Hi Sparkledust!

Sorry to hear you're having this issue with the Rebif. I had it too, and it took a while to learn to work around it. I took a lot more breaks when I did stuff. When I was on Copax, it wasn't as bad.

I had to switch my Rebif shots to the morning because - even with premedication - sometimes the flu like symptoms kept me from sleeping well at night. That helped a little. It might be something to try, but I'm not sure what else is in your schedule and whether or not that would work out for you.

Hang in there!

Oh god yes!...... After I started I got so tired....even more tired than before the shot. It also made me weak as hell... Had to have some help for a few days was just so sick and tired.... I know how it feels and hang in there.....

I'm quite tired now, but not anywhere near where I was... Getting help with my stress has helped a lot too. A ton actually.
