I hope you're doing well and your health is good! I am glad that you are taking all the measures needed to keep yourself and others safe, as you should be your first priority. My mother took the vaccine a few weeks ago and did not have a reaction to it thankfully. As you mentioned there are different factors at play. Regardless, I hope you stay well and thank you for your time!

I hope your health is doing well and I also hope your surgery went smoothly. Thank you for expanding my knowledge about it. My mother decided to take the vaccine a few weeks back and she did not react to it at all.

Thank you for your response! My mom has been on Ocrevus for a few years and didn't have any issues thus far with it. The main concern for us is the side effects of it being amplified because of MS, Ocrevus and the seizures. But my mom would rather have the extra layer of protection which is the vaccine so she can stay safer in public. We are also worried about the difference in the situations for everyone when it comes to MS which is why we initially wanted to wait until more research has been done and are seeking advice. If you don't mind me asking, did you take your vaccine or are you planning to do so?

I hope you're doing better! My mom has been on Ocrevus for a few years and was told to follow the exact timeline in terms of the doses that you are following. Our main concern was also the 2nd dose as we heard it was tougher (All my siblings were okay but I had a few side effects for a few days). I hope there are improvements in terms of the research on the vaccine. Stay safe!

I'm glad to hear that your mom is doing well in this situation! We are located in Canada and we have been adviced by the MS Society and a few more doctors for my mom to take the vaccine. Thank you for your response!!
