I’m switching over from Vumerity. Doctors say it will make me actually feel better. Is that true? I have SPMS.

Any information is appreciated

I haven't taken that DMT and don't know anything about it. But Dr. Boster has made a *bunch* of videos about Tysabri giving some facts and his expert opinions and experiences in prescribing the drug to his patients. You can check them out here: ( https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCkQopiiFbAo0zS...).

I take tysabri have been on it for 2 and half years now. I was never on any other dmt I was diagnosed and options were ocrevis and tysabri. A lot of people who get the infusion have been on other treatments and think tysabri is amazing and has made a huge difference to them. I do feel a big difference after an infusion and would notice an awful lot of ms symptoms resurface a week or two before I’m due my infusion so it’s definitely helping/working.

I can't help at all. I have never had ANY infusion style meds, and have had neither tysabri or vumerity...
vumerity may immunocompromise and could cause hair loss for SOME, and a possible upset stomach that may reduce over time...
anyone else have actual experience that I do NOT have?

Hopefully it works well for both of you.

I have heard some people say that it helps them feel better. Everyone is different. I hope it does that for you. You can also read reviews on drugs .com.
