I am not going to immediately, if ever, agree to trying novantrone. The thought of chemo scares me too. But I did say that I would consider it. And I will if ... If only there were some guarantees with these treatments, making these decisions would be easier. Ultimately I know that it is my decision, and I don't really have anyone to help me decide. After my experiences with betaseron, copaxone, and tysabri, I am afraid to try anything new. My body hates chemicals.

Knowing my neuro, he may change his mind by my appointment in May. Back in the Fall, he was pushing imuran, and then backed off and stated by using it it could make me ineligible for new MS treatments in the pipeline.
