been fighting m.s. for many many years now

Hi name is tom, i'm new to sight, been fighting m.s. for many many years now, it's starting to really get the best of me. had a baclofen pump implanted in my stomache about 5 yrs ago to keep me walking, been on copaxon, then something else forget what it was, now on rebiff with auto injector but i forget to do shots so i've pretty much given up on those, I've been reading some of the Posts, wow it's kind of nice to know i'm not the only one going through all this, Pain is my biggest problem, feel like giving up walking, hurts so bad to walk or stand for any lenght of time. my spine is covred with the m.s. there going to start putting delotted in my pump this comming wednesday, to try and get some relief, anyone know anything about this drug and side effects, look forward to hearing back, would really love to chat with others suffering from m.s.

Re: been fighting m.s. for many many years now

Welcome to the boards.

Do you have a power chair? You might do well to try using the chair about 25-50% of the time to see if this allows you to get some relief. Stretching daily will help. I use the Exercycle for passive exercise. I cannot tell you about meds, but a visit to the manufacturer's web site might help in learning about side effects. You sound like you are in need of some prayers! I will be praying for you!
