Well I finally started my Gilenya yesterday and just took my second dose.
I did the 6 hrs in doc office, hr-96 went down to 68 and has stabilized at around 80 (lower for me)
The biggest side effect is prickly tingling and itchy skin with no rash. Also, I am struck with oscilating episodes of excessive fatigue and weakness (I take Provigil alreadyto combat these typical ms symptoms). The Provigil does not put a dent in the fatigue though. I also have intermittent blurred vision and occasional neck and back pains. Novartis told me that these side effects should resolve themselves within a month after initiating treatment?
Has anyone else had these side effects and did they resolve?
