What next

Now that you have worked through the website and found out how the four drugs measure up against factors that are important to you, we hope you will feel more comfortable about the decision ahead.

It may be that you are now fairly sure about which option to choose - in which case you should discuss this preference with your neurologist when you next see him or her.

On the other hand, it may be that working through this website has left questions unresolved in your mind, or issues which you would like to look into further before making the decision. If this is the case, think about who you could talk to - your neurologist or MS nurse specialist can help in answering questions, or it may be that a friend or trusted family member can help you think through the options further.

You may decide that you would like to talk at first hand to other people who have been on disease modifying drugs - in which case your neurology centre may be able to put you in touch, or you might want to visit the online bulletin boards on the MS Society website. But remember, other people's experiences of disease modifying drugs are unlikely to be the same as yours.

There are also useful links to other organisations and websites on the following pages.

We do hope that you have found this web site useful. We recognise that this is a very important decision for you and we would suggest that you spend some time considering the information you have been given and then take print-outs from the 'Weighing it all up' section to your neurologist or MS nurse specialist to discuss the best course of action for you.
