      Susan this is wonderful. So glad you and Peg (I think) are going to get this. It will be so great to follow the updates as the two of you go through this process. Congratulations, this just may be the thing that all of us want.

        ssusan, that is really good news!

        The second week in July isn't far off either.

        Hope this is a ticket to a better life with less MS in it from now on.

                Congrats Susan! That is around the time I am to start as well. I don't know what my out of pocket expense will be. My neuro said all the details were still being ironed out. But he did reassure me about its safety and how well it was tolerated in the studies he was involved with so we feel good about going forward. We are just waiting for my next appointment at which time he expects I will receive my first infusion.

                  Dar, how good to hear from you! You're greatly missed here.

                  People do have other things to do and can't be posting on message boards when life is keeping them busy.

                  Congratulations on being about to start Ocrevus! At least three people here are about to have that new experience.

                  Hope you'll let people know how it goes. The rest of us are eager for details.

                    Hi Agate, I just talked to my neuro's office yesterday and they are experiencing delays getting the hospital approved for the infusions. My next appointment is July 21 and they are hoping that everything will be ready to go by that time. I will then fill out the necessary forms and get my questions answered. We are excited and hopeful and I will post more as I learn more.

                            Peg has said it was still in the works, so I was going to wait until she had final approval before popping a cork for her!

                            I'll also wait for other unknown peeps to post about starting Ocrevus before adding my well wishes to them as well!
