Hi all,

Am a 37 year old married male with a 2 year old son and 3 weeks ago i was diagnosed with MS, symptoms started 6 months ago with back and right leg tingling, i did a laisic eye surgery in December and after that my left eye started being lazy.. after MRI i was diagnosed with MS.. started with cortisone for 5 days and Betaferone on day after day injections , which am injecting my self.

I started treatment in Jordan, then i came back to Dubai.
I just want to know if anyone here know the contacts of the distributor of Betaferon in UAE.

Thank for your help

the head of this society is dr. Nizar, he works in al Ain.. he can tell u whom to see in Dubai.. there is a very good MS doctor in The Neurospinal Hospital in al Jumeira..

Hope this is usefull, and good luck

The poster called Alexandra is in Dubai and on Betaferon.

hi MrBarlow , i did not get what u mean ? can u please explain'
thanks

It was a response to the original post - I was advising that another forum poster is in Dubai and on Betaferon so may be able to provide some advice. Sorry I should have mooted the use of the PM function button.

Hi there,

You can go any neurologist in Dubai and the hospital will arrange the betaferon for you.

I prefer 3 hospitals in UAE: neurospinal, city hospital and welcare hospital.

Just book an appointment with a neurologist and ask for betaferon prescription.
