My first Ocrevus infusion for Multiple Sclerosis is complete!

I was one of the lucky ones. Finished the second dose of the first treatment and had zero negative effects with both. But my symptoms have improved beyond belief all ready. Life is finally improving and im smiling again

It gets easier, mate. I have been on Ocrevus for 3 to 4 years. My first infusion as painfully, slow c. 6 -7 hours, plus I face planted onto the tiled floor my way out of the hospital. Now the infusion takes 4 to 5 hours, I don't get sleepy and can drive the15 miles home. I am in my late 60s, so you should adapt a lot quicker. The Ocrevus infusions have stopped the progression of PP MS in its tracks, as shown by my last MRI scan. However, I did start getting infections last summer. My neurologist has increased the gap between infusions to 8 months and this seems to have allowed my immune system to rebound a bit, giving me some extra protection. Good luck with your treatment and I hope you benefit mightily from it.

You just healed and relieved my soul.. I'm having it soon and I was so worried and scared...

I'm going in for my first infusion next week. This makes me feel so much better!

I just had my first full infusion today. I feel fatigued and ready for rest. Thank you for telling us about your experience.

You keep all of us MSers hopeful Seb. Keep it up!!

Thanks for the upload and the information. I hope you are resting well

Thank you so very much for all of your videos. I start my first infusion of Ocrevus tomorrow at 9 am. I was on Aubagio for 3 1/2 years and then it stopped working. I went from 11 lesions on my brain to over 30+ in just 4 months. So my Neurologist suggested that Ocrevus is what was best for me at this time. My insurance denied it at first, but my neurologist called my insurance and explained the importance of me being on Ocrevus and then they approved it. So I start my first infusion tomorrow morning. Thanks a bunch for your videos...they truly helped me not be so worried about tomorrow. Many beautiful blessings sent your way always. Keep shining your brilliant light ✨️ for all the world to see!!! Blessings 🌠

I am sooo thankful for that blog. It's very hard to seek proper medicine or medical help for ms in my country so it's nice to know about treatment and desease more from real people

Good job, take care 💕😊

Gives hope

Me alegro mucho por ti! Espero algún día poder llevar este tratamiento también!

Thank you. I got diagnosed yesterday. Sending love ❤

Hope it works well for you and you have a new life full of health

Glad your second infusion went well after the slight reaction to the first infusion. It was the same for me and I understand pretty common. Mine was a little rash on my cheek. No reaction for the first full as well. Lined up for my second full in a couple of weeks. I've asked for less Sol Medrol hoping my sleep in the weeks following the infusion aren't as disrupted as in the past. You must have remembered your snacks ;-) they help the experience greatly and having some electronic gadget to keep us distracted from the pace of the slow drips ;-0

Hey Seb, I hope things go great for you. I'm seriously considering trying to go from tysabri to ocrevus. Best wishes to you friend.

I start my first infusion tomorrow morning! Thank you so much for these videos!

Many blessings I will be doing mine soon.

Es increíble verte tan bien y sobretodo que tengas los medios para pagar este medicamento e alegro por ti. Yo no tengo los medios para pagar por este medicamento y me entristece muchísimo.

Thank you so much I have to start my first treatment tomorrow plz God and I was a bit worried...
