I hope that it can be helpful, informative and provide some support for people considering Lemtrada over the ne...

I am in the UK and have not been offered these, I am due to start Re...

so... why not choose Lemtrada?

I'm really just curious to know why those of you who have opted for other treatments passed on Lemtrada? It's starting to look to me like the most logical option & there are certainly many people on this site who strongly advocate it. I guess what I'm asking is, is there something I'm missing ...

How Lemtrada changed my life...

I feel blessed. A strange opening sentence from an MSer but I've been very fortunate with my diagnosis and treatment. I also love this site as this was most definitely what I needed when I was first diagnosed in 2008. Unfortunately it did not exist then and my diagnosis and the following weeks were ...
