Starting treatment

Hi I've had MS since 1989 and it's been very mild. I've recently had a MRI which shows new lesions, one which is causing low epilepsy. Now started treatment for that. I've also got to start MS treatment. I was going to try Tecfidera. Can anyone give me any advice on whether to try that or injections. Many thanks

I was on daily injections - Copaxone, for a year but my consultant put me on Tecfidera 5 months ago. It's about 20/25% better than Copaxone apparently. It has certainly improved my symptoms. Your Consultant should talk it through with you though.

Thanks for that. Glad it's improving for you. I'm bit worried about the GI side affects. Have you had any ?
