Hey everyone. Sometimes, in our new MS world we bend a lot. And sometimes, when things bend too much, they break. That was me a couple of weeks ago. I called my boss, barely keeping it together saying, I need to take FMLA (I’m in the US, Family, Medical Leave) I have started being at home. Slowly wo...

Hey everyone, I’m finally starting Ocrevus in a couple of days and I’m a bit nervous about the timing. For those of you on it, how did the first dose hit you?

I do a few exercises, quick sink wash, breakfast, rest, get ready, rest and snack, drive to work, lunch, take breaks if possible, dinner, drive home, rest, eat again, rest, maybe some TV, night routine,...
