Two weeks off of rebif (after nine months) and I was a normal human being again. That was some horrible stuff IMO. Much worse than any of the symptoms I get from my MS. In all honesty I would rather be blind and in a wheel chair than feel as lousy as that stuff made me feel. Two months into copaxone (after 2 bouts with ON - bad as it is the bif seems to work) and I'm feeling pretty good. Some joint and muscle aches but my thinking is normal. I swear the rebif made me stupid...er.
