Has anyone started the new DMD aubagio? The MS nurse wasn’t keen to give it as they don’t have any other patients on it and it listed quite a few side effects. I’m on avonex at the mo which is fine but I’m struggling with needle phobia. Should I risk going on to aubagio instead? Thanks
I am from the US and have been taking Aubagio for over 14 months. I have had some hair loss but not bad and no other side effects. I continue with regular blood tests which have all been normal. I had a follow up MRI after 12 months with no new lesions. I have also lost 20 pounds but do not know if it is the medicine.
That’s good to hear. I got some beta blockers from my GP to reduce the panic attacks so will try again with the injections and see how it goes. At least there’s a non-injection alternative now
