Traveling

I was just wondering if anyone have traveled to America on a work visa and what did they do about their medication as I'm on rebif. And health insurance and things like that. Is it realistic?

Medication when traveling

This may be a really stupid question but better to be safe than sorry 😅 I have never travelled on a plane with my medication (dimethyl fumarate) If people have and can help that would be great. Am I overthinking it, Is it as easy as just putting in your bag as normal and they will just check it ...

Traveling alone?

Hi everyone! Hope you are all doing well. So this June I am taking a trip to Italy with my family. I'm so excited for this, I've never been before and have always wanted to go!

Traveling with MS

Hi everyone, so I've not done any traveling abroad for approx. 10 years (just not had the opportunity) and therefore haven't taken any trips since being diagnosed with RRMS. I'm thinking about joining some friends on a city break to NYC next year (a place on my bucket list). I know it's going to be...

Traveling and medication transportation?

Hi, I'm planning a one month trip to Vietnam for next year and I'm curious to know how you people would carry one month of medication supplies (more like 5 weeks of daily doses. One extra week for safety) since I don't think I would be able to find my meds (or wouldn't feel safe buying meds there b...

Traveling To Malaysia

Hi Folks, Any tips for traveling to Kuala Lumpur with MS? I booked my trip before I was diagnosed and have traveled there every year for the last 12 years, but never with MS. I have been on Tecfidera for 2 months now and am just starting to deal with the side effects (which are getting better). I a...
