Rebif experiences? Good? Bad? Nothing?

I innocently hoped that my diagnosis was either incorrect or 'slight', so I ignored it and did everything – I was a very keen cyclist and runner. But in the past fiv...

New Meds: Rebif Vs Avonex

Hey guys! It’s been a long time since I’ve posted on here. Truthfully I haven’t been well, I was on copaxone and that wasn’t working for me so I came off of it in April. Now my neuro wants me to choose between Rebif and Avonex. Does anyone have experience with either of those DMTs?
