I felt like you after my second and third treatment. It seems to take between the fourth and fifth treatments. And mine was so slight, I didn't notice, but those around me did. I took a portable DVD player and comedies with me to help pass the time. You're right when you sit there you can think to much. Feel better soon.

Hi Tonya, I am sorry your not feeling very well and if you feel like talking I am here. So maybe like PQ said after the 3rd or 4th treatment will be better. I am thinking of you and hope you start feeling better soon. Keep your chin up and try to be positive..LOL Mary:-)

I did the novatrone for two years, every three months. I wanted to give up after the third treatment. It helped keep my MS in check. I haven't had a major flare-up in two and a half years. It did help alittle. I bought myself a portable DVD player and watched movies during my treatment. Maybe, this would work for you. When my father was going through chemo for cancer, I bought him one and he loved it. It really helps the time go by fast. Hang in there.

Hi Tonya, Its so good to see you back online. I havent been feeling very good for a few weeks and havent been able to talk on the phone. So maybe we can talk next weekend. It is SuperBowl weekend. Are you for one of the teams at all. I know my husband and Dad are big NY Giants fan. Anyways Tonya I am so sorry to hear that the medicine you were taking isnt working out for you. What new treatment are going to start you on? My prayers are with you and I hope soon you will start feeling better. I want you to know that I am thinking of you. I hope you get this soon. Take Care and we will be talking again real soon. LOL Mary :-)
