1st Ocrevus half dose done yesterday.

[Ladybriars]

Hi everyone,

Just a quick update on my infusion. Everything was just like everyone had told me. Once I was there my nerves settled down. I brought snacks, drinks and ipad like was suggested to me.

I had a little nausea about 1 .5 hours in and they gave me Zofran in IV. And towards the last hour I had a little swelling in the throat. They gave me pepcid and benadryl in IV. But everything was fine after that. Thanks for all the support and comments regarding the first time. I was very much appreciated all the advice. Today is just chilling out and I feeling fine.

Yes, 2nd dose on Aug 31st. Thanks for the tips! No more shots weekly.

Yeah! Glad everything went ok. In a couple more weeks you get to go through it again & then be done with it all for 6 months! That's the best part, not having to deal with MS meds everyday.
