re: Depression, docs & drugs

[Guest guest]

I cannot believe the docs did not know/tell you that depression is definitely a side effect of some of the ABCR drugs (all but Copaxone, I think). I thought everyone knew this. ly, I don't think most of them have or make the time to read anything about drugs, other than what the drug reps tell them.

Sure, depression can go with MS, but not necessarily. I really haven't had any at all.

I never go to my doctor now, without hauling along a copy of "Worst Pills, Best Pills" or another pill look-up book, so I can look it up and read before I accept the Rx. They're a bit disconcerted at first but they are used to me now.
