ok peeps! Need the cheering section to rally for me! This Friday ( February 24 2012) will be my first MS med ever, starting with avonex. My wonderful neuro ( dr Douglas Woo......med college of Wisconsin located in Milwaukee ) has started me on a 1/4 dose first , then increasing by 1/4 each week till I reach full dose in a month. God bless him for titrating me up, to hopefully limit potential side effects.
Of course I'm scared to death! Not because of injecting but because of potential side effects like the flu.....not sure I will be able to handle that once a week. But I guess I am getting ahead of myself. I need to chillax and just take it a day at a time.
If anyone else is just starting, feel free to comment. We can support each other. And for you veterans, would love comments!!!!
Thanks everyone!
