A lot of food for thought here. I have been on Avonex since 01. I have only
had a few major flares, but feel really crummy most of the time. I take the
injection Sunday and have fever and chills, aches and spasms thru Thurs.
Friday, Sat and Sun are usually more bearable. Doc says it will get better.
(in my lifetime?) Meanwhile every infection or allergic reaction seems to be
a major setback.

And as I mentioned before, my doc doesn't deal with the day to day stuff.
Threatens (my choice of words) steroids when I complain. That tends to shut me up as I had pretty miserable experience with those and still am suffering the aftereffects with my teeth and bones.

when you feel bad most of the time you forget what good is?Or can't I tell worse? I am thinking that I am settling for too little, but am afraid of change lest things do get worse still. I am barely keeping my head above water now.

I am amazed that so many of you are also disillusioned with the current
choices, thought I was just being cranky. Enuf rant. I need to make calls
on Monday. If I can manage the phone then.
