**Purpose:** MS (Multiple Sclerosis) *(Started Jun 06, 2008)*
Date	Dosage	Efficacy	Side Effects	Adherence	Burden
Apr 22, 2009	30 mcg/0.5 mL Weekly	Slight	Moderate	Always	A little

Side effects:: Tiredness, Chills/fever, Flu like symptoms, Generalized muscle aches

Date: Apr 22, 2009
Advice & Tips: Taking the medication out before hand to let it reach room temperature. The prescribed amount of time says an hour before. But I found that leaving it for at least 2-3 hours before hand will subside the side effects.
