Was on MS for 3 years. I kept having to increase in order for it to continue to help. It made me nervous. So I moved to a warm, dry climate where I feel better (not great, but better) and tapered off the MS. It took about 10 days. Now take Vicaden if nec. Sometimes still have pain, but I dont worry about the drug so much.
