Hello everyone
My name LaWanda- 51 years old. I've been on Avonex for 10+ years without any problems with MS flare ups besides some fatigue. Now I have started on the Avonex pen about a month ago and I have had two questionable MS attacks. My neurologist says the burning sensation I experience on my right thigh after I take the shot is something other than an actual MS attack. He diagnosed me with Meralgia Parasthetica. Now other the past 48 hours I have lost feeling in my left leg after taking the shot in my left thigh area which has left me both times unable to walk for at least 20-30 seconds then the feeling comes back and I can walk. This is very scary. Has anyone else had anything similar to what I am experiencing after switching from Avonex to Avonex Pen.
