As my list of medications change and grow and learning the right combination and dosage has not realy been difficult, so yes pretty much satisfied, however I just recently learned that to be careful of running out of one of them, though it might not have been the issue, but one of the effects of cold stop of it can, repeat can, cause an issue I recently experienced, not life threatening but very very uncomfortable. So now with the disruptions in supply chains, longer mail and delivery times, and discussion with my doctors, a plan is in place so such should not happen again.

@Courtney_J I haven't had much luck with the biological drugs and what did work did a number on my body. I stop going to the doctors I have been sick since I was 18 and I'm 56 now. My life has sucked, well I start looking into juicing and the health benefits of all the different foods. I've been doing this since Oct and now I feel amazingly good. I am taking no meds just nutrition exactly what every doctor told me would make me worse. But you have to do research on this before someone starts something like this.

I am completely satisfied with all my medications and current treatment. My vision problems have gotten much better. I have gone six months without having to get the eye injections. Hope I can keep this up!

I have a baclofen pump that is now used with Prialt and that is my game changer. The pump was filled with morphine for years for pain control. It is now filled with Prialt which is derived from the poison of a cone snail. It can only be administered through an intrathecal pain pump.

Zoloft...has helped me immensely. Suffered from debilitating panic attacks back in the late nineties. I've been taking it for nearly 25 years with no side effects, and panic attacks have been a rarity.

I believe my Ocrevus has changed my life dramatically. I get the infusion twice a year.

Hello everyone,
How are you today?
I thought I'd open this discussion so that we can talk about our medications!
What do you think of your medication? Has it helped improve your condition? How long did it take you to find the right prescription? Have you had to switch medicines over time? Have you had any side effects?
Feel free to share here!
Take care,
Courtney
