Just a quick question about Avonex, how soon should you feel some better? The reason i was asking is i took my first shot this past Friday, and after the bad side effects of flu like symptoms, my body does not hurt as bad, very major sinus infection, but body dont feel near as bad, am i just having a pretty good week, or does the Avonex help that quick?

Thanks

I have heard it takes several months for any of the disease modifying meds to work. That being said, everyone's bodies are different, and it is possible for yours to be responding favorably to Avonex. I am glad to hear you have seen and felt a positive difference!

Either way, I am going to enjoy this as long as I possibly can...... didn't think it should help that quick, so i will chalk it up to some good days and if it continues, that will be good also..... Thanks for your reply

Hi
My name is Don. I have MS. I see that you use or think of using Avonex. I’ve had nothing but problems with it short and long term. I’m gone to starting a class action suit. Would you be interested? Don [email protected]
