Multiple Sclerosis
"Been on Avonex for 1 year now. Had one minor relapse in this period. Still come down with flu like symptoms for 1 to 2 days every week. Difficult to cope with work and house hold responsibilities on those 2 days. Also bad for social life. My MS symptoms gradually get worse but I manage. Don&#039;t know for sure whether the interferon has a positive effect on slowing the progression of my MS but I think/hope it does."
