AUBAGIO

hello, everyone. about a year ago I tested positive for JCV & then the connections with Gilenya came out. I stopped taking the meds & went on Dr. Jelinek's "Overcoming MS Diet". I lost 30lbs in 6 months & felt great. I have not been so great with the diet over the past several months & put about 20 back on - ugh, have to start again! Needless to say, I saw my neurologist today, who was not too happy that I stopped taking the meds. Now, I have not had any flare ups and any of my tingles, burnings, stabbings, dizziness, blurriness - all the things we all feel - they come and go, but I have been fortunate to have no lingering effects. So she decided to try & scare me with the "historically, those who go off their DMTs have a bad relapse & are hit hard within a year or two." Now, I have finally gotten a really good job and the family is doing well. I dont want to have to take meds if I dont have too, but I also dont want to get sucker punched with a bad relapse and lose the ground and all positives I've gained this past 7 months. She suggested AUBAGIO. Has anyone got any experience with this? Please let me know. I have to do new bloodwork & new MRI (had lesions on brain & spinal cord). So will know more soon. THANKS everyone! Wayne

Omg that's exactly what I'm going through right now and that's the question am asking too, I went on steroids last week due to my relapse which I ended up not feeling my feet they where cold as but warm on the outside. MRI is clear no changes from my previous MRI. I'm on no meds and asked to take aubagio. So that's the question Wayne. MS for 17 years now. Smile Ana

@WayneXXL

hopefully there will be somebody here that can elaborate a little bit for both of us!
