I am not sure. When I met her, I found out she takes rebif and that medication is more than once a week. It could be but it is hard to tell. I have heard some meds make you gain weight but I am really not certain. Just know that she is a warm, friendly person who does not allow her disease to get her down.

disease? what disease? treatment?


Letting everyone down would be my greatest unhappiness.

Teri Garr has suffered from multiple schlerosis since the 80's I believe---that is the reason for the "treatment" that others have discussed.

i just read this tonight and was surprised. i've always loved her acting, and always thought she was a beautiful woman. i loved her in MR MOM and MOM & DAD SAVE THE WORLD.. and just watched YOUNG FRANKENSTEIN. she was such a cutie.

good to hear she's still staying strong even with MS. :)
Go Teri!!!

I have MS. And I did gain weight when I was having to do the steroids. Also, I found out that the Rebif can cause problems with your thyroid. That happened with me, and I am now off of the Rebif.

I've lost weight since I went off that drug.

I think I read that it was due to the steriods. My late husband had the same results when he took them for his brain tumor.
