Re: Have you switched to Tecfidera? Are you glad you did?
JimP..... I recommend it. I am. I am 1 month and 1 week into it now and my body is kinda use to it now plus I now know MY best way to stop the bloating and gas. For the first few weeks it took some getting use to.But now no side effects. Better than other meds since 2007. For me at least.
