I had a scheduling conflict. Trying to get in next week. If not, it will have to wait till the fall.

You have to decide if you are in the risk group for COVID-19 (e.g., diabetes, over 65 etc.). My neurologist said that since I was not in the risk group, I could have the infusion (even though he recommended I wait till the fall). He said that Ocrevus destroys B cells and a small subset of T cells, so I shouldn't worry about the immune system being destroyed.

I had mine last week. It had been delayed for a month because of Covid-9. I’m doing well. IFwczs has some good suggestions. Good luck.
