AVONEX TIP #15


I have also had the same problem, I call them chills times 100. Mine hurt soo bad. I take 2 excedrine and 2 aleve at the time of my shot and then take a tylenol w/codeine at bedtime to "relieve" the symptoms. I have talked with my neuro and Biogen and they have both said that I am just "extra sensitive" to the meds. They also told me that it can take up to a full year for some people to get used to the med, and because of the benefits I am willing to
stay on it for a year and hope that the symptoms will subside. Take care and know that you are not alone with the "shocking chills".
