Hi. I searched for any answers or opinions to this question but couldn't seem to find any. So, I apologize in advance if this has been discussed already.
I was diagnosed in 2011 with MS. Since then, I've had 2 relapses but when switched to Gilenya, have had none since. At my last dr. Appt., my Dr. mentioned possibly stopping my medication because it looked like I was in remission for quite a while. I wish I would have asked, but isn't that usually what MS does? Goes into remission, only to possibly flare up again? I just don't understand taking the risk of stopping the meds unless I'm ignorant of the possible side effects of Gilenya. If anyone has any advice or experience, or just an opinion, I'd appreciate it! Thanks!
