Mavenclad

Hey guys! Anyone in the UK on Mavenclad? I have a 5 month wait to see the consultant and my MS is active at the moment. Once the consultant has agreed I can start I am just wondering what the process is as I know there are tests and Jabs etc... I don’t want to wait too long but if it’s going to take a few months of tests I will have to keep phoning up for cancellations!

Hi @hollylb10 I’m in Scotland and I’m about to get all the tests done for my second round of Mavenclad. If I remember correctly, the tests are a chest x Ray, blood tests and a urine sample which were all done by my ms nurse. Once my consultant wrote the prescription it all happened quite quickly- I think it was a couple of weeks before I actually got the tablets. It was really easy to take and apart from feeling a wee bit ropey after the first 2 days,I felt fine🙂 good luck with it! Anna x

Thank you for your reply. I thought I would have to have a shingles vaccine?! Ok so bloods and urine I expected but not a chest X-ray 😱 oh well, needs must! That’s great you have done well on it so far. I’m one of those people that if there are side effects I will get them 🤣 Do you think it has made a difference with your MS?
