Frustrated

Hi everyone. I have RRMS but I believe I might be progressing to different type. This disease can be so frustrating at times. I can't get an appointment with my neuro until next month and my symptoms are increasing. I don't currently take a DMT - I had a bad reaction to Copaxone and haven't wanted ...

Hello! Me again. Injection 3 today and I did it in my stomach for the first time. MASSIVE bruise and it’s really painful! Does anyone else get this or am I just being inept? Thanks! X

Diagnosis

Finally after 2.5 years I've received a formal diagnosis. This was not a shock to me as my Neurologist had said after my first MRI it couldn't be anything else. Following my latest MRI the Radiologist found a new brain lesion described by my Neurologist as "tiny" and that he wasn’t convinced. My N...

I’m new here 😊

Just writing to say hi. My name is Erin, I am 37 and was diagnosed 11.5 years ago. I started on Copaxone, then Tecfidera and now Kesimpta. Just here to give and get support and make some friends that have MS that understand what I’m going through. 😀

Kesimpta. Thumbs up 👍 👍

Injection no 3 done yesterday. So far no side effects, no injection site reactions. I'm loving it. Anyone thinking of starting this treatment, it's fab. Also very easy to do, painless. A damn sight easier than Copaxone. I hated that. I just hope it does what it's meant to and stops progression.
