GODFIDENCE!
Hello, I was diagnosed with MS in August 2011. I then obtained a second opinion which it was confirmed October 2011. I then began to look for a physician that specialized in MS. In the first meeting with my physician, two of the first questions I asked is, 1.Will I have/need to give up wearing

MS for 19 years but holding my own
I was diagnosed in 1997, injected Avonex for 10 years, then switched to Tysabri. Just had my 113th infusion at Johns Hopkins!

Still going after ALL these years.
Hi everyone! I am Mary Ellen Anderson, and I have MS. I was diagnosed Sept 10, 1998. I had mono that spring, and I think THAT is why I got MS. I wasn't put on meds until 2000, cause I didn't need them, or so my dr thought. I first went on Avonex, and was on that for 8 1/2 years. I had SIDE EFFECTS

Long term use of Avonex, after age 60, new to site
I will be 64 in November and this year I will have been on Avonex 7 years. My doctor wants me to continue on Avonex, I would like to stop taking this or any other DM drug because of side effects. I am certain these drugs are not tested on the older population, but worry about the "what if I did stop,

M.A.S. Multiple Autoimmune Syndrome
Diagnosed with MS in 2000, I injected betaseron then rebif then finally avonex for 9 years. My body began rejecting the interferons, injection sites were even leaking. I had no place left to poke. I then opted to stop treatment and go as healthy natural as I could. I found Charlotte's Web CBD oil

Hello, anyone else in a similar situation
Dec of 2013 had a kidney stone on each side. During the process small lowgrade cancerous tumors were found in my bladder. I had to go to a urologist every 3 months to have a cycstoscope run in me to check for tumors. After about 6 months I was given an Xray and they possibly saw a mass on my right kidney

Avonex vs Copaxone
Hi everyone! I was just diagnosed Aug. 2nd and will be starting treatment Septmeber 12th. I have narrowed it down to avonex and Copaxone, yet I'm still unsure which one to go with. Does anyone have any experience or could possibly help me weigh out the pros and cons. Feeling a little overwhelmed. Thank

REBIF 1st shot yesterday UPDATE
I know it was just my 1st injection and I was so worried about the pain from more injections and the flu-like symptoms. I was on Avonex years ago and they were painful because I had to put the meds right into the muscle. I also have been on Lovenox shots so many times for my blood clotting disorder,

MS for at least 36 years
My MS was diagnosed in 1980 after several years of symptoms. I was on Avonex for 3 years (2001-2004) and then Copaxone (2006-2009) but currently am taking no MS drugs, though I do take 5,000 IU of vitamin D3 daily. I taught in the Chicago City College system for several years and have a Ph.D. I also

All I want is a decent size sharps container!
Can anyone tell me where I can get a big sharps container? I requested one from Briova for my used Avonex pins and what they sent me is barely bigger than a juice glass. Seriously? What am I going to do with that? I've always gotten the large containers from them in the past. And then there's the

Scalp Psoriasis Treatment.
Is there any effective treatment to reduce the scale and inflamation? -Hello there. I've recently had a bad flare up with my scalp psoriasis. It is getting quite annoying and not going away. I have some dovobet gel my doctor has given me previously. However, this doesn't come out of my hair too well,

HOW CAN I PROTECT psoriasis on my elbows, it is very sore and angry. I keep hitting it on edges and it is exceptionally painful. HELP!
Additionally the Dovobet I have used for a few years does not now seem to help, can you develop a resistance to some ointments?
