Hi everyone,

How’s it going today? 😊

If you’re taking immunomodulators or immunosuppressants for MS, you might experience a range of side effects that can be tough to handle.

How do you manage side effects like fatigue, infections, or other challenges? Do you have any advice or helpful strategies for reducing treatment-related symptoms? What has your experience been like?
