Tecifideria & PPMS

Hi, I haven’t posted in a while - hope everyone is doing as well as they can. I was diagnosed with PPMS exactly 2 years ago. I had an appointment with Neurologist in June and asked about Ocrevus so we are being proactive rather than waiting on new activity. I had an MRI in July 2021 and just got my results back. “MRI shows changes consistent with your diagnosis of MS within your brain but no evidence of new inflammation” Good news.. but my neurologist has suggested Tecifideria and has mentioned “at least two relapses” I know my neurologist is the best person to speak with - he’s leaving soon and it’s taken 10 weeks to get my results. Is the wording of his letter suggesting relapsing/remitting? Is anyone else on Tecifideria with PPMS? I believe Ocrevus is the more expensive drug. TIA

Hi! Sorry to hear the news but all we can do is be positive. What meds are you currently on?

@cwe33

I’m currently taking 200mg of Amantadine twice daily for fatigue and Fluoxetine for depression/anxiety which was pre-diagnosis. Thanks for your reply.
