Avonex to Rebif-what can I expect?

Hey all, Continue to have relapses on Avonex so trying Rebif. I'm grand symptom wise with Avonex but I'm Irish and stubborn and everything is made ok with a cup of tea! What can I expect? Cheers, Dels x

It seems that both Avonex and Rebif are both formulations of Interferon beta-1a, although Rebif seems to be a higher strength and has been seen to perform better than Avonex in reducing relapses. The injection regimes are different too.

Yup I'm cool with the injections but wondered if FLS is thrice as offensive? I tend to have a great capacity to grit my teeth and smile thru pain but just wanted to be mentally prepared for 3 days of gritting?!
