I have permission to post the following:

A mother in the Breastfeeding Support Group I moderate has MS and recently experienced a flair up.  Her doctor is planning on initiating Copaxone.  I have provided the mother with the current information on breastfeeding and Copaxone from Dr. T. Hale and other well known breastfeeding references.  Mom is looking for personal experiences with Copaxone; either health care providers who have worked with mothers who have taken this drug and/or mothers who have utilized Copaxone while breastfeeding.

She is in the decision making process and would really like some more information.

If you could please contact me off group at [log in to unmask] and give me permission to share your responses with the mother, she and I would greatly appreciate it. 

Thank you,
