Amprya Review

I have MS for over twenty years. I must say I have been blessed I have been very active and mobile for most of those years, I took avonex for ten years. The first five or six were very good I stayed very active, just had few flu like symptoms at first. The next five or so years things changed gradually started going down. The medication wasn't doing me any good anymore. I went for a year or so doing nothing and I wasn't better but I wasn't that much worse. I was so excited to hear bout amprya. Just like everyone else my expectations were high. I have taken Ampyra for about 3 months. First month and a half notice some good change in my energy and coordination, although I had insomnia, when I did sleep had horrible, bizarre dreams. I was dealing with that, but now I am having balance problems (worse than I already had) and I think my walking is worse. I like Alice thought it could be the heat, I live in Louisiana. I guess I will give it tell the weather cools some, but I am ready to quit. God Bless, Do what you can let God do the rest.

I have been on Amprya for over 1 year and have had great responses. I had a bad foot drop before and was using a cane. Now I walk with no cane and my foot drop has almost disappeared. I have had MS for 21 years and also take Copaxone daily. I have had sleeping issues my whole life so I cannot say if Ampyra has made it any worse. For me, this drug has made my life much more mobile!
