I'm 58 years old, and thinking about getting off my DMT, Ocrevus. Tired of being immunocompromised. If you got off yours, how long ago, have you been stable since. And why did you get off them.

Is it working for you? (No new flare ups). Then why stop? The term compromised is vague, you do still have an immune system and it will still do it's job just a bit slower than it should. Personally if it is working ,well.......,

what does your Neurologist say? How well is it protecting you? if MRI shows no new lesions that is the best clue but doctor knows if there are other ways to know.
I hope it goes great whatever you decide to do

@A MyMSTeam Member, sorry I'm on Ocrevus and love it so far. I haven't had any new lesions and I would rather be immunocompromised. It's just the choice I choose.
