I didn't take Rebif, I was placed on Avonex. That lasted a couple of months. Then I have an optic neuritis flare up. And had blood work, discovering that I had developed anti-bodies to interfurons. That was my one and only interferon and it didn't last much longer than a couple of months. I'd been on Copaxone prior to Avonex. Has your neuro considered Copaxone? Have you considered Copaxone?

Along with the upcoming MRI, will you neuro also have bloodwork done, to test your blood levels, too?
