Ocrevus
Hey everyone, have registered with this site a couple of years ago but only downloaded the app last night never knew it was a thing till I saw it on an advert while watching a Facebook video! What a great app and support for all.
So, I received a letter the other day from the MS coordinator for Somerset about my ocrevus infusion going sub cut from my next infusion, it will still be done in hospital for the next one or two and then it will go to being administered at home with the at home care team, I see this as an amazing step forward, has anyone had the sub cut ocrevus yet? Sorry if this has been asked before or spoken about, literally just completed profile on app and haven’t read back through previous posts or searched previous posts yet! Looking forward to hearing about people’s experiences of you have had it sub cut yet.
Hello Steve
Hi Steve, yes I had it via sub cut injection beginning of April, steroids and antihistamine by tablets 30 minutes before, injection given over 10 mins manually (not by pump)and monitored for an hour after. Didn't feel the liquid going in, did get redness on stomach area that lasted about 3 days, but all good.
