I looked at this video and am going VERY far out on a limb, now. I am remembering my nutritional biochemistry. Alcohol is metabolized to acetaldeyhde (very toxic) by alcohol dehydrogenase. Acetaldehyde is metabolized to acetate by ALDEHYDE DEHYDROGENASE. Would drinking alcohol decrease the effectiveness of he HiCy?

Scratch that..It's acetaldehyde dehydrogenase that metabolizes acetaldehyde.

I know that it's been mentioned before, but what's the dose of Copaxone that HiCyers are currently on? It's a lot higher than the standard dose, no?

I'm on the standard dose. I use just one regular Copaxone needle each day.

The dose for HiCy patient is one standard shot per day.
