Hello,
Every therapy is good for different patients. I think that interferon based meds
have more side effects linked to them. But if it works for you its great. I
personnally would suggest everyday treatment, read about it and you will see how
mild side effects are.
I agree with bubbina_1999 to a degree. Docs are taught how to appreciate Rx
companies, bxs of free treats and freebies that they provide ever since the time
of med school, so they will always be on their side. Rx is multibillion-dollar
business in US and there is no reason to strike against it. By the way, medical
field in US is a business in its entirety. Private practices strive on drug
reimbursements etc. Non-profit hospitals are also concerned about their profit;
otherwise they would have excepted patients with any type of medical coverage.
Congress does not want to change our healthcare system in anyway, so anyone who
looses his/her job can claim bankruptcy bxs of lack of decent backup in
healthcare coverage, but anyone can spend a fortune on his/her cobra benefits
for 18 mnths. I think that it this age of technological progress and
developments in the research its time to figure out why do we get MS. Perhaps
scientists ask wrong questions, and look in the wrong places in their research.
Why most of the patients with MS are allergic to dairy and over 100 other
products? etc.
