Flu symptoms for the first 25 to 48 hours. Extreme fatigue and shivers were the worst I had.
I had a really rough time with the first dose. A lot of people have mild symptoms and some have none. I had fever, chills, headache, stomach upset, body aches and was dizzy. I took Tylonol and Benedryl before injecting and drank lot of water. The next two loding doses were easier. It took my body about 6 months to fully adjust but I am extremely sensitive to any medications. I’ve been on it for over 2 years now and my MS is stable and now I look forward to injecting and feel like I have a big energy boost after.
