Congrats! IMHO, a DMT is essential to battling this MonSter. I just celebrated by 26th year dx anniversary, and it will be my 23rd anniversary of starting Avonex this upcoming September.

Back when I was first dx, the only tx available was Beta (which was dispensed via a lottery). Three years after my dx, I started on Avonex (September 1997) when my follow up MRI showed tons of "silent progression."

Although still no cure, a DMT is essential to a smart MS Strategy. Congrats on starting your tx. Best wishes as you begin your newest journey! :)

Caved???? It's not a sign of weakness to take positive steps toward the future. You are already strong or else you wouldn't have taken on the responsibility of a beautiful dog who will always need you. Any steps you take to maintain your strength, honors that commitment.

Good luck. I’m personally glad you made the decision. We are fortunate to have so many options, compared to what people with MS had available 30+ years ago (no treatment).
