Hi all,
I am new here but am comforted by all of the information on here. I was diagnosed with RRMS 2weeks ago. I am 34 and was on the brink of starting a family when my first symptoms presented about 3 months ago.
After speaking with my neurologist, I am starting on avonex. The meds just came yesterday but it may be a week or so before a nurse comes for training. I asked my neuro if I should start meds or start trying for a family. He said do meds for a year then try.
However I am 34 so I am rethinking all of this. I was wondering if here is anyone out there who has experienced this and what they decided to do. Any insight would be great.
