Ihave been taking Gilenya for over a year. Is it any better than doing the shots? I don't think it's really any better, but a least you don't have to do the shots. Prior to the Gilenya, a started out on Copaxone, which did absolutly nothing for me, so I switched to REbif, which worked great and you only had to get shots 3 times a week. My neuro got me into a Gilenya trial, and I've been on it ever since. Still waiting for a cure!
