Hi All! Is anybody really struggling with Avonex? Side effects and actually doing the injection?

After almost six years of being on Tecfidera I am being moved to a weekly injection called Avonex. The change is due to low white blood count. Having read through the booklet it seems straight forward. Has anyone any experience of Avonex?

In an hour I'm meant to be doing my first avonex injection. I'm still really 50/50 on whether I should do it. I've read lots of horror stories and I'm scared it's going to wreck every weekend for me.
