Questions

I have had MS for over 28 years and I have been on Betaseron, Copaxone, Avonex, Steroid IV Infusions and I am now on Gilenya. I have a Baclofen pump and a port. If anyone has any questions please feel free to reach out to me. I am all ears and open to helping others cope with their diagnosis of MS.

Hi fellow clumsy folks! I am 30 years old and was diagnosed in October of 2020. I live in South Africa and have been on 3 different DMT's. 1st was Betaferon, second Fingolimod, currently on my 3rd(Kesimpta - Ofatumumab - in S.A we call it Bonspri), but there are signs of another flair, more activity and new lesions on my brain - waiting to see my Neurologist on the 4th of February. Can someone offer some insight to what my options are from here? If they have had a similar journey perhaps? Also, any advice regarding questions to ask my doctor would be much appreciated!
