Going Off Ampryra After 3 Months (Page 2)

I got off ampyra after taking for 3 months because I felt it did not help my walking and caused other problems. I was not happy putting up with insomnia but was willing to tolerate if it was a tradeoff with walking. Since being off the medicine for one week my walking is terrible and balance worse than when I started. Has anyone else noticed problems when they stopped taking medicine after a 3 month period. I still feel the ampyra did not help but do not understand why I am worse off now than when I started the med.

Just got off ampyra after 4 months. I was diagnosed with ms around 12 years ago. I have gotten to the point where I have to use a walker to walk and even struggle with that. My husband does American Ninja Warrior and they did a story on my MS. Dr. West just saw the story and reached out to me and we started going to his Clinic about 6 weeks ago. The clinic is absolutely amazing and it's definitely worth checking out. He found a lot of lyme in my blood. I have started to feel better already and I'm still very early on in treatments. Please check out his Clinic. Dr. Jason West 208-232-3216. westcliniconline.com.
