Hi all. Just be diagnosed, and I have to decide between Ocrevus and Kesimpta bit cant make up my mind. What are others experiences of these treatments and side effects. Thank you
Side effects relevant to any dmt are as individual as the disease itself, though personally, I’ve been on Ocrevus for 2 years and have had zero issues.
It appears from much research that Ocrevus fairs better on brain volume loss. Other than that, these dmt’s are almost identical aside from the differences in administering them - quite a few others seem to base their decision on this factor alone.
Thank you.
Just be told will be on ocrevus treatment for my PPMS… Any info appreciated
Prof G wrote on this matter: case study: ocrelizumab or ofatumumab.
Hi,
I was diagnosed (after years/decades of symptoms) in March just gone.
I was offered loads of choices on DMT’s- but pretty much left to my own devices to decide.
I went for Kesimpta. Just sounded like the easiest one out there
Now this is just me, but I LOVE it so far………
I just did my 2nd loading shot last Monday.
Now whether it is actually doing anything ‘beneath the surface’ who knows. I had an mri 3 weeks ago before starting, but not seeing the consultant until next May!!
But no issues so far:crossed_fingers:
