I hope everyone is having good day.

I am so relieved! My ocrevus infusion was approved AND I got into the co-pay assistance program. It will give me $20,000 a year for copay assistance and $1000-$1500 a year for infusion costs.

My first infusion is scheduled November 1st.

I feel like I can breathe for the first time in 2 months.

Weirdly excited and feeling optimistic.

Congratulations!!! It was the best dmt I was put on, but I've only had copaxone (5 years), tysabri (1 dose because they found I have a high JCV titre), ocrevus (currently had 6 doses), and now I'm going on kesimpta (a dmt that works like ocrevus, but I inject it myself) shortly 😁👏👏👏👏

Congrats! I am also on Ocrevus for 3 years now. It really seems to be slowing my progression. And thank God for the assistance program! Let us know how it goes on Nov 1.
