    Betaseron & Sex

    I've been on Betaseron for eight years. Every now and then (maybe twice a year), if my wife and I have sex immediately after injecting, I will develop severe chills and body shivers that will last several hours. My whole body will shiver (almost convulse) and my teeth will chatter uncontrollably.

    Anyone else have the same problem?

    Surely I'm not the only person who has experienced this phenomenon!?!?!

      I think a lot of people with MS have experienced chills after injections, I know I have. It's one of the many side effects you could get but I've never noticed it being connected to having sex.

        I have heard of others having similar s/e, but none mentioned sex as a part of the package. I think that was just a timing coincidence.

          timing issue

          I agree it is a timing issue. I can remember getting the shakes with teeth chattering 5 hrs after my injection. When I started taking Ibuprofen with my injection the chills lessened. ..Take care

            Hi everyone:

            Thanks for the replies.

            Clarification: After eight years, I have never once had chills/shivering after a Betaseron injection except immediately after sex. I don't think it can be a coincidence.
