So my doctor chose Tecfidera and Gilenya as my best medication options and wants me to choose one to try. I'm looking for information about the meds, anyone have any advice or tips?

Hello
I just got diagnosed in March and started Tecfidera in April. No side affects. I Love it.

I would choose Tecfidera. The other med you mentioned has worse side effects that are too serious to use. That is why I will never go on it.

Absolutely. That is what we are here for.
Do keep us posted on what medication you ultimately go with.
