I have never been on Rebif, but here's my experience with Copaxone.

I had extreme fatigue within 3 weeks of being on it. I kept telling my doc it had to be the C. Talked to SS nurse, nope, not a side effect. I did my own research and found that it was. Sure only about 1-2% of the people in the clinical trial and post marketing suffered from it, but with my track record with meds that would be ME.

I stopped the C. Fatigue relented within 4 -5 days. Duh! I may not be a rocket scientist, but cause and effect sure did relate on that one! No more C for me!

If you want to do your own research, it's your body, your choice.
