Hello all,
I just got home from a visit to my MS Neuro and it turns out that I do not have RRMS but a more progressive form. We talked about treatment strategies and she is taking me off Rebif (not helping me) and is going to get me to have Mitoxantrone to try and halt my progression.
I have done some research into the drug and I know it is a chemo drug most often prescribed for cancer. Here is a good webpage for Mitoxantrone:
http://www.drugs.com/pro/mitoxantrone.html
My question to the community is "what were your major side effects from Mitox and did you find it helped your MS progression".
I am a little fearful of the long term effects to my health due to this drug and am hoping to lean on the communities shoulder as I go through this treatment.
Thank you for any advice!
Arthur
