    Greetings!

    I’ll be 57 in 2 weeks.  I’ll have my first 1/2 dose infusion of Ocrevus on the 18th.  I’m RRMS but my disease is getting worse:  3 new lesions, 3 activated old lesions, more symptoms.  I’ve been on Abagio since 2016.  I have worsening symptoms over the last 6 months so the new lesions weren’t a surprise.

    I’ve had MS at least since age 30, maybe longer.  I also have Lupus and is fairly well controlled on plaquenil.  I do have a lot of pain too.

    I hoping that Ocrevus will be a good fit for me.

    Thanks for sharing, everyone. It’s hard dealing with this roller-coaster ride of a disease!
