Post 618 Calm yourself 14 Mar 2020
I took my one
Tecfidera
tablet at six am and will take another at six pm. Do you see NORMAL. In between times I will eat, talk to my joint dog. Do chirrups as I walk back and forth thru my bedroom door. I think today I will try for the sixties.

Home from the Neuro
If my numbers continue to drop then he said I can take a break from the
Tecfidera
for my numbers to go back up then I can go back on it. If I were to switch to something else, I would have to be off the
Tecfidera
for awhile anyway. He said he did that for another patient and it is working out well.

Unnumbered post DMT, YES I am on it 9 Feb 2020
Tecfidera
is around 35% effective. not 100%. I expect change but am aware that I am slowing disease progression and no more than that. Exercise and diet with a strong attitude also help. Any diet that does not cost me a fortune is a good idea.

My dentist' assistant has MS as well!
She asked what DMT I was on, and I explained to her that I was on
Tecfidera
because Copaxone was leaving me with no more injection sites even when I went to the 3 times a week dose. She said that was her first med as well and she had scars from it that she switched to Ocrevus and she loves it!

Post 582 Medicines 3 Jan 2020
There are alternatives to needles,
Tecfidera
a twice-daily tablet, Ocrevus an infusion every six months. There are other alternatives, look for them. I did learn when I was taking Interferon Beta 1b that it was best to inject into a fatty part of my body.

Post 609 Just diagnosed 3 Mar 2020
I prefer the constant reminder of a twice a day tablet (
Tecfidera
) but I really do not like needles. Go look up a Dr Aaron Boster MD of the Ohio ms clinic on YOUTUBE and watch his articles. Follow the msGym on Facebook (I think) Start following the American Cancer eating guidelines.

Now positive for JC Virus Antibody
Before starting
Tecfidera
, my Neuro tested me for it and I was negative for this (at least that is what I thought, though MyChart didn't exist here at that point..2+years ago).

Post 536 side effects 8 Oct 2019
None on
Tecfidera
, and it is a tablet so no needles. Yaay as I have a needle phobia. There are side effects with pretty much everything, especially this condition. Have "YOU" noticed that birth has a guaranteed side effect? A fatal condition.

Post 530 Frustration 1 Oct 2019
Sorry, I forgot to tell “YOU that I take
Tecfidera
and am not an employee of anybody, sorry. Back to our frustration. Things will happen over your ms journey, just like things happen in life.

HAS ANYONE WHO IS ON TECFIDERA GOTTEN THE SHINGRIX VACCINE?
I was told by my neuro not to take it as the
Tecfidera
would negate its action. Has anyone who is using
Tecfidera
as a DMT gotten this vaccine? Did you get advice from your neuro first? How was the experience? Thanks to anyone who can answer this!

I need to try something
I am wondering about
Tecfidera
. I have been feeling like I am dying so I am wondering if I should try something. I lost my spleen when I was 18 and I have had some trouble with Injectibles. I have not been treated in several years.

nice to see new names
I could put on my yellow construction helmet and my hi vis vest and imagine the
Tecfidera
running through my head repairing ms damage. Diverting it and doing construction work. I must find “Bob the Builder” music online. Such are the games we play.

It’s been a while.
Now I wait for my insurance to approve and the month it takes to be of the
tecfidera
. I’m just taking this all one day at a time.

Libido
Hi All, I started
Tecfidera
5 months ago and my sex drive is gone. Reaching orgasm is impossible. I have always had a very high sex drive and now zilch. My lesions are in the thoracic area but it didn't effect me until I started the meds. Has anybody else had experience with this med/problem?

It is cold
Let’s be honest, I had to wake at 6am to take my first daily
Tecfidera
dose, and I really should do some more exercise, Walking might be a good idea. Also I should at some stage think of breakfast. I am really unlikely to think to much about my RRms.

30mg or 60mg of Cymbalta?
Amitriptyline 25mg
Tecfidera
240mg Cymbalta 30mg once a day but have been prescribed 30mg x 2. Just wondering if anyone has noticed a reduction in their pain going from 30 to 60 and if so do they space their doses 30mg am and 30mg pm? Thank you.

Accredo really can't make up their mind
I had told them in January to take me off their list because I fill my
Tecfidera
through my mail order pharmacy (Express Scripts). Feb and March they kept calling and I refilled through them. Now April I was able to fill through Express Scripts and not a peep from them!
