1st Ocrevus treatment done!

[BCMTN]

I had my first Ocrevus infusion yesterday. 3 1/2 hours for the infusion and fortunately no reactions other than being a little tired and an expected blood sugar spike from the steroids (I have Type 1 diabetes as well). 2nd half in 2 weeks. It sounds like it can take a couple months to kick in, is that what others have seen as well? This is my first DMT and I am very hopeful/anxious to see good results.

I am so pleased that it went well for you and I hope that you will see some improvement in your condition. Btw I love your butterfly, is it a red admiral? Blessings Jimeka 🦋

Thank you! I actually didn't pick that picture so I am not sure

Some people have seen improvement in symptoms with Ocrevus but the majority just have a slowing of progression or longer time before relapse. Praying you are one of the luckier ones who get improvement. I still feel lucky to have it slowed down since my first two DMTs didn't.

Best of luck!

Congratulations welcome to the O family

For me I did notice some changes after the 1st half . I had severe muscle spasms in my right leg and the muscle started to relax. I had some kind of improvement after each infusion.
