Share yourTecfidera and Lemtrada experiences with me

The very best of luck to you with regards to the Lemtrada then, and your GP having success with the MRI prompt! :slight_smile:

I got a rash on day 4 and 5 but that’s normal. Being in hospital for length of time was the main hardship.

I’m getting the treatment as an outpatient, which is either gonna be a good or bad thing! But that depends on how the infusions make me feel, doesn’t it, so only time will tell.

I think Tecfidera is all about what works for you rather than hard & fast rules. Many of us got a bit too concerned about what & when we eat in the early days but I would say that unless you’re one of the really unlucky people, if you feel a bit nauseous, try changing what you eat or when. Ultimately the side effects should wear off within weeks.

Yep, I’m fully intending to just take on board various people’s experiences and go into this forewarned. I do think I should only be on Tecfidera for a couple of months, my MS nurse wanted me on these because there’s no flush out period needed before starting something else, so it’s ideal for me to take in between the Tysabri and the Lemtrada.

I’ll probably just have got my routine settled and it’ll be time for the Lemtrada. xD
