I had been having a reaction to copaxone and went off of the injections about 6 months ago.  Feeling like I need to help myself somehow, I started taking 8,ooo IU's of vitamin D in an emulsion that I got from my chiropractor.  She also suggested I get off of gluten, refined sugar and dairy.  Within 1 month my persistant symptoms are gone.  My head is clearer, my energy levels and way up ( I don't feel like I need a nap after work) and the most shocking change is that I no longer have that radiating pain when I put my neck down.  I am faithful to staying away from the gluten (save a cookie on Christmas), but I have had dairy and sugar in sparse intervals.  I believe the biggest change has come from the vitamin D.  I missed it for a couple of days--wondering why I was doing it--and started to feel worse.  After I made the connection, I never want to be without it.  I still haven't had my levels tested, but am planning on having it done within the month.    It seems crazy that no matter how often I have asked my neurologist about vitamin and diet therapy, he says it does not make a difference.  It is maddening and promotes distrust.  I hope the absence of symptoms continues for me and I wish you well.....
