Anyone from Florida?

I just started my first dose of ocrevus last week. I received an email from ocrevus that they will be holding a seminar type thing for people with ms wanting to be on ocrevus or currently on ocrevus. I think it will be a great way to connect with others. It’s free, you just have to register online.

I live in Fl and have been taking Ocrevus for the past year... seem to have deteriorated in terms of symptoms.

Please read my post "Ocrevus." I said I didn't feel any balance or gait improvements on Ocrevus like other people have been reporting. Read greaterexp's reply to that post, it helped me a lot.

When did you have your first full Ocrevus dose?

chairbear in reply to IFwczs

June 2018. Probably nothing more than coincidence but I've been on a steady decline since beginning ocrevus...heavy doses of burning/numbness, spasticity, etc.

What does your neuro say? What kind of MS do you have? And what were you taking before Ocrevus? I apologise for a million questions.

I had my first dose April 2018 and after two initial Doses my doctor stop the treatment because it elevated my liver enzymes. I did not feel any moment where any of my symptoms got better while on ocrevus
