I have been taking Avonex for 6 years, without missing a dose. I just moved to Japan, and, due to paperwork and their medical system, it is taking me longer than I had anticipated to get a prescription. So, I am out of Avonex. I haven't taken Avonex for a month now.
A week or two after I stopped taking Avonex, my feet swelled up a bit. I am now also experiencing foamy urine, which a quick Google search reveals I might have "proteinuria". Obviously I am not a doctor, nor is Google, but I won't see the doctor again until January.
So, I was just curious if anyone else has stopped taking Avonex and had similar problems. I will be getting back on Avonex in January. Will that make this all go away? I really hope so.
