New to the MS Club and Mavenclad

Hi everyone,

I received my diagnosis today of relapsing-remitting MS. Apart from crying in the nurse’s arms outside the consultant’s room, I think I dealt with it quite well…

Doctor would like to put me on Mavenclad, and I should hopefully be starting that in a few weeks tops; does anyone have any experience with this drug?

I think although I was 98% certain I had MS before I was told today, it will take some time to fully process.

Hope you’re all doing okay.

Hello L,

If you are on FB there is a closed group for UK Cladribine users (Mavenclad). The people in there are either considering, offered, taking or have taken this treatment. They are a kind friendly group with quite a lot of experience.

I took Cladribine (the injection form of Mavenclad) in 2018/2019 and everything went well with it.

I hope this helps.

Thank you @MS2017, that is really helpful, I will take a look at the FB group :slightly_smiling_face:

I expect you have already been told most of this stuff already, but it’s from the professor of neurology at Barts and might be of interest.
