Complacency comes before a fall…

Oh. Diagnosed 2020 aged 56. On Aubagio ever since. MRIs stable, no new symptoms, no new lesions. Had my annual MRI on Friday prior to my annual check up on July 1st.

Hi, has anyone got experience of starting a DMD after years of finishing and essentially opting out? I've been assigned a new consultant and I'm looking into being approved for one? Has anyone been turned down? Back in the day I had Copaxone and Avonex for a few years.

Copaxone side effects

Morning all. I was using Copaxone for many years, but stopped around three years ago due to experiencing awful side effects. I used to inject myself in privacy when nobody was at home. One occasion I injected into my right thigh, then experienced what can only be described as a feeling that I was h...

Alternative/Complimentary treatments.

It’s been a year now since I was last on a conventional dmt. In the earlier years of my multiple sclerosis before my first dmd, I just tried taking vitamins and supplements, Bowen technique (massage) and Reiki energy healing to treat MS. I’m wondering if anyone has had experience of having other alt...

Mavenclad

Hey, I'm soon to switch DMD's from Brabbio to Mavenclad. I'd appreciate any feedback from people that either use Mavenclad, or have stopped using Brabbio. I'm also wondering; how do you tell what is a side-effect from the DMD itself rather than a symptom of MS in general? I've been having some ver...
