Gilenya... no side effects at all... anyone else?

[Elliejah]

I writing this because my fears about this drug were deteriorated quickly after taking it.

I felt top notch taking it in the hospital... the only reason I didn't go out partying that night was to make sure the ol' ticker was fine. I was out with my friends the next night. No problems.

I have no weakness, no vision problems, no hair loss, no fatigue, no weight gain. I'm able to upkeep my 4-6hrs of cardio/weights per week, maintain a non processed food diet and can keep up with the boys when it coms to the weekend time.

I forget that I'm on this pill sometimes because my side effects are so non existent.

I know I had this question before taking it because I am a socially active guy who's not going to give up his social life... "Can you drink alcohol on Gilenya?" ... Yes, I do it often and feel fine. I don't do it more than 1-2x per week, so if you're on it more than that, not sure.

I haven't had any erectile disfunction at all, and according to the numerous doctors I consult with in Canada, Australia and the U.S... it's not going to sterilize me.

Bottom line; I've been able to lead a normal unchanged life on this, wishing people luck who haven't had the same results.

Although my symptoms haven't improved, they haven't worsened and stopped me from doing anything else.

Will be happy to answer any questions anyone has.
