Ocrevus side effects
Hi everyone.
I’m hoping you’ll be able to help. Where I live there isn’t a big MS community. I find myself a bit confused and no one to ask really😞
I got diagnosed in October 2018 with RRMS. I’m on tecfidera since. In December last year I had my MRI and my neurologist told me I’ve got 2 new lesions on my brain since my last MRI, one of them on the cerebellum. I feel awful, my head feels weird, heavy eyelids, etc. The thing is I was told to choose between Ocrevus and tysabri. I told my neurologist I need time to process the info.
I’ve been doing a lot of research.
Ocrevus has shown good results but I’m terribly scared. I work as a primary school teacher and I’ve got 2 children. Being immunosuppressed isn’t ideal then the side effects during and after the infusion plus all the literature I read about malignancies specially breast cancer. It terrifies me.
Your advice would be highly appreciated 🙏
Thank you all 💕
Enjoy the Easter break!
