I had my first 1/2 dose of ocrevus today. It went well I believe had a little itching during so has to take extra benedryl just in case it was from my normal itchiness. The hardest part was sitting for the infusion as I’m not one that sits slot during s day. Now I’m just at home relaxing. I have a slight headache not sure if it’s because I’ve been getting on off and on for s few days so I’m keeping watch on anything new. It’s jist hard since lot of the side effects are things I experience anyways. Overall I was excited to finally start a new med hope it works.

Thank you. I hope so too. I was getting really worried being off meds for three weeks.

Congratulations on receiving your first 1/2 dose of Ocrevus successfully! Sitting through it is the hardest part! To pass the time away, bring your tablet (if you have one), or a few magazines to pass the time away! :-D
