Advice & Tips
I had no new lesions while on the Betaseron. Never was in hospital for a excerbation. But I was ready for a change tried of waking up every morning feeling crappy. What to wake up and feel rested, do things, go places, drive again without my foot falling off gas pedal. I am trying another therapy to see if this one will help me accomplish my goals!!!!!!

Advice & Tips
At the beginning it made me a little sick and I had some injection site reactions but nothing severe. It has helped to prevent new lessions from forming and I am sure it has helped to slow down the MS. I have a hard time remembering to take the shots.

Advice & Tips
Use of Bio oil on all injection sites marvelous tip from my MS Betaferon Nurse. Use it nightly on affected area injection sites makes it heal quicker. Affected areas to be left for a month before using again for injections-3 weeks wasn't long enough for me. In last 3 months I've had bad skin reaction but no need for antibiotic
