This Drug has just been made available in New Zealand. What are the benefits for Ocrevus? I am currently on Glenya and whilst I have had no more lesions in my brain, I am tired all the time, have has swelling in my right ankle and to be honest I don't feel as well on Glenya as I was 18 months ago.
I’m meeting with my neurologist on the 26th of December to get some questions answered about Ocrevus. I’ll let you know what I find out. I don’t know anyone who’s on it.
I don't use any form of m.s. medication and i have had it for 22 years
Im walking today without help at all
I was on Gylenia and it seemed to stop working for me. I had been on harder drugs before (Rebif) so Gylenia felt pretty good to me. Now on Rituxunab infusions (similar to Ocrevus). Did fine the first three infusions, but had a bad reaction this last time. The reaction started with a three-day headache, diarrhea (oh joy), and a really bad illness reaction for a weak after the infusion. I just felt really ill.
All the things we put into our bodies can have adverse reactions. I have always had to try things and see how they work for me.
