cheryl, I ALSO HAD HEAD PAINS IN THE BEGINING, I WENT TO A MS SPECIALIST IN NY AND HE CALLED IT LATE LIFE MS. AT THAT TIME I WAS'NT GIVEN ANY MEDICATION AT THAT TIME 2YEARS WENT BY AND I SUFFERED. I STARTED TO HAVE MORE TROUBLE, WHERE I WAS PASSING OUT I SAW A LOCAL DOCTOR, WHO DID A MRI AND IT CAME BACK THAT I HAVE MS WHICH I WAS ALREADY TOLD BUT NOTHING WAS REALLY DONE ABOUT IT. NOW I AM ON MEDICINE THAT IS CALLED AVONEX INTERFERON BETA-1A I TAKE A WEEKLY INJECTION I HAVE BEEN ON THIS NOW FOR 7 MONTHS AND I AM DOING MUCH BETTER YOU WOULD NOT KNOW THAT I HAVE MS UNLESS I TOLD YOU. MOST OF MY SYMPTOMS ARE GONE. I HOPE THIS INFORMATION HELPS YOU.
