Nose piercing after lemtrada

Hello everyone, I haven't been on here for a while. I am hoping to get my nose pierced (had it done before but had to take it out as I had my first MRI and it closed up) :( I had lemtrada 7 months ago and I'm just wondering whether I'd be safe to get it done, because of my low immune system. I rung my MS nurse and she said she was sure it was fine but I just thought I'd ask you guys for a second opinion! Hope everyone is doing well :)

@milliepipkins , you must have been in that first MRI for a long time to allow your nose piercing to close up! :wink: Anyway, I'm tending to agree with your MS Nurse. I can't see how it would have any impact on your MS.

I had only had it for 3 months and the healing time is 6 months!! I was in the scanner for about an hour and by that point there was no return!😂 That's great, thank you so much for your prompt response :) I hope you are doing well @stumbler
