Guest guest Posted March 26, 2006 Report Share Posted March 26, 2006 I have asked this question before but there is so many new members out there that maybe some one else is giving there self weekly Avonex injections.I have been doing this for 17 months now and it seems to help me some except for the day after I do it and I get those nasty side affects for about 6 hours and it is over with.If any one is doing this I would like to hear how it affects you.

Guest guest Posted March 27, 2006 Report Share Posted March 27, 2006 Yep, and many who have tried it for MS have had horrible side effects. Even the medical fraternity now admit it is of marginal benefit, if any and if my memory serves me correctly from all the MSers on lowdosenaltrexone group even those who it does help find it stops helping after a year or two at most (if they can stick it that long due to side effects). I can understand wanting to try different things but using a nasty drug developed for treating MS (which has a completely different etiology to PLS) which is now acknowledged to be of marginal benefit at best even for MS, is not exactly high on my " fun things to do " list!
