Does anyone still experience flu side effects after being on Rebif for a long time? I started on Avonex and the flu sides were awful at first but they got better over time. After two years on Rebif I still get the flu sides but keep taking it because it's apparently working (MRI was ok this time)

yep, every so often I feel a little flu-like after a shot, and I've been on rebif for 3.5 years. it's never been very bad for me, though.

I'm just starting my second year on rebif. My reactions were relatively mild after the first few months. Unfortunately, six months ago I was in a car accident which caused quite a shock to my system. Since the accident my days after the shot are pretty rough! Flu-like, dizziness etc. Neuro thinks the accident increased side-effects. Lots of studies on ms/trauma.
