AVONEX TIP #10


I have been on avonex for almost 3 years, and well I can say the whole needles thing doesn't get any easier, I'm on ejection no 152 and you'll have side effects with every med and I can tell you for me the first time was the worst and now I barely have side effects at all ( they are more a little worse when I am close to my cycle but that is the only time I really
notice.) The only thing I feel is sensitive to hot & cold and sometimes I'll get a headache, and slight joint pain. I know others may have it worse. I consider myself lucky, but I do have a fear of needles and that part is not easy for me. Good luck and I hope everything goes well, I can tell you a lot of my symptoms went away with the shots and that’s why I make myself go through with it every time. It's either the needle or the other outcome and none of us want to get worse. I guess if I think it "might help" I'm willing to do something incredibly uncomfortable to get there. Again good luck, and keep your spirits up having a good outlook and something to look forward to helps a lot. Lori- Posted by Lady D
