If you read the entire prescription information for all of the CRABS, there are many other side effects listed beyond the ones that many people endure.

I am not sure what I will be doing since I have not been able to tolerate any of the CRAB's or tysabri. Allergic reactions, antibodies ... Neuro just keeps saying that I am stable, and therefore, there would be risks to trying a new oral med. In the next breath, he seems to suggest I should try one when they come out. On the other hand, they are not sure I am RR since I have had not major flares since my first one.

I guess I will just wait until they are approved, and then make an informed decision. At this point, I am leaning toward trying one of them. My next MRI is scheduled for May. It will be one year. I did not have any new lesions last May, but I did have four new ones in the previous year.
