I am on Beta and it continues to help me. Just watch for side
effects and call your NEURO at first sign of any! Put on your
Game Face, get angry and prepare for Battle! Take your meds,
stretch several times a day, Strength build regularly, (ask Neuro
for a PT Consult), watch your diet, and Stay Connected to a
support network. Knowledge is also powerful so learn all you
can and know that there is always more to learn. Anytime you
need to vent or refuel your determination we're all here for you!

I am on the Betaseron...Only minor side effects in the beginning
with low grade fever. Didn't last a week. Doing great with it.
Even get called by a Beta nurse every month to check on me! It is
one I've my main weapons in my arsenal to fight the MS. No
matter which you choose ask the Neuro for a PT referral too. The
exercise just enhances what the meds do! Good luck!

I have been using the Betaseron for a long time! The only side
effects I had was for the first couple weeks I had flu like
symptoms. My Beta Nurse told me to take tylenol an hour before
the injection. The Beta Nurse will teach to give your self the shot
with the autoinjector (Much easier) and the betaseron doesn't
need to refrigerated!!!!! Good Luck if you need any more
information after you get started go ahead and add me or just
