Treatments

I've got to make a decision on treatment by tomorrow.. and I don't know where to start. Which is the better treatment.. Dimethyl fumarte Glatiramer Interferons I've been reading for the past month and still not picked the one I want to start on. Some advice would be great 😀

Hi I was on tecfidera or dimethyl fumarate for 2 years and it did not help me. The only side effects I had was flushing feeling very hot and my face and upper body getting very red and feeling very itchy, it settled down after a few months but still happened about once a week, but until you start taking it you won't know what side effects you will have. I tried 2 different DMTS which were unsuccessful. I was eventually offered a Stem Cell transplant which up to now has shown no further lesions or further deterioration. Maybe it might be worth speaking to your neurologist again as it takes about 2 years for these drugs to work or not and then you will have 2 years wasted. My neurologist said this was the route many Neurologist are suggesting. Hope you get the results you want.
