Tecfidera... Help!

Hi everyone! I was diagnosed 2 years ago with RRMS and after having a relapse in February, I have decided to start on Tecfidera next month. Has anyone got any advice? What is it like? I have heard that the side effects are awful. Any info would be really appreciated! Thanks Mary :)

Hi Mary I was diagnosed with rrms January just gone and have been on tecfa for about 4months now. I read loads of horror stories about it before starting and was really scared but It's not actually that bad. I know everyone reacts differently and may not all be the same but I only had regular flushing and some occasional stomach cramps. As long as you take it with a meal you should be ok. Also it's a bonus not having to inject yourself and it's supposed to cut relapses by 50% :) all the best x

I'm hoping to start it soon and it does sound like the best option for me - no jabs is a major plus :) Sonia x
