I was wondering, how long into this treatment are people experiencing that they are no longer having relapses of MS?

I understand it would be pretty hard with the reactions some are getting to flagyl.

I have been pretty lucky as my major cause/trigger of relapses are a cold/flu, of which I havnt had since march.

I am wondering how long (how many flagyl pulses etc) you have been on abx treatment before a trigger that definitely would of triggered a relapse before, did not do so now?

I didn't have relapses, having progressive disease, so I just went on the fact that I was suddenly getting better rather than worse. Then a subsequent MRI showed this to be the case.

It is possible to have a relapse in the early stages of treatment, especially if you get 'flu, say, but that is probably more likely at this time of year to us in northern latitudes. 8)
