I am trying to decide between Ocrevus, Mavenclad or Tysabri. I really want to hear the good, the bad and the ugly from patients. I’m tired of doctors. Have you been on one of these? If so.... What was your experience?

When is work too much?

I am 28 years old and a a first year elementary teacher. This year has wiped me out completely. My body is numb and tingly often and I come home and immediately have to sleep because I'm so fatigued. I don't know if I can keep up with my career choice. When do you push on and when do you throw in the towel?
