Yeah!! I think at the first of the year it's not uncommon to get the next year's funding for meds set up. I remember the first time I went through it I went 2 weeks with no meds and had a relapse. The next year I found out the neuro had samples so that kept me going. This year I am prepared. They kept calling to say it was time to reorder so I would let them send them along, even if I still had a couple weeks of pills. It's January and it's started. They called to say it's time to get more and I have an entire bottle ahead, just to get me through January while the funding gets straightened out. (Not as dumb as I look!)

Yes they're great! I was thankful that young lady at infusion center did it for me for my last ocrevus treatment. If no,t I would've been in contact with Ocrevus itself!
