I met a lady who is going through chemo treatment for MS not for cancer. She's
happy about it but I personally wouldn't want it. You can ask your Doctor if you
want more info. As for me, I'm on once-a-week betainterferon.

I was wondering if we would all be willing to say what drugs we are taking at this time & why that choice was made. At the moment, I'm on once-a-week beta...
