Hey everyone, was just curious if anyone has taken MAVENCLAD and if they found that the second week (week 5) affected them more or less than the first? In terms of side effects or feeling sick, etc.

Stormy weather

Seems like a bit of a weird question but does stormy weather effect your ms? There is currently a storm hitting here (the first since I've been diagnosed with ms) and my head feels like what could only be described as stuffy/heavy? My ears have a constant feel to them as if they are about to pop

3rd infusion of lemtrada?

Hi I am 10 years in with RR MS, and had 2 very successful doses of alemtuzumab, in January 2016 and January 2017.

Mavenclad Success

Hello! I’m one of the very blessed US patients receiving Mavenclad (and for free!!). I started my first round almost a month ago and start the second (and final for the year) in a week.

Radiological/clinically isolated syndrom

Hi there I’m from Australia, moved to the UK in 2018. In 2009, following a bout of extended vertigo (originally suspected to be labrynthitis) an MRI found a number of MS like lesions. Neurological examination was normal, and a follow up MRI several months later found no changes. Neurologist recomme...

Unsolicited advisors

Just went to the dentist and saw the dental hygienist. She asked if anything had changed with my health so I mentioned being recently diagnosed with MS. She didn't say anything. AT ALL.
