Mrlknpp, it's Fancy1959. Marla I would like to officially welcome into this incredible chat room. We promise to provide you with a safe place to come and ask questions, voice concerns, or simply speak to others who truly understand what you are going through.

How long have you been on ocrevus? In October I will be on ocrevus for one year. I have had no problems with the DMT. I have seen several positive things already happened to me. I have seen a reduction in my spasticity. And lately it seems as if my balance is improving slightly as well as my walking. Now by no means is my walking good or my balance back to what it was but it is going in the right direction slightly.

I can't wait to get to know you better and please take care of yourself until we speak again. And please remember that together we are stronger!

Me too. No other treatment worked for me. I was on Copaxone, Tysabri, Gilenya. I am going for my fourth treatment next week. I changed my diet and that really helped. I have trouble walking sometimes but I keep going. Would love to get to know you better. Thanks for replying to my post. I have to run but I promise to follow up later today. Have a great day.

Welcome to the group. So far I haven't heard anyone have any complaints about ocrevus. How is it working for you? I'm currently on tecfidera. I was on avonex but didn't react well to that.

Not what you're looking for?
