Ocrevus Update – 2nd half dose

I went on Monday and took my second half dose of Ocrevus. It went *significantly* smoother. I did have some itching and fatigue but it was a lot less severe than the first one. They only had to give me one dose of Benadryl this time. I decided to go ahead and take yesterday off because I felt really tired. Slept on and off for most of the day, but today I feel much better. I go back in 6 weeks for a follow-up visit with my neurologist. Compared to the first dose, this one was a breeze!

Good for you!! I'm going to set up my one year infusion. Don't feel any better but I'm scared of getting worse. Keep it up! God's Peace 🙏
