Half Dose two done !!

[Annabal82]

Hello my fellow ms fighters .

So today was Ocrevus half dose 2 . Feel fine , was feeling tired by the end but that was boredom kicking in. Am home now and feel more awake .

Mistake I made this time was not having the same amount of healthy snacks with me , had ate most of them by lunch. Was extremely jealous of the lady who had brought in cookies , cakes and crisp ( chips for those in USA ) I was trying to be so good but by 14:00 I caved as she was sharing the cookies .

It’s was quite nice actually there was 4 us 1x lady on first half dose , 1 x lady on 2nd half dose and another lady going on to lemtrada ( she brought the supply’s ) . I could she the lady on her first half dose was scared but I think talking to us helped and it was Interesting to hear what stages we were all at and what has happened to us .

Turned in to a free support group to kill the time . Lol

Take care all xAx

Annabal82 So happy that you are back at home after your 2nd Ocrevus 1/2 dose. You also met a few new friends who helped each other. That makes the time go by so much better, and especially when you were offered a cookie! Oh, happy days!

Starting to talk to the others definitely sped up the last 1 hour and a half. We were all getting the fidgets . I will be more prepared with snacks in June , I just completely forgot this time . xAx

June? Don't you mean August? My infusions are on a schedule similar to yours? February and August ~ six months apart.

Whoops sorry I meant July . 30th of June I will be subbing myself in Greece . Think that’s why the date sticks in my head as my friend flys out. Lol lol

Nice to hear positive things about the U.K. pleased it went well. How’s your boyfriend? Blessings Jimeka 🦋

Thank you for asking Jimeka . He’s fine now . Sleep for the next few days after which he does , to be honest rest is the only thing after that he needs .

Something I probably need to do more , we both worry far to much about each other. It was nice there was a few of us today, and I think one of the ladies boyfriend who came and sat with use found it useful as I think MS aid new to him , as he hasn’t realised everyone is different .

So I drive but I am on a 3 year licence which get reviewed , The other lady had her driving licence taken as her eye sight was so bad and another lady had a mobility car.

As we said every person is different and for some it’s slow other progression is faster . It’s how you choose to live your life and adapt to what new thing it throws at you. I have always chosen humour so when I had an optic I wore an eye patch to work for a bit . Told every one I was training to be a pirate . Lol lol xAx

So pleased that your boyfriend is recovering well, and that Ocrevus is an option for you. I hope that you get good results from it. Take care and keep in touch, Blessings Jimeka 🦋

So glad that you 2nd half-dose went well! I had my first half-dose yesterday and am so grateful that I didn’t have any awful side effects. Thanks to your post, I made sure that I brought water and snacks to deal with being at the infusion center for such a long period of time. Hope your first full dose goes just as well as the two half-doses!
