Cycle 2 of year 1 mavenclad

I got my second box of mavenclad yesterday and planned on take it today but woke up with a sore throat and it's red as the day has gone on it is getting worse and my glands are feeling swollen. I called MS life lines and they told me not to take any medication till I talk to my neurologist. Called her at 8am now I am waiting for her to call back. I am in a good window of taking it they said that I needed to take my first dose of this cycle between the 11th and 15th. I may have to delay taking it till I get past this sore throat. I am also not looking forward to any more antibiotics. I will let you all know what my neurologist has to say

No I didn't. Thank you. I have only the mavenclad to really blame for this right now

Maybe having it again the day before you are meant to start mavenclad again is a sign not to do it. I don’t blame you for not wanting another dose of antibiotics. Let us know how you get on. Hope the throat gets better quickly, 🤗

I am tired of meds at this point and if my doctor tells me I should not continue I will not and I will not try any other medicine this will be it for me.

Thank you. Big hugs back at you. I do hope that my experience has been helpful to others and not discourageing to anyone. I will continue to push on and do what my neurologist says I should do but if she says not to continue with this and try something else that's not going to happen. One good thing about not feeling good is I get a lot of crocheting done

I have had my allergies under control for a long time now so I don't think that could be the problem. I do not have mold in my house. I am appreciate you bringing up these possibilities. I won't totally rule out anything. Thank you
