Mandatory Rest Period

Okay, so the bronchitis finally ended, the face rash is almost over and I have the approval to go back on Fingolimod. I just have to book it. My decision to go back on came after my head cleared from all the coughing. A head cold, flu or a rash is FAR better than more lesions on my myelin. That is afterall why I'm treating my MS with this drug. No drug will be perfect. I know that. I could take Avonex and have a "flu-like" side effects every week like I see some folks talking about. So, we'll see how it goes being re-dosed. I'm sure I'll have to do the 6 hour monitoring day with the cool heart nurse Holly. She's cool to hang out with at least!
