What Causes Difficulty In Balancing Despite Taking Avonex For MS?
Have been taking zAvonex shot for 14 years with no exacerbations. Still have residual imbalance and slight weakness on left leg. Want to stop the injection. Am 63 yr old, was 49 when diagnosed with MS. Tired of flu like side effects. What are stats for those stopping this drug?

Hi,
Stopping the drug will make symptoms more worse, so I recommend to consult your doctor to replace it with another drug.
