Need some help

Hi all, very very recently diagnosed and have been offered 3 different treatments, just wondering what everyone’s experience with the treatments are really I have rrms: 1 kesimpta 2. Ocrevus 3. Tysabri

Hey there! I'm fairly newly diagnosed and was on Tecfidera for a while, but have been told I need to switch to something else. I have the same options as you and have to think it over! It's difficult to know. My consultant advised me to go for Tysabri as it's very effective, though I need testing for a virus beforehand. Were you told about that? I've heard Kesimpta is very effective as well. I've seen on here that Ocrevus is possibly causing people issues with mobility, so I'm very reluctant about that one. Have you been given much info??

Hi @Mmcm57 , I’m also recently diagnosed (June this year) and I started Tysabri infusions in August, number 3 due on Monday! Have a look at the MS Choices tool on the MS Trust website if you haven’t already, it’s really useful in comparing your options, side effects etc. My main reasons for going with Tysabri were that being seen by the MS nurses on a monthly basis gives me some comfort that I can ask questions and I’m being seen regularly. I’m also personally more comfortable with them administering the infusion than self injecting! Downside is it’s quite a commitment going to hospital once a month for the infusions. I also got my neurologists opinion to solidify my final decision. Hope that helps a bit!
