I am new here and I was just diagnoised recently. My doctor gave me a list of meds to research and decide on so that I could talk with him at my next visit in a couople of weeks. I am so confused reading all of this it is very overwhelming. I do not really have many symptoms yet, that is why he wants to start me on something. I have the brain lesions, fatigue and some poor vision. I am thinking that it sounds like I am going to feel bad on any of the meds. I am considering Tecfidera. It seems to be the one with less side effects. Anyone start meds without a lot of symptoms? If so, what was your experience?

Thanks

I haven't started any meds yet either, but I wanted to post in solidarity! I'm considering Tecfidera as well, because I don't want to give myself shots and I really don't want to lose my hair, which seems to be an issue with, oh.. every other frickin' medicine they offered me. I hope you decided on a medicine that works for you!!
