So Lemtrada is restricted...

Hi, I thought there might be some discussion about Lemtrada being restricted in new patients following the post on the MS Research Blog? It seems that it's off the table so I will have to have Ocrevus! Just wanting to get something started as my symptoms are worse. I have made an appointment with my GP about Gabapentin as I get painful glands in my neck quite a lot and I understand that Gabapentin can cause this. Is it best to see the GP or wait until I get to see my MS nurse? Have a good Monday evening!

@thequietlady , I was aware of the situation regarding Lemtrada. It's a strange development as Lemtrada has been around for some time, initially in its guise as Campath. Yes, I think your GP should have a view on Gabapentin and your painful glands.

The silence is surprising... https://www.ema.europa.eu/en/news/use-multiple-sclerosis-medicine-lemtrada-restricted-while-ema-review-ongoing and it is a strange timing development albeit a little concerning...
