Default Bg-12
Anyone see the segment on the up coming new pill on n.b.c. news tonight? Can't find anything about it on the Internet. They said there were very few side effects. Called vg12

I googled "multiple sclerosis pill" and came up with BG-12

Here's where I get most of my accurate news from:

http://www.reuters.com/article/2011/...79P05O20111026

Notice in the article that it says how they don't know what the long-term safety is on the drug. Hmmm...I think that I would be interested in long term stuff...don't you??

I recall a thread about BG 12 here...I'm not sure I'd ever take an immunosuppressive drug for MS. I personally feel you're just inviting an avalanche of problems...wish they'd find a cure or at least what the heck causes this stupid disease

It's interesting to read of the things they come up with and also how we all would rather take a pill form than the shots.

I, too, would want to know about the long-term effects.
