What I want to achieve by taking DMDs
How important are the following things to me:
Reducing the number of relapses I get
Slowing the development of disability


Possible side effects of DMDs
How important are the following things to me:
Flu like symptoms after injecting (which usually wear off after around 12 weeks)
Skin problems where I have been injecting myself
Post-injection reactions
Effects on your body which show up in a blood test (liver abnormalities, mild anaemia or low white blood cell count)
Potential mood changes - (This might be important if you have a history of depression but these are rare)

 
The impact of DMDs on my day to day life
How important are the following things to me:
The frequency with which I must inject myself
Being supplied with a premixed syringe, rather than having to mix up the solution before injecting
Having to keep the drug refrigerated all the time (even when I am travelling)
The need to go for regular blood tests
