Hi i’m Jenny, I was just diagnosed to have Very Active RRMS yesterday, I had been getting assessed for it since 2020 but now got the diagnosis. Thought i’d introduce myself to everyone on this forum

Hi Jenny,
Hope you are keeping as well as can be. The good thing about a diagnosis is that you now can be a bit clearer about how you manage your life. For any condition I think it is important to have a good support network of professionals, family and friends. Wishing you all the best and hope that you will get good support on this forum. There is a broad range of experience and characters here.

Hello Jenny. I am sorry that you have had that dx. Never nice to get, even when a person has seen the way the wind was blowing. I had the same dx a little over 20 years ago, and your experience does take me back.
It’s probably too early for you to start getting your head around treatments to help keep you well, or perhaps you have already had that discussion with your neurologist? Given your dx, it seems likely that you will be eligible for one of the more effective disease-modifying drugs, which would be good news. Drugs like Tysabri (which I have been on for many years) really can stop even aggressive RRMS in its tracks, and there are very good alternatives drugs too. Heading off damage before it happens is the name of the game here, and there are good options for helping to keep you well.

I was looking at Lamtrada, the neurologist said she really recommends i start on the level 3 treatments for it

That sounds great. I am glad that you have access to those very good treatments.
