I remember you!

Sorry MS has raised its ugly head again for you.

Yes, there are new drugs and more coming down the pipeline, I think. I'm not a big fan of MS drugs--my experiences with Avonex and later Copaxone made me think they weren't for someone like me because I have SPMS and have had it for a long time. But that's just my take on it. Others have had better outcomes.

Oral treatments:

Gilenya (fingolimod)
