Hi all, I was diagnosed with RRMS on 7th Dec and saw the MS nurse on 21st Dec. I now have to decide which DMD to have and I’m so unsure. Can anyone tell me their experiences of different treatments. Thanks Helen ---

hi helen it is your decision, i know that you wish it was the neuro’s but it is yours. why not look at the efficacy of the different ones. then look at the possible side effects. make a shortlist from that. you have a choice of injecting, infusion, tablets. the 2 infusion ones are 2nd line treatments and can be kept in reserve in case the first line treatment of your choice fails. the infusion ones are tysabri and lemrada. i chose copaxone first because although a daily injection it didnt have flu-like symptoms. after 6 years i had severe injection site reactions so now i’m on tecfidera which is so easy. find out more about the others for yourself. i’ve heard that the MS Trust do a helpful leaflet on deciding which treatment is best. good luck carole x ps look on it as choosing your weapon to fight back against ms.
