Default advice on starting avonex injections?

not happy b/c need to start meds and avonex rep can ONLY see me on wed at 10:30 am...or wait another week...what have people experienced with avonex? i hope to go forward w/appt and then go to work...from your experiences, is that realistic? avonex guy told me not to stress and that most people don't have side effects...husband will be outta town...will have my 2 kids....please let me know about your experiences with first injections...did you use tylenol? did you do it right before bed? thanks much, M

You gain strength, courage and confidence by every experience in which you really stop to look fear in the face. You are able to say to yourself, 'I have lived through this horror. I can take the next thing that comes along.' You must do the thing you think you cannot do. Eleanor Roosevelt
