Not sure what to expect

I have my first ever treatment scheduled for Wednesday, my doctor and I feel that my best option is infusion. I'm not going to lie, I'm a little scared. What should I expect afterwards?

Im am on Ocrevus infusions so different medicine. It takes a few hours. Bring some snacks, a good book, your phone, and earbuds or headphones. That is one of the high efficacy treatments. You may get drowsy from the steroids and Benadryl they give before the meds. You will be fine. I hope the treatment gives the relief you need. God bless.

@Steve5 thank you, I'm going to be on Tysabri and I've already been told I'll be there for 2 1/2 hours for the first 3 or so treatments.
