@Well I got my face my face to face diagnosis today. When I started this journey a little over a month ago, I had no idea this is where I would be. My dr and I already talked through portal messaging and she told me everything came back as we discussed. So I’ve a had week or so to let it set in. Being told to my face was a lot different. So I am officially part of the PPMS club. Yay. She said it takes about a month to get approved by insurance for the Ocrevus. So now we wait to get my first infusion. This SUCKS!!! on Shift.ms

Sorry to hear. I am currently RRMS. I have been on Ocrevus for years and it has worked well for me. I pray it does the same for you. We are here anytime you need. God bless.

PPMS club here too ✋ Getting Ocrevus approved by insurance was a definite pain in the butt and took a lot of back and forth calling. Be sure to advocate for yourself!After all, Ocrevus is the only FDA approved DMT for PPMS
