Starting my Lemtrada on monday

Hi, new to here…New to MS!

I was diagnosed with RRMS back in November, after what was the start of my second relapse. I have opted for Lemtrada as I feel it’s the best option for me…I just wondered if anyone on here could share how it worked for them? 2 nasty relapses in 2016 and I’m definitely ready to try this after weighing up the risks so I’d love to hear of people’s experiences if anyone would care to share please , i am crossing my fingers for this drug to hopefully get me some kind of normality back, it’s been a rough year x

hi liveinhope

there is a woman on this forum called kate.

she has been on lemtrada since her diagnosis.

very positive and upbeat about it all.

i only hear good things about it.

good luck

I’m so jealous! (I don’t qualify unfortunately, not for want of trying though)

Anyway, Katy79 has had Lem fairly recently and I am sure will be along soon.

Have you found the facebook group? It is a closed group but if you request and say you are about to start, I have no doubt you will be accepted. I hope this link works: Redirecting... If not, just search for Lemtrada and choose the one with UK in the title.

Best of luck!

Thank u guys, if I am up to it il keep u posted next week. I’m lucky it would seem, to be eligible, and now feel guilty for those who aren’t, I obviously don’t have much understanding of how it’s decided. I suppose when you’re lucky enough in life to never have had to face this…its a lot to take on. Il be having a good nosey thru this forum, I think it’s a great place for those of us unlucky enough to need it.

Thank you for your responses x
