Hey guys, So I’m coming onto week 8 of a flare up, which most notably involves optic neuritis in my left eye. I have just finished my therapeutic dosing of oral Prednisone (1250 mg for 5 days) and starting the taper tomorrow. I haven’t noticed a big difference in my eye sight at all whi…

Hey everybody, Learned that the tecfidera I was on wasn’t doing too much as I have three new lesions on my MRI I had in October. My neurologist recommended starting ocrevus. I’m just wondering how everyone found the ocrevus infusions. Also wondering what peoples experience was with th…

I was just wondering if any ladies on tecfidera or any DMT have had problems with their cycles? Since starting I’ve not had one for 7 weeks (definitely not pregnant!) was always regular before. Had a look at the leaflet but nothing suggests it does? Just looking for some info.

Hey all, I’m focusing on diet and sleep really hard trying to get out of the relapse I am in. I miss being able to walk across the street at a normal pace not looking like I’ve had a few pops… How long does a relapse generally last? Is it a good idea to rest/relax or do physical activity…

I’ve had a pretty bad week. I have no income while I wait to see if I’m approved for disability, so that makes this worse. My hand me down wheelchair seat busted and the foot rests have been gone for a while. So I’ve been trying to find a way to get a new one, and then my situatio…

Hello all. My vision was suddenly like the drunk spins back in September and wouldn’t go away. After being in the hospital for 6 days I discovered I had MS. I just recently got started on generic Copaxone injections. I seem to be getting these big lumps where I inject my medicine and theyR…

I have now had diagnosed MS for two years. At moments like these I like to look back at the journey and think about what has been good and bad. So here goes: The Good – Had two beautiful children who’s smiles light up my life – Quit a high stress job and joined a great organisati…

Hi, I just wanted to ask how often anyone on Gilenya have MRI’s. I was previously on Tysabri and I had them every four months. I changed to Gilenya in 2016 and I have been having them every four months as well. After my last visit to the clinic I received an MRI appointment for a years time. I…

I’ve had quite a hard time on Avonex with the side effects. But I’ve stuck with it for 7 years as it’s doing its job and I’m OK MS-wise. It’s been getting to me recently though so I’ve been thinking about the alternatives. I was chuffed to discover that the same…

I will say this year has been a rollercoaster. I’ve been on Tysabri since being diagnosed and every month I struggled with my symptoms. I would feel great for two weeks then it would hit. I couldn’t walk through stores without a cart or I would get so dizzy, start sweating, I literally…
