Have written only one post before when I wss having a allergic reaction to Aubajo. Getting over that and my neurologist wants to put m on Tecfidera . Have heard so many good things about Ocrevous am wondering if that would be a better choice. Any thoughts?

I think it's wise to do some of your own research into treatment options, think about what you're comfortable with as far as delivery (I.M., subcutaneous injections, oral, infusions, etc., the efficacy of each, side effects) and what your neurologist recommends. It can be a little overwhelming, but it can help to look at the options side by side and compare.

Let us know what you and your doctor decide. We can't really recommend treatments, but will support your decisions.

I have to agree with greaterexp . As much as I am particular to specific meds and treatments it is you who has to live with your choices. There are many people on this site that are using Ocrevus as a treatment, please remember it is a new medication on the market so there will be a lot of talk about it here. You neuro might have his reasons to have you take Tecfidera. Remember he is there to help you. He might seem intimidating, but you need to discuss your thoughts with him. Do you research so you know what you want to do. We can only support your choices but not make them for you, your health records play a part in his choice for you. :)
