CZ -
Wishing you all the best with your decision tomorrow. Don't worry about either choice you make - you making it, and that is all that matters at this very moment.

Hope your spasms are getting a little better.

Be well,
Shelly

I agree. There ISN'T a wrong choice. Just the one that you think will fit you. And it's not carved in stone. You can change if it isn't right.

Make sure the doc knows ALL about your spasms.

Thanks you guys! I'll be talking w/ Dr today I hope. I have chosen Copaxone. With my school and ER schedule, it will fit the best. As far as the cramping goes... it has calmed down to a constant tight muscle so I think it's getting better. I'm going to request a RX for Skelaxin (Methocarbamol) to help. It's a non narcotic/sedating muscle relaxer I can take during the day. I'm also considering trying samples of that med to help w/ fatigue... Provigil? Do you guys know if it can be taken PRN? Or, is it a everyday med in order for it to work?

Ok, well gotta go to work... I work a 12 hr shift today... YUCK! But I have tomorrow off. Everyday worked helps pay for the insurance to pay for the med... so no complaining really.

Have an AWESOME DAY!
