Hi @FionaD I was diagnosed in July last year and started Aubagio at the end of September. So far no hair loss or even thinning and only side effect has been that my persistent constipation has gone - I’m way more, ahem, regular now which is great! I was on fortnightly bloods for the first six months and my ALT (liver enzymes) levels went up so moved to weekly bloods for a month or so, but it all seems to have calmed down now and I’ve been moved to bloods every two months. I had an MRI with contrast about 2 weeks ago (due to suspected optic neuritis) and it came back with no new lesions and no inflammation so that’s good. Overall I’m really happy with Aubagio. I hope it works well for you 🤞
