I’m considering stopping my injections of Rebif. I know I probably “shouldn’t” but fuck, if i have to do them myself, I’d just rather find an alternative. I’m thinking that a monthly treatment, Tysabri or Low Dose Novatrone.
So, I’m trying to read up on both of those as a primary treatment. I know they are [...]
