Newly diagnosed - advice please!

I was dx (RRMS) over the phone on July 24th, a year after the symptoms which led to initial referral by GP to Neurology. Consultant said he was 'anxious to start treatment'. I was given two weeks to decide between Aubagio and Tecfidera. Told if I chose not to have treatment I'd be discharged back in...
