Making Decisions

I have finally made the decision to stop medication. May 20th was my last injection. Two days before my 31st birthday. I have been feeling tingling in my arms and legs on and off for the past week or so but I have had that while on the medication so I am not worried. I feel strong and positive and ready to take on the world. I take my vitamins on a regular basis, I eat well and I'm going to join the gym soon.

What incouraged me to finally make this decision was when I called up the neurologist I used to visit before my current doctor. I explained to him I have been on the drugs for more then 2 and half years and I was ready to take a break. I was never dependent on drugs for five years before i started them and I don't want to be on them now. He was the first doctor who said what I wanted to hear. He said it would be fine to stop. It just took a doctor to tell me that and I finally felt I could do it! NO FEAR! That is the most important part. I could get off the drug with complete confidence. With the will of God, I am going to be better then ever before. My body will do its own healing with my support to my immune system. I believe in the miracle of my body and I know it is capable of unraveling my MS.
