Tecfidera to what next?

Just looking to see if anyone’s had the same outcome as me to see what medication they tried next. I’ve been on Tecfidera for 3 years since my diagnosis but unfortunately my recent scan has shown more lesions, therefore meeting with my neurologist in January to discuss changing medication. I’ve had no new symptoms so it was a surprise to me. I know medication is different for everyone and everyone’s journey is different so I appreciate that it’s hard to give advice when it might differ from one person to another. I just want some opinions on medications people tried after Tecfidera didn’t work any longer. I would definitely consider the infusions, does anyone have any advice or had a similar pathway to a different DMT?

I went on Ocrevus after trying Techfidera. I was scared Techfidera was not strong enough. Ocrevus is a B cell depleter and just about one of the highest efficacy meds out there. I don’t have any negative side effects and the twice a year infusion is good for me. I will be on it as long as I can while monitoring my immunoglobulin levels… Hope this helps and sorry about your additional lesions ♥️
