I fucking hate these commercials! As I quickly progress they make me feel hopeless and like I have failed in my fight.

I’ve reported ads to the FDA for over stating the manufacturers label. It’s fairly easy to do, though not sure this admin will do anything about it.

Jan 27, 2025 my wife died- she was 49, one month away from her 50th. Progressive MS. She was on 3 or 4 drugs under the illusion that they were "maybe helping to slow down the disease." (shrugs) maybe they were... who the hell knows?

Oh wow! I live in Canada and have never seen an ad for MS meds.

That tracks. Canada doesn’t allow direct-to-consumer prescription drug ads the way the U.S. does. Not many countries do allow them. I’ve only started seeing MS drug commercials here in the U.S. in the last couple of months. Now I see them daily.

This feels personal Sam, sending hugs if that's helpful 😊 I'm still recovering from Sunday, after cooking my mum & wife an early Xmas lunch so they could relax. I could barely walk or breathe on Monday. Feeling slightly human today thankfully. Hope you have a great Xmas whatever you're up to 😀
