New starts: Ocrevus

Hi all :) So after over a year on Tecfidera (feeling pretty good after recovering from initial relapse) it has been decided that my MRIs show slight changes (an active lesion) and that the meds aren't working. Rather than continue with an ineffective treatment and hoping for the best, my consultant has given me 4 options. Lemtrada, tysabri, (one I forget the name of beginning with a C) and Ocrevus. Based mainly on effectiveness and side effects we are going with Ocrevus. I'm just wondering if anyone can give me a heads up of their experience on the drug? I know it's only a year old so not many people will have tried it but hopefully you can east my nerves a bit! Thanks, Sophie xx

Alright @sofia_gaston? I started Ocrevus on Tuesday. I’ve only known about my ms since November too. So whether my input will be any good to you or not I don’t know but I’m all honesty I suffered none of the infusion related side effects and can’t wait to get the second half of the infusion a week on Tuesday. So I guess I can’t really talk about what good it’s gonna do but hey I know nothing of this disease but I’m just game as a pheasant to take it on. Marlon
