Multiple Sclerosis
"I have been using Avonex since October 2008. When the pen was made available, I was ecstatic!! This meant I didn&#039;t have to rely on my husband to do the syringe injection, without seeing a needle, I could do it myself. 

I used the pen for about 2.5 year&#039;s. In that time, several mishaps occurred, the blue button wouldn&#039;t work, the needle fell out, the final problem:the needle stuck in my leg after pulling the pen from my leg!!! Needless to say, I am back to depending on my husband again. The flu-like symptoms are the same with both forms of injection.  I would go back to the pen in a heartbeat it was been improved and dependable."
