I've just received my first delivery of Kesimpta

I was supposed to have a session with a nurse to show me how to use the injections, the pharmacy chased my neuro team and I've left messages, but I haven't heard anything. I'm so eager to start treatment as I have new symptoms weekly. Do I just YouTube it?
