Symptom update

It’s been about a month since I had my second Ocrevus infusion and I’m getting feeling back into my left foot! I felt so happy that I actually put on 2” heels and went out to dinner with the hubs. I haven’t been able to wear any type of shoe that isn’t flat because of fear of tripping. I’m feeling happy and blessed :) It’s just the little things ❤️

I hope Thursday goes well for you. I am due for my forth infusion. They have all gone very well. I like to bring a special snack for myself. 😄. Linda

THalcomb in reply toLinda3579

Hi Linda! So you’ve been on Ocrevus for almost 2 years now? Have you had improvements in your symptoms and if so, what kind?

Linda3579 profile image
Linda3579 in reply toTHalcomb

I’m sorry, I was in error about my time on Ocrevus. Can I blame it on my MS brain?? 🤪 I have been on it a year. I noticed a few improvements at first, but have gotten a bit worse of late. I think it has to do with my age, 71, and how long it took me to get diagnosed. I have SPMS. I never noticed any big improvement like you have had. I think that’s a very good sign for you. I’m wishing you lots of good days ahead! Linda 💕

Hi THal. That is without a doubt the best news I’ve heard in a long time. Iam so Sykes for you, I know it’s somewhat early into the therapy. But WOW. I started the Lemtrada 2 yrs ago. My m.s. told me recently that when my counts come back up. His plan is to start me on the Ocrevus. After hearing this from you. Gives me more hope than the other Meds I’ve tried over the yrs. please. Keep us posted. And GOOD LUCK

Great news THalcomb ! My second dose isn't until early June and so far, I've not noticed anything positive. If anything, I have more fatigue.

THalcomb profile image
THalcomb in reply toRaingrrl

Thank you! I had fatigue right before my second infusion. Afterward I felt much better. Two weeks after the infusion I started to have some feeling in my big toe and now the feeling has been coming back in the whole foot. I’m having to retrain myself on how to walk “normal” again.
