Hi,
So I haven't been on this site in.....a really long time! I'm coming up to my third full Ocrevus infusion at the end of August (1.5 years) and I thought I'd share my experience. That, and I have a lull in my workload today and am slightly bored, haha.
Here are my thought on Ocrevus after almost 1.5 years. I am SO glad I made the switch to this med. I am so much stronger than I used to be on Tecfidera or Copaxone. For me, the change is awesome. It was all so gradual that I can't pinpoint exactly when things got good, but they have improved a lot. I have a lot of freedom back. My legs are still spastic, but they feel really strong. I swim twice a week, and now I don't feel tired the day after swimming. My balance is way better, and I don't feel shaky anymore. If it wasn't for the spasticity, I would feel 100% back to normal. I'm excited to continue on this med.
I still take Fampyra but I am curious to see if I can stop taking that altogether. We'll see!
