I am going to neuro today. I get severe vertigo, nausea, vision blurrs and this last symptom is the one that scares the hell out of me..For the last 4-5 years I have had this weird thing happen in head. I will be laying in bed and it is as if someone wound up a rubber band and lets it go in my head. There is no pain, I suffer from headaches as well, but not neccessarily at same time. It is very scary!!! I am shook up for a few min. afterward. Please, does any one else know what I am talking about? I have been searching forever on the net trying to find someone else with same symptom. Please, let me know. It comes very unexpected and goes as fast as it came. It lasts for a second and then gone, I then have a tingly sensation in head for a few minutes. It is almost like a electric shock

goddess...you say you're doing well on copaxone. I was recently diagnosed with MS (relapsing-remitting), and I'm still deciding whether or not to do treatment. I'm leaning towards yes, though. My neuro recommends copaxone. I don't like the idea of daily injections, but I suppose I'd get used to it. So my question to you is....do you (or have you) experience any side effects from the copaxone? I've heard one can get flu-like symptoms as well as other possible side effects. I realize everyone will react differently to it, but at this point...I'm looking for positive feedback of any sort. I haven't had any major flare-ups beside optic neuritis back in March. I do have the fatigue every day, and occasional vertigo. Also muscle twitches.
