Avonex & Mood
Hi There,
Just wondering if any of you Avonex users have experienced mood swings on injection day?
I have been noticing less ability to regulate my emotions. A few times I've completely lost it... flipped my lid at kids, spouse, etc. Maybe it's just due to not feeling well because of flu like side effects but I also noticed that depression was listed as a side effect.
Look forward to hearing your experiences.
