My Story – Ocrevus Stops MS for this mom

This documentary ideo was made in March 2020, right before the pandemic shut down everything. Myself and four other people with MS were called on to make a video to share our stories. We are all on Ocrevus, a twice yearly infusion to low down the progression of primary progressive MS. Most people have a form of MS that is relapse remitting, which causes exacerbations about every seven years and then eventually each exacerbation gets worse over time. Most of the drugs out there treat this form. My MS progressed after the birth of my son, and my neurologist switched my medication right away when he saw that my drug was not preventing new lesions.  I am very thankful to be on Ocrevus, And although I am not saying I would be thankful for a cure, I am happy to be here and now, especially for my son.

Enjoy the video, and I’m happy to share more about myself with you. If you have any questions please don’t be shy. I am here for you!
