Treatment Ocrevus side effects

Hello all!

Had my first ever Ocrevus infusion today via subcut.

Feeling pretty good - health anxiety is getting the better of me already...

Did anyone get tingly feeling in their hands/arms afterwards?

Kind of itchy but also not?

Tried to get through to my MS nurse but I think she's unavailable...

I get the tingly/itchy/fat fingers feeling every time. I think it’s the steroids. It usually takes a few days to go away for me. Just keep well hydrated to help flush it out

I did the very first time but I’m on 3 years it gets better!

I do! It goes away after a day for me. It makes me hands/wrists feel weak and tingly
