Hi, Welcome to our community! There are many treatments for MS, divided into acute and long-term treatment. All treatments are different types of immunosuppressants. How are you handling the new diagnosis?

I am taking Tysabri infusion as the main MS med (disease modifying) and then several meds for symptoms. The tysabri seems to be working decently to keep me stable with no new lesions since I have been on it

Tsybari and I love it. The only downtime would be the day before the next Infusion.

I'm on Kesimpta. This is my 7th med? Doc says I'm doing good on it but has brought up trying something else. All the meds I tried before Kesimpta failed. I was having attack after attack. 1, I was very allergic to and the others just didn't work for me.
