Vaccines before infusion

Hello! I am due for my next ocrevus infusion in October. My neurologist recommended I get yearly Covid and flu vaccines. Do you recommend this? I did it last year but I just hate the thought of getting vaccines all the time..

RSV Vaccine

Apparently for pregnant women and older adults only. I'm not an expert, though I wonder why immunosuppressed people are not included like they are for Covid and Flu. Does anyone know? https://www.nhs.uk/vaccinations/rsv-vaccine/

Ocrevus Injection

Went for my infusion last month and there’s already talk around the hospital about ocrevus being given as an injection instead of an infusion. Not sure what I think yet 🤷🏼‍♀️has anyone spoken to their neurologist about this yet?

Covid and relapse risk increase

Hello all, I’m on my second bout of Covid but the first one whilst diagnosed with RRMS. I got Paxlovid prescribed on Day 1 and have been in bed for 3 days as I find the best thing for me to do is as little as possible when I don’t feel well. The Covid nurse (North Lancashire/South Cumbria) told me ...

Gym/working out

One benefit of covid, other than people having to stay away from me (joke, I am actually really sociable!) was that I massively got into fitness, although you wouldn’t tell now! This was pre diagnosis, but I lost 2 stone (again, put most of it back on!) and I actually really enjoyed working out. I’m...
