I had Sinusitis end of August last year for the first time after a cold it made my asthma unbearable. The GP gave me the wrong antibiotic which didn't treat it and it became chronic.

I was on Avonex for 18 years and went off a couple years ago , it just wasn't helping any longer. A year ago I tried Ocrevus but did not have a good experience with the infusion.

The older drugs, Avonex, Beta seron\feron rebid, tecfidera copaaxone have a longer history but are less effective in reducing relapses rate. So “YOU might want to look at the two newer ones I mentioned. “YOU” are taking responsibility for yourself, so do your research.

Following on from the posts about antibiotics. I have looked at the useful information re: asthma and chest infections on the site and am still not sure where I am with it. I had an asthma flare up last week following a good spell and a decrease of Seretide 250 dosage to 1 puff 2 x per day alongside

Hi, I've been on Avonex for about 15 years. I retired this year at the age of 65 and through my insurance company got 3 months of Avonex. I am at the end of my last refill. My neurologist has me switching to every 2 weeks until it runs out. The problem is Medicare does not cover the drug.

Does anyone use Avonex? I’m just wondering because I started Ocrevus but lost a lot of hair. Was wondering if some of you still use Avonex?
