The pain I felt as a symptom of the disease was nothing in comparison to the anguish of potentially not being able to take care of my children. Thankfully, I was prescribed a new medication ­ a pill that alleviated my symptoms and changed my life. Today, my symptoms have gone, I have no pain, no relapses and no fear. www.canadapharma.org/hope
