The Copaxone is great Chris - don't forget to take it. It gets easier after the first few hundred times - LOL!

Try very hard not to directly hit a vein. You will know when you have - you will flush head to toe and feel ...

HiCy & Returning Relapse Rate?

As a short backgrounder, I have had MS for 14 years but you would never know it by looking at me. I work 10 hour days at work and don't seem to have some of the problems some of the other MS'ers ha...
