I’ve had MS for 10 years. All of us sudden I have a little weakness/small limp. Can this be the beginning of foot drop?

They say they want to start me on teriflumonide has anyone ever been on or heard of this? They haven't started me on it yet , we are waiting on all ...

Cladribine/Mavenclad Year 1. I took my first week or Y1 last week. I don't feel sick or have a headache today but I am absolutely exhausted. My bones feel tired and I'm moving around in slow motion. Did anyone experience this in the week after your first round? I'm working from home but it is taking a herculean strength of mind. I've had interferons and dopamine years ago, azathiapron for 8 years and then 4 months of Tysabri (until I had an allergic reaction). All this to say, this isnt my first treatment experience but this one seems to have wiped me out. Is it just me or are there any other kindred spirits out there? I'd be really grateful for any shared experience and also experience of managing work through treatment weeks.

I was hoping to start Ocrevus, but I can’t afford it. I was diagnosed with multiple sclerosis in October started off with me going blind thank the Lord I got my vision back, but I can barely walk and numbness and tingling in my hands I feel like a completely different person, but I downloaded this app and made an account to hopefully get some insight on affordable medication that may help. I hope you all are doing well. God bless you all.

I have had MS for 10 years. I have been a little sluggish and the fatigue comes and have been mobile. I have been working part time, cook, clean all at my pace of course. Every time my Ocrevus is due I go kinda downhill and feel a lil off than usual. This time I have had more fatigue, I have a little weakness in one leg so I kinda bounce whe I walk. I have jolts that happen at night. My whole body jumps and my muscles contract feeling body aches next day. My question is can you go from being kinda normal to suddenly writhing a matter of 2-3 weeks be completely different as you knew?

I was diagnosed with MS in June 2025. Has anyone else found they catch everything that goes around? I work from home and honestly rarely leave as my MS is not controlled. But I literally am catching everything. Last month it was walking pneumonia and now bronchitis. I live in Iowa but we have had a mild winter. I am guessing my family is being the germs into our house. Has anyone else experienced this and if so how do you manage it? I eat very clean and already take a bunch of vitamins and drink a gallon of water daily. Would an air purifier help do you think?
