Haven't heard anything yet, but I'm also not at all how to use this type of format...
Also, my neurologist immediately put me on Kesimpta because we were able to get it for free. 3 months and no results yet. Is that typical. Wait longer? Change medication? Opinions on Kesimpta?
Colleen,
I have so many questions, and only what I can read. I truly need some help. Either with my questions or on how to utilize Connect.

Thanks again,

Sean

Hello Sean @seanmay23, I can help with some information on how to utilize Connect. Connect has a Get Started on Mayo Clinic Connect guide that has tips on how to use this site. There is a link to the guide in the left footer column on each Connect page that takes you here -- https://connect.mayoclinic.org/get-started-on-connect/

I did a search on Connect and could not find any members who have discussed Kesimpta but I was able to find some recent information that may be helpful - Kesimpta: Cost, uses, dosage, side effects, and more: https://www.medicalnewstoday.com/articles/drugs-kesimpta

I think you are asking a good question about being on the medication for 3 months with no results. It helps me to plan my conversations with the doctor before my appointment. Here is a website that has helped me with some tools for planning my doctor visit conversation - https://patientrevolution.org/visit-tools

Have you had a chance to discuss it with your doctor or neurologist?
