Ocrevus # 1 done 😊

[erash]

Just finished first dose. Just a little itchy that resolved with a little more Benadryl. So, can I run again yet?? No high expectations, right? 😜

Start out slow until you get into your groove. 😁 then run for all you're worth!😆😎

Wishing you good things with O

I am not even a week in and feel pretty good. No real big changes but I think it takes q few weeks before I notice. Good luck to you, jenny

Erash: Praying Ocrevus works wonders for you. I am also on Ocrevus. God is the great healer🙏🙏.

Hurrah! I'm so glad it went well! Please keep us in the know about how you're doing. Maybe wait on the marathon for a day or two.

I'm glad the Benadryl helps. You'll be running again very soon.

Be proud that you took the 1st dose!

Glad it went well. Its been almost a week since my first one. Have not had any problems at all except sleeping the first night. I didn't even get a bruise or a mark where they stuck me with the needle. I am still feeling good. I'm thinking we need to give this med a nickname, something like "wonder juice." It's a shame that it doesn't work like this for everyone & that it can cause PML.

Hope you get to start running, just remember "moderation."

[erash in reply to hairbrain4]

I believe the PML risk is very questionable with Ocrevus. The running comment was meant as a joke. Although that would be wonderful, I am simply hoping for no further progression.

glad all is well with your first dose and I hope they will be able to declare you stable real soon. I would be surprised if anyone gets PLM as result of O

Hah! I love your humor, did you go to your appointment wearing running shoes too? 😂🤗 I was in the chair with one eye closed trying to see if my central vision loss had been cured, which gave me the giggles.

Glad it went well for you! 🎉🕺

[erash]

Of course i was wearing running shoes, between neuropathy and balance, they are the only shoes I’m able to wear 😆

🤣🤣🤣 Ain’t that the truth!
