Newly diagnosed, rebif is hard!

Hi everyone I was diagnosed the week before Christmas. The world's worst neurologist told me to pick my own meds and let him know what I want to take (have scheduled an appointment with a better neuro but he can only see me end of april) Anyway I chose rebif and started 2 weeks ago. Has anyone found that it makes their symptoms feel worse the next day? Apart from nausea and body aches i am finding that my feet and legs feel weird and my balance isn't so good. Almost like my knees don't know what to do when I'm walking. I'm so worried I'm having a mild relapse but I'm a serial over thinker, and I don't want to see the same neurologist because his philosophy is basically "there's the wheelchair, bye" Any other tips for dealing with rebif side effects will be most welcome! Also - anyone know if it's fine to take muscle relaxants on rebif?

It's been many years now since i took Rebif but i remember the first couple of weeks were tough. Felt like i had flu the day after injection. It definitely got better though xx
