Default Starting Rebif soon

I just got a call from a company who was referred to me from MS Lifelines. They were calling to set up delivery of the medication my neurologist prescribed, Rebif. They said that I should have it tomorrow. Then a MS Lifelines nurse will call me to set up a time to come and show me how to give myself injections. The pharmacist also called me to explain a little more about Rebif. He told me to take Aleve or Tylenol before the shots and that most people take it at bedtime so the flu-like symptoms do not bother you as much. He said that I will start on a little dose and then in two weeks another dose and after that the full dosage. I guess it is becoming a little more real now. While I am still in a state of denial, I guess when I start the shots 3 times a week it will become a little more real. As for lesions, the neurologist only found two and faint bands so I am hoping it means that they caught it early. Here's hoping so.
