Newly diagnosed

I was diagnosed last week with RRMS. I started off with double vision in April and then started to get numbness and tingling in my legs, arms, back and torso. I also have the zapping sensation down my body when I bend my neck. I have active and old lesions on my brain stem, neck, upper back and lower back. I have also started with tremor like symptoms in my hands and legs. My neurologist has advised higher dmts. I spoke with my ms nurse yesterday and we have decided on ocrevus. I’m not sure what to expect going forward and the worries of what my future life is going to look like and if I’m going to be able to keep my job role as a bus driver. Any advise would be appreciated🙏

Hi and welcome, this is a lot of 💩 to take in but just keep doing what you are doing especially with work. We are all different and progress differently. I feel you being a former CDL driver. Keep your head up and hang in there 💪🧡

Hey! I suffered with all of the same symptoms as you and the start and it wasn’t a good year! After starting treatment everything started calming down thankfully so fingers crossed it the same for you. How horrible is that zapping when you bend your neck! I don’t hear many others talking about that. I was so confused the first time it happened
