Hello Chris, I do feel for you. My first injection was a nightmare I couldn't sleep, felt exhausted and fatigue played a major part of it. Began to wonder what the hell I was getting myself into. Persevere with it. It will get easier.
Today is my birthday. I am 43. Diagnosed almost 3 months ago. I was 29 when my neuro symptoms started.

Hi all, hope you all as well as can be.

Does anyone have any experience of this drug for nerve pain and anxiety/depression ?
I've recently been prescribed 30mg of this instead of Amitriptyline 20mg and Citalopram 20mg.

I have started gabapentin a few days ago and wondered if this is coincidence or a side effect I should p...
Hello fellow MSers, just wanted to crowdsource some advice if I may…
I was diagnosed very quickly in Aug 2020 (as a hospital inpatient) and I started treatment in Nov (copaxone). I was offered cladribine from the off, but I discounted it because I was worried about having a compromised immune syste...
