Skin necrosis and Aubagio?
Hi, my doc is recommending that I start on Aubagio, but I've had issues with skin necrosis while on Rebiff. I see that skin issues are listed as a side effect with Aubagio too. Should I be concerned? Have others had skin necrosis or other issues with Aubagio? Thanks!

Thanks again for posting! Warmest wishes, Shelby, MultipleSclerosis.net Team MemberNot so far...I was on several injection therapies where the skin necrosis started..I got lipotrophy from shots.
I cannot tolerate the shots after 17yr.
Been on Aubagio since July 2018 the only thing that has been bothersome to me is the shivering, even when not cold.
How long have you been on Aubagio?
Hope it gets better! Yes notify your dr. esp. if it gets worse.I’m wishing you the best! 😁
I know it’s not easy going thru what we go thru..and no one sees it
...always remember “You have MS.it doesn’t have you!!”it doesn’t define you. That are just YOU
..just with this silent problem
