Thank you Dr Boster. I'm currently on copaxone, but I have had an adverse reaction. My neurologist has suggested swapping to cladribine. You have made me feel more reassured.

I finished year 2 in March 2020 and sadly it has not worked for me. 3 new lesions (one large one on my brain stem), my balance has been getting bad over the past year and increasing falls as well as bladder hesitancy pee myself lol. My neuro doesn't think a 3rd year will do anything so I have to consider Ocrevus or Kesimpta

I'm offically in year 5 now!! Glad to share I have had no progression or new lesions. I was diagnosed with highly active RRMS and failed the first DMT with major progression within 6 months. I felt a huge shift within8-12 weeks of year 1. And didnt suffer many side effects while taking it. Stay Strong Warriors x

Good to know! I'm on my final cycle of Mavenclad (2nd year), so learning more about how it works actually makes it better. I was on Rebif, failed then was changed to Mavenclad. I'm actually a bit better physically now than I used to. However, the limitations do still stand and I've accepted that.

Thank you Dr. Boster! I love your videos, your a true hero for everything you do! I was on Rebif for about a year and could not handle the 3 injections per week any longer, completely stopped taking Rebif for 18 months. Seeing my neuro next week and I think Mavenclad is the one for me.

On year 2 of Mavenclad. I felt the shift in my brain the first week. Haven't had brain fogs nor needed my cane. I don't know why they don't offer this to everyone once diagnosed with MS. I had to deal with horrible Copaxone and Tysabri before Mavenclad. The price is up there but they have help and it's worth it. Not sure why you said that young man can get a covid shot when we only have one week a year to get a covid vaccine. Our white count is never high enough to get the shot.

For anyone considering Mavenclad, I, personally, want to encourage you to research this drug before agreeing to this treatment. In April and May of 2023, I took Mavenclad as prescribed. It’s now July 17th, and three weeks ago, several brown, unsymmetrical lesions w/ scalloped edges popped-up on my arms and leg. I also discovered several swollen lymph nodes under the skin of my neck. I’ve always, always used sunscreen, and have never been a “sun worshipper,” nor used tanning beds. After notifying my neurologist and contacting a dermatologist about taking Mavenclad and what I am experiencing, the dermtologist is seeing me next week, despite a long waiting list for new patients. After doing my own research, I discovered approximately 10 out of 900 Mavenclad patients are at an increased risk of developing; Melanoma, Pancreatic cancer and Ovarian cancer. If my suspicions are correct (I certainly hope I’m wrong), this type of Melanoma is agressive in nature, and can spread in as little as six weeks. I pray no one, who has already completed Mavenclad, develops cancer from this drug. God Bless.

Gonna start using cladribine this week. Previously i tried 3 other medicine: rebif, tecfidera and copaxone. First medicine decreased my white blood cell count drastically. Second two negatively affected my kidney function. I had two registered MS relapses in about two years time. I wasn't taking any medicine before the second relapse cause of my kidney condition. Both relapses were pretty bad and i needed about 1 month to recover. Im male, 27 yo. Thank you for informative video. I hope this one will work fine :)

So 1 tablet a day for 4 days and repeat same thing week 5 Will Mavenclad make me sick. I am very anxious about it making me sick. What are the most common side effects please? Also can I take Mavenclad with steroids as I’m in the middle of a relapse. Thank you kindly in advance Doc!! I’d be so grateful for your advice. Ps. I’m from Melbourne Australia.

Dr boster , Appreciate your knowledge and your kind way to explain any medicine for multiple sclerosis. Especially for Mavenclad which I am on my 2nd year dose. I just wanted to ask you about the side effects of mavenclad. and what the pill does to your throat specifically. cos I can't find any reviews of this medicine online. the only thing I know is that I have to wash my hands pretty good before and after the tablet. and that the side effects are these: - upper respiratory tract infection, - headache, - low white blood cell count (lymphopenia), - nausea, - back pain, - joint pain, and insomnia. But do you know if there's anything else should I be aware of?

Also, would this med be considered for someone who is continuously, slowly progressive, however has also had very, very few relapses too? Oh, and how is it on the liver?

I’m thrilled I found your channel Dr. Bolster which was by accident. I watched 1 video and I was hooked. If I were able, I’d leave NY to make an appointment to see you. I’ve been on Tecfidera since 2014 and now have to change to generic or another medication. And quite frankly my Neurologist has made no recommendations. I’m 63 years old and also asked her what her take was on Medical Marijuana. She flat out told me it’s all Bull$&@t and it that’s what I wanted she wasn’t the Dr. for me. I didn’t tell her that I am certified in NY and use it for my spasms. I haven’t had to take a Baclofen at night in months! I will be binge watching your videos!
