Remission and Relapses

I was diagnosed at 21, been 10 years now, I’ve been in remission for about 7 years now, and I’ve only ever had relapse while not on treatmen, so I am glad to say my treatment (Ocrevus) is working! What is the longest you guys have been in remission? I do occasionally have fears of relapses but ...

Reoccurring tonsillitis. I’m on week 6 of tonsillitis and this isn’t the first time since being on Kesimpta. My nurses and Gp think it could be due to the Kesimpta and I’ve been offered to switch to ocrevus. Has anyone experienced anything similar or have any advice? Thank you all

Blood Test Advice Please

I am doing pre-screening blood tests next month to get Ocrevus. It is notoriously difficult to get any blood out of me from my veins. I super hydrate before hand and they use the smallest needle and try both arms and hands but still nothing. Anyone got any advice on how to make it easier?

Switching from Ocrevus to Kesimpta

Well I think that this has been the shortest time frame I have ever been on ANY! type of medication. I was diagnosed in March of this year with heart palpitations due to the medication. I gave it fair shot and I just can not deal with the anxiety attacks feeling, the off beat of my heart once in aw...
