It's just over five weeks after I finished round two of Lemtrada, and I'm feeling a lot better than I was. I've returned to work - well, at least not 'to' work per se as I'm working from home. That's something I was planning to do anyway as part of a phased return, building up… Continue reading Lemtrada: round two, five weeks later

Lemtrada: round two, day three
I'm home now, in my bed, where I intend to stay for the next couple of days. I slept well last night but woke at 6am with my mind racing - the steroids are obviously still affecting me.

This time I'll only have three days of infusions, and according to others who have done it it should be easier. But it still won't feel great. I can't really remember last… Continue reading Waiting again
Lemtrada: my top tips
I can hardly believe it but it's almost a year since I had the first round of Lemtrada treatment for my relapsing-remitting MS, which means it's nearly time for round two. The time has flown by, but strangely it feels as though my treatment was a lifetime ago, almost as if it happened to someone… Continue reading Lemtrada: my top tips
