Hi Jen, thankyou for sharing your experience with Mavenclad. I am coming out of a relapse at the moment and have been on Tecfidera since Jan 2014. I tested positive to the JC Virus, so... options are limited. To be honest, I'm not only anxious, I'm scared... I think I thought I was invisible... (stable for 23.5 years!) and now, I feel weak and vulnerable. I'm sad and I want to cry... I appreciate you sharing your journey - thankyou. I have an mri next week and the neurologist wants to retest the JCVirus bloods. Ah dear. Once upon a time I was just another person with MS, now I "have" MS. Need to deal with that I guess. Wishing you well on your journey. Take care ❤

oh wow, I have been LOOKING for a video = to help me understand about taking Mavenclad. Thank you so so much. I will be starting Mavenclad in about one months time. I so appreciate you sharing = and will continue to touch base. Yes, I too have alot of Anxiety.
Just watching this in the time of covid and it kind of makes me laugh the health safety tips. Now everyone is doing all those things!! Thanks for this, I start mavenclad next week and I’m a bit anxious.
I’m around again a couple months past my second year course. Wanted to see again how you were after your second year cause my lymphocytes have dropped SO low this round, (0.4) I’m just so tired all the time. It’s been tough. I’m hopeful it’ll be up-swinging soon. Thanks for the information
Jen, your movie is very clear and helpful for my research. I completed Lemtrada treatment last October that did not really help me. I don’t have any active lesions, but my walking got worse. Now my neurologist recommends one of three medicine Ocrevus, Mavenclad, Kasimtra. I have to make my choice. So far I haven’t come to my final decision yet, but looks like I think that the best one in my situation is Mavenclad. Thank you for sharing your experience so detailed.
@@gueritasanchez1987 I I am currently 20 I got diagnosed at 18. My old neurologist started me on the tecfidera pill for ms and it had a bad reaction to it. Come to find out my JC virus was positive. So I started on ocrevus because most people on it have had success. Unfortunately while on ocrevus I got a new lesion. I’m in the process of switching over to mavenclad but at a stop because of COVID my neurologist doesn’t want to start me on this med if there may be a COVID vaccine in the coming months. I just really hope this medication works.
Thank you for sharing your journey with us ❤ I'm starting Mavenclad next week... I'm scared.. but this last relapse has been horrible, I know I must try another medication to combat this terrible disease 🧠⚡
Starting Monday. Nervous, but usually nervous about all new drugs but lost feeling in upper back and legs. Hope it works. Scary. Thank you again for helping. Steve
I was diagnosed in 2017. I'm now 32. I have been taking the rebif shot for 3years, I'm so overwhelmed these shots are just draining I've been great I'm just Soo tired of shots. My doctor told me about this medication and watching your video just relived my mind I really think I'm going to try it.
@@WomenThrivingwithMS sorry im late lol. I decided to do Mavenclad after watching your videos. You have helped me take on a new mission in my life. I feel great way better than i did with the rebif shots.
@@daniellewashington7965 Glad to hear you are doing fine. My daughter has completed the 2 year dose for a year now and she feels great. Last MRI showing no new lesions. We are in Australia and she is Lucky to have a very caring Neurologist.
Thank you so much for info. Start solumedrol on the 1st then Mavenclad there after. You put my mind at ease. Staying offline until I start. Don't need the negative advice or bad experiences. Love your positivity. MS 💪 Steve

Hi Jen. I am thinking about taking Mavenclad. I noticed your video was posted in May 2020. How is the Mavenclad working for you today?

I've been on Ocrevus for 3 years and I'm interested in possibly switching to Mavenclad or Kesimpta.
I been on mavenclad 10 mg since april have moods swings nausea lots of hair loss fatigue anxiety nervousness confusion depression
Lots of hair loss? 😢 After all those months? Do you have bald spots?
No bald spots thank God 🙏
I have active SPMS though so Mavenclad might not be an option for me
How are you today Jen?
Good how about you Barbara.
Omg please help me. I’m so torn about this medication
How do you feel today?
@@erikagarza7405 Did you take the medication?
Can people with SPMS take this?
Yes I'm on it 😊
Or call MS lifelines!! They are amazing
I have sm maveclad at all was not effective, great disappointment
