@A MyMSTeam Member. Yeah I knew that. I'm amazed I've not had any type of vral infection such as sinus infection or cold since I've been in this state.

@A MyMSTeam Member may I ask what your side effects were? I'm having blood work issues but my neuro just decreased the dosage. Been on it for 4yrs now and am down to every 3rd day with mild progression on this yrs MRI.

I've asked what the long term effects of lymphocytes and wbc count being low for so long might do and the other neurologist in his office was shocked and impressed that I would asked that question because she'd never had anyone to ask and I can't find any information on it. Plus she couldn't answer.

And btw this is an office that does a lot of research and clinical trials. They have a team. So you would think they would know...IJS.

Sorry for the rant...๐Ÿ˜•

Gileniya definitely made me gain weight but I stopped taking it due to other side effects.
