@A MyMSTeam Member I think the DMT'S can give you the risk of cancer, Ocrevus specifically mentions breast cancer as an example for side effects.

So sorry you all had to go through cancer in addition to MS. Big hugs to each of you! You are the queens of the Warriors! Stay strong my friends!

My BF has MS and has had multiple cancers. I am going tomorrow to see if I have melanoma of the skin. My BF swears her cancers are from all of the years she was on DMT's!!
