Decided to stop meds

I have decided to stop Tecfidera, I was using it for 7 months and was getting sick of feeling really bloated and people asking if I was pregnant, I was start to get diarrhea with incontinence of the bowel. Lucky I'm currently not working because that would've been really embarrassing. So decided to stop the meds, just not worth it, I was scared to go out just in-case I go to the toilet in my pants. I feel meds just don't agree with me because all the MS meds I have been on I get bad side affects. I am scared of what will happen but think what ever God has install for me I will accept. Maybe I'm not suppose to be on medication. So I have decided to the diet thing which I was doing anyway but will be stricter on myself more. Just wanted to share with people that understand.

I really do. I stopped taking all the bloody pills months ago still trying to cure the constipation they caused. Lol. Don't feel any worse. Not telling the nurse in case they decide I'm SP. Then no new stuff if it comes along. Think about it. Good luck.

@Juls

"the diet thing" is a very good idea, a book called "overcoming multiple sclerosis" by Professor Jelinik is very good as it the website by the same name. I read it and have adopted some of it because I not that disciplined. But it has a lot of very good information in it about essential fatty acids "omega 3" and the effects of saturated fat on inflammatory diseases.
