Well my first visit with my new MS Specialts went wonderful. She reviewed my latest C-Spine and T-Spine MRI, which was done in December 2015, with me and pointed out a lesion in each location that the Radiologist didn't call. They are both located on the left side. Hence my left side weakness.
She also suggested I switch from Avonex to Lemtrada. I have read a little bit about Lemtrada but will need to really educate myself much better before making that decision. She did give me plenty of material on the medication to read. I asked how many patients she currently has on Lemtrada, without hesitation she said 5. She said they tolerate it well and one of her patients was between a rollator and wheelchair, now walks with no assistance at all.
So my family and I have a BIG decision to make.
Is anybody here currently on or ever have been on Lemtrada? I would love some input.
