Kesimpta Day 1

Morning all! First post and my first day starting Kesimpta. Waiting for the nurse to arrive at 10.30 but have been awake since 4am- I’m guessing it’s just nerves…. Reading the different posts has made me realise I never got my covid booster as everytime I tried it was out of stock - should this be something that I flag? I don’t want to delay treatment any longer as I have suffered from a relapse just 3 days ago and just can’t deal with all the new symptoms any more. As a result of the relapse I now have INO - one eye doesn’t move like the other / is slower to catch up. It’s been a really difficult time and I don’t want a covid booster to get in my way of my first injection today. I guess there’s no question here really just wanted everyone’s advice X

Good luck with your first dose Tara, I've had numerous covid boosters whilst on Kesimpta, initially I used to try and have them in the middle of my monthly jabs, but the last one was only a couple of days after taking Kesimpta. I've not had any problems taking any of my boosters, if I were you I would start kesimpta first, get the loading doses out of the way, then you should be good to get your booster, good luck and please let us know how you get on.

Good luck. I wouldn’t worry about the Covid jab being an issue. Just make sure you to head to bed about 5-7hrs after the jab, if you do get the “fluey” symptoms, keep in mind it won’t be like that again after the first
