Changing from Ocrevus to Mavenclad

Good afternoon, just browsing through, due to start Mavenclad next month after neurologist recommended changing from Ocrevus! Can't remember her reasons, wanted to understand the science behind it (did A level Biology decades ago!) but struggle these days to focus. Anyway will be looking at experiences of taking Mavenclad although we are all different. So far have had blood tests done (seem to have a vitamin B12 deficiency so checking on that again) and vaccination for pneumonia. And MRI brain scan. Nothing else.

Mavenclad is chemo. It kills off your immune system and rebuild it is how they explained it to me. Something about t and b cells being rewritten. They do it twice to make sure it worked
