Good evening all, hope we are well? Apologies for another question but, for the past week or so I get, usually in the evening, mainly upper body aches that worsen so bad it takes my breath away and makes my hands weak. Also arm/ shoulder aches and weakness. It’s not pain, but really bad aches. Another symptom? Or the betaferon? Have had pains with betaferon but not like this. Ideas/opinions greatly appreciated please. Thank you, Sue x
hi Sue,
I think that you may have such aches both because of MS and Betaferon.
Interferons can cause terrible flu-like side effects in some people and ache/weakness are flu symptoms. But, even without dmds my arms ache from time to time too. Similarly with weakness, actually today my right arm and hand were definitely weaker than my left side, which was really annoying (I’m right-handed).
hope this helps
