Hello everyone!
This is the first time I write here.
I was diagnosed with RRMS in December, I’m JCV positive and I will start my DMT soon.
I have had 4 relapses in 3 months and I am choosing now between Ocrevus, Tysabri and Mavenclad. I know the choice depends on the single individual but I would like to know your experience with these 3 DMTs. At the moment I am really scared and I don’t really know what to do, I don’t know what to think and it seems that this situation is bigger than myself. Sometimes I feel like I’ve made my choice, other times I feel like I wouldn’t have any DMT. Obviously I know I need to start one of them soon but It’s really hard to choose. I’m thinking especially of choosing between Tysabri and Mavenclad…
Thank you!
Hello Emily, welcome to the forum.
I’m afraid I’ve not used any of the DMDs you list, only Rebif which gave me very nasty headaches so I came off it. Hopefully, a few members here will come along with experience of the drugs you are considering.
Meanwhile, have you read the info on the MS Trust’s pages MS-Decisions? Many on here have found it really useful when in your position.
Here is a link…

Hope it helps,
