I've been on Rebif for 2 1/2 years. I had a follow up MRI last week (it has been 3 years since my last MRI) and my dr. called and said I had no new lesions. It would appear that the drug is working!

great news to hear! I have a similar story. I've been on it for 3.5 years, and have had a couple of follow-ups with no new lesions or activity. So I'm staying with rebif, grinning and bearing what are usually painful shots for me.

thanks for sharing, and go celebrate!

That's great both of you!! I have been on Rebif for a year and a half and while my cervical lesions are still there, they are stable and my thoracic and brain stem lesions have pretty much healed completely. I'm pretty happy with that! I don't know if it's the Rebif but I'm not willing to take a chance at this point. Although I agree that life without injections would be lovely :D

Awesome!! Rebif has very strong MRI data. The High Dose High Frequency interferons (R and B) have MRI data similair to Tysabri.
