Shingles vaccine (Zostavax)?
She recommended I get Zostavax 2 mos. before considering
Ocrevus
or any of the other newer meds. Yrs. ago, my neuro recommended against Zostavax because it's a live attenuated vaccine. I believe NMSS or MSSA now say it's up to you and your doc.

Still waiting
I am still waiting for my insurance to approve
Ocrevus
. I have not had any txt since November. However, I am on natural herbs, taking PT and getting stronger everyday. I will have to wait for my next MRI to determine if my regiment is working. I live in Louisiana and it was 90 degrees today!!!

Prescribing Info for Ocrevus
While doing my search I found the prescribing info for
Ocrevus
. Unlike the hype in the media, it has some facts from the studies about the incidence of cancer in the
Ocrevus
treated patients in the study.

Have any of you taken
Ocrevus
besides Allen5280 ? I talked to my Dr yesterday. She said it could actually cure my PPMS. However, everything I read other than from the manufacturer or the news. Says this drug SUCKS! It makes things worse! I know Allen has only had does.

Very confused and very sick
Ocrevus
really scares me. I just don't know what to do. I keep telling myself, "This is my tx" , "This is my body we are messing with". Any thoughts, advice? Thank you ahead of time. And Happy Mother's Day to all!

Update
After the first absolutely wonderful Friday following my first infusion of
Ocrevus
, things were a little tough. I will say that I have be3n feeling better in some aspects. I don't feel quite the extent of exhaustion I had been prior.

Ocrevus controversies?
Although it identifies some concerns, I believe that there are no perfect drugs , certainly no perfect MS drugs, and perhaps
Ocrevus
has more critics with personal vested interests because everyone was eagerly awaiting it and it was touted as such a miracle addition to the MS arsenal.

Update on Ocrevus.
The only post I have talked to that actually has been on
Ocrevus
any length of time, came from this chat room and that person was part a clinical trial that started this past January.

Convo with my neurologist about Ocrevus.
At my neuro appointment today, he brought up
Ocrevus
as I knew he would. He has ordered blood tests as the first step towards switching me from Tysabri. I'm in the high PML risk category so he has been wanting to switch me off of Tysabri for some time.

long wait!
That is the first time I can get in to see him to discuss
ocrevus
and begin whatever needs to be done before infusion. Stinks I have to wait sooooo long to even get that done!! Guess i'l be sticking with Tecfidera for longer than I had hoped.

Ocrevus
We had discussed the risks of
Ocrevus
and weighed the benifits of the treatment. As nervous as I am to jump into something, someone has to. For me personally it is worth the risks for there aren't many things in life that do not. So here goes πΉ.

Neuro checkup appointment today
I also want to talk to him about
Ocrevus
. The nystagmus in my eyes that is the bain of my existence has for sure worsened. I'm wondering if it could be the new drug I'm on for incontinence. When I looked it up...sure enough...blurred vision can be one of the side effects.

Ocrevus again
I have not read all the recent posts, and there has been a lot of discussion of this drug. I would like to ask everyone in the group about what they have been told by their neurologist since the drug has been approved. Mainly I'm wondering if anyone with SPMS has been told they might be able to get

Ocrevus...
Interesting that
Ocrevus
received FDA fast track approval USA but is still awaiting approval in UK Germany Europe Canada Australia. Usually FDA lags behind π€
