What the neuro said...
 
My neuro said that since the Rebif worked for me, the benefits outweigh the cons and so he is putting me back on it. I took my first dose Tuesday around noon, and about 3 pm was sick and achy and feeling like I had the flu. And then I remembered...I need to take it in the early evening so that I would be asleep during that part of the medication. Silly me! I took my second shot yesterday, around 6, and did very well. Didn't feel sick at all..YAY...and am glad that I didn't have the same results as Tuesday. Tomorrow I take the third shot, so will be done for the week. Next week I am switching to M,W,F so that I can have my weekends off. I do too much during the weekend to really do anything extra with meds. I went looking for some pills to take during my seminar I was at on Thursday only to discover that the container had opened, and all the pills were dumped on the bottom of my pocket in my purse! So much for taking pills. I will have to dig to the bottom of that pocket, get all the meds back into the container and figure out something better to keep them in. Like a small pill bottle with a screw on lid. That works!!!
