So I get to start Rebif in a couple of weeks once the insurance stuff gets worked out. Any thoughts on what to expect or what I should know that the literature or Rebif nurse won't tell me? Thanks in advance...
Are your symptoms increasing? If you're stable symptom-wise, then I don't see the significance of a few new lesions on the MRI?

I just started Copaxone again a couple of months ago so I can relate somewhat...

But nevertheless, Rebif is excellent and I'm guessing you'd do good on it anyway. It's stronger than Copaxone and if that's what you need, then so be it. Thank goodness we have these options.
