Stopped treatment?

Hi there. I’m 35 years old with RRMS. I’ve been diagnosed with Feb ‘12 and have been on Copaxone, Rebif, Aubagio, and Tecfidera. Tecfidera worked best for me, however a change in my employer’s insurance companies created major difficulties in continuing with this treatment and since I knew I’d be changing jobs in the next few months, I simply stopped taking it altogether. I’ve now been off of all meds for 3 months and it will be another 3 months before I’m able to get back on insurance and check out my options. I’d basically like to know if anyone else has suddenly stopped their treatments and if so, how did you feel in the days/weeks/months that followed? I did speak with my doctor and she didn’t have much to offer in terms of advice, although she did say she’d help me get back started once I decided to go that direction. Any information would be greatly appreciated.

@elisej84 I’m sorry to hear about your predicament. I suggest you try contacting the drug company directly (they usually have a patient line) and ask them if they can help you out. Aubagio’s one to one said that they could give me me a one month supply for free. It’s worth asking...and one month is better than nothing. Best of luck!
