Switching meds

Well after a summer of infections I've had to switch from Tysabri to Aubagio. Two life flights to the hospital with sepsis has made that decision for me. I have been on the Aubagio for over a month now with no problems except one small infection that I handled myself. I will be going in for an MRI in January and hopefully with good results. I haven't had to worry about losing my hair which is a common side effect with this medicine only because I'm practically bald anyway. If you have any questions feel free to ask but in the meantime I will post another painting I finished a couple weeks ago. Love you guys and may your holidays be joyful.

Hi. My aubagio experience has been great....5yrs no changes on my mri s and my hair is long sometimes seat on. I do eat organic foods lots of vegetables and fruits..Steelcut.oats with cinnamon and nutmeg and a little maple syrup with fruits or yogurt. Aubagio can cause runny 2. So to avoid that eat well. I don't even have to use contrast with my steady results year after year. Best thing is you forget to take it in the morning you have 24 hours. Blessings Cynthia Love your artwork ❤

Wow what an experience!! I pray that aubagio is the answer for you. I just started eating a lot of fruits and veggies too and steel cut oats. I think that helps me

I take Aubagio as well, for years actually. It's been good for me. Hopefully it'll be good for you as well.
