Just switch to betaseron after 7 yrs o rebif

I just switch treatment after advice frm my neuro frm rebif to betaseron since rebif is not reducing the relapz tat I am experiencing nowadays.

It takes a while to get to use to the mixing of the powder in Betaseron. It's much more easier with rebif. hope I am doing the mixing correctly!!![/list]

I tried injecting twice a week earlier in Jan this year in a bid to save cost. It was a bad decision for me as the relapzs come in fast and furious after that. I experienced 6 relapz up today with shorter time in between relapzs. I had a good year last year with only 1 minor relapz. Now I'm back to ...

Nigella Sativa Oil

Hi All,

Does anyone has any comments on Nigella Sativa Oil or I think it is commonly known as Black Seed Oil ? I have people both encouraging and discouraging me to take them as supplement. You think will it do any good to MS ?

Thanks Dignan! It does help! I'm more assured now that this tingling feeling should go away after sometime. I'm gonna observed it for awhile. If it does not get any better, then I'm gonna need the steroid.

I have been on Rebif 44 mcg for 4 years now. I always take the injection at night and then take two tablets of Panadol afterwards (500mg of paracetamol per tablet). It kinda helps me with the flu like symptoms
