Default Tecfidera - anyone on it 6 months?

Has anyone here been on Tecfidera for 6 months yet?

If so, do you feel any better, or have better MRIs than before Tec?

My neuro says he has seen patients with improved symptoms around the 6 month mark.

I tried to take it this summer, but had some new symptoms and went off of it.
Then I went through some unrelated health issues (I think) and now I am having pretty bad MS flares.

I'm to the point where I feel like I have to take something.
My options seem to be giving Tec another try or Tysabri, and Tysabri seems scarier and more complicated. I need to do some traveling, if I ever get well enough, and getting infusions will be difficult because of that.

Anyway, wondering if you really start to feel better after 6 months.

Thanks
