Glad to hear from you, Β Jesmcd2 , and that you are still able to tolerate Ocrevus infusions - somewhat. Mine is scheduled in a couple of weeks, and I am looking forward to it because I haven’t experienced any negative effects from any prior infusions. We are all different. Keep Smiling, my friend :-D

I feel good. Though something (maybe Ocrevus πŸ€·β€β™€οΈ my last infusion was 3 yrs ago) messed up my immune system (B and T cells) and I’m having a bone marrow biopsy on Wednesday To hopefully get to the bottom of this.

I’m doing without anesthesia, so total procedure is under 10 minutes. After having trigeminal neuralgia, a few minutes of discomfort doesn’t seem like a big deal. I’ll let u know 🀣

I know, it's just sad what you have to go through. I wish there were something else, or maybe something new will come along that you can tolerate.

😲 All of them? Prob not a good idea πŸ˜” Maybe we can start a petition against MS? Banning it forever! πŸ€”πŸ™‚πŸ€—πŸ’•πŸŒ
