Injecting
Have just had the first discussion about medication. I’ll be injecting....tell me this is no where near as bad as my brain is making it out to be!! I’ve been asked to read up before my next call, recommended interferon...any advice?

@staceyelena , you'll find that the thought of injections is a lot worse than the actual injection itself. As to the choice of Disease Modifying Therapy (DMT), you have been offered a first line DMT, which is now 30 years old. Better treatments are available. The latest thinking is to hit the MS hard and fast with the most efficacious treatment. This tries to avoid your MS getting worse as you step up through the DMTs.

It's something you get use to, even my husband injected me when I couldn't get to centain sites and he's really terrified of all things especially of injections but he got use to it, you can use an auto injection which is really easy to use you can't see the injection don't worry you will get use to it.
