    Have the same kind of MS and I use Avonex simply because it's 1 shot a week and about 30% of success to slow down the disease.

    My follow up is quite impressive - I saw the neuro 2-3 times/yr, saw my family doctor 2x/ year ( Not for MS ) and I have a MS nurse for any questions at any time.

    Best thing to me is to remain active despite my leg, the fatigue and my low endurance. I'm going at the gym with an adaptated program of exercise. That allows me to do gardening, swiming at home with my kids and party up to midnight with some preparations before.

    Dont let MS controls your life because in a sense she's the boss. Listen to your body and do your normal things because MS has no remedies as of today. Like I said, I'm using interferons because small chances are there to slow down the decease.

    Lastly, the worst thing to be wasnt the drug or the pain but all the emotions related to that. Remain active, this is the best way to avoid...depression.

    From the sound of your question, it appears that

    you need professional medical advice.

    Don’t trust a total stranger on Yahoo Answers to analyze your problem.

    I’ll assume you are on YA because you don’t want to call your doctor.

    But you could ask a nurse for an expert opinion.

    There is a website with registered nurses that will answer

    your question online for less than $15
