Thanks for the info -- sleep deprivation CAUSES seizures too -- that was part of the problem I didn't have the clonazepam and didn't sleep -- I have no MS symptoms just the optic neuritis and then what they found on the MRI -- I have been to no less than 4 neurologists and one more soon early August who specializes in MS -- the upshot is that everyone thinks do the copaxone because of all the studies are saying. Thanks for the tip on the curry. I have to deal with the insomnia thing because the STRESS is and has been at an all time high for years and years. The diag I have (and have gotten before is) on going Post traumatic stress because it is the stress that never ends -- it is external but is wears the immune system out -- like the thyroid thing they are sort of mesh together but they all are caused by the excessive stress and you can't just walk away from your family -- at least I can't but you can't control their actions either and being the mother you are (I am) the center of the wheel. They do not think that the MS is going much of anywhere based statistically on how it is proceeding and no attacks and how it started, etc, etc. but who knows ... right now I have to deal with the stress all around and the anticipation of the clonazepam w/d -- and I have to get off the stuff because it has strange side effects -- which is why I wanted off of it in the first place that ... well anyway ... thanks.
