Am I being a spaz? I’m very worried about getting really sick. Anyone who has personal experience with kesimpta have any feedback or tips. I also work with kindergarteners but am on a leave of absence at the moment. Considering I’ll be on these meds for a while I need to figure out the best solutions. Sorry for all of the questions! I appreciate your help! 😊

I haven't had a MRI yet, they are really behind. No flare ups or changes to symptoms. Somedays I feel reasonably well. The treatment is okay, I had my first injection site reaction in December. It went away with an antihistamine.

I would ask 2 or 3 doctors and nurses this question. Also I would stay masked when out and about and same if you have visitors. (I do double masks when out) and keep the distancing and extra cleaning and sanitizing . . .
you can have the kids do this too . .
All those should help a lot.
Avoid a lot of people and crowds until you feel safer.
I would also take zinc 12 mg daily, vitamin D 2000-5000 IUs daily (ask your doctor how much is right for you) and elderberry herb daily these help you fight viruses including covid.
let's all stay safe out there

How is the treatment going? Flare ups? Anything new on an mri? I remember you gave me some feedback a while back when I was trying to decide which med medication to start. Ty for that!
