I told my Neuro I wanted to think about it before starting on Beta. He understood.

Sometimes I think doctors don't expect us to be as knowledgeable as we are on our condition - they're used to just writing prescriptions without any questions. My Neuro told me that I was one of only three MS patients that come to their appointments armed with the latest information on MS treatments. He even admitted that he looks forward to hearing what we have researched.

I'd make a list of all the questions I had regarding this treatment and ask him at your next appointment. It's your body and your decision. Our doctors are just one link in the chain.
