Advice & Tips
A emotional decision as this drug was ment for people with Hogkins nonlimfoma and the side effect could have bin getting Hogkins nonlimfoma and the only cure for Hogkins is Mitoxantrone so to say yes was very hard but with no alternatives and the Only path available, a shot in the dark. ? I cant answer is do you think it helped as dont know what I would have bin like with out it so ?? .

Advice & Tips
While I was taking Novantrone, I had very very little side effects, maybe slight nausea once, but the benefits for outweigh any problems!! It was definately worth it!!

Advice & Tips
I took IV Novantrone every 3 months for two years. Since that time, I have not had another exacerbation of the MS. I think if is wonderful and very thankful that I was able to take it! Now I do have a pretty normal life!! Although I had already lost my job due to cognitive difficulties caused by the MS, I wish I could have taken it at the very beginning!!
