Kesimpta from Ocrevus?

[positiveness]

Does anyone have positive feedback taking Kesimpta after Ocrevus? I greatly appreciate your reply if you have one.

Ask” kdali” she might know more about it? She just posted yesterday about it. 👍 Ken 🐾🐾

Yes kdali recently switched and got it covered through the drug company for a year until she can get her insurance to cover.I am still on Ocrevus since it is still working for me with only mild crap gap symptoms.

There’s a few Facebook groups you can join and see how people are reacting. I feel like there’s a new convert at least weekly! I did not need the first 3 starter doses since I was already on Ocrveus and that made it even easier. The auto injector is so easy! I have heard of a few people going back to ocrevus already because they feel the crap gap is worse on this med...and I can see that! I have more pain with this lower dose version, but my head is clear, and that’s a wonderful trade. Here’s a video comparing the two: youtu.be/BVhN4_sEi1s(Not working as expected?)

I just started Kesimpta from Ocrevus yesterday. My Neuro had called me all excited about me switching to it as the month before he didn't like my progressing problems walking; he and I feel I'm transitioning into SPMS. Kesimpta is (so far) much easier than Ocrevus (took me 5 seconds to inject with their "Epipen" as compared to 4 hour Ocrevus infusion). No side effects today and hoping this might be the silver Bullet I've been hoping to find.

That sounds wonderful. I just signed the paperwork today.
