been away for a bit. so i’ve been back on kesimpta for 6 wks now and i gotta say, the fatigue’s been more manageable. not gone, but i can get through a workday without needing a 3hr nap. the word-finding thing’s still a problem, though.
had a meeting last week where i just couldn’t get the words out and it was pretty frustrating. my neuro says it’s not uncommon, but it’s hard to deal with when it happens in the middle of a call. i’ve been trying to track it better, see if there’s any pattern to when it happens. so far, it seems like it’s worse when i’m stressed or haven’t slept well.
which, yeah, isn’t exactly a surprise. but it’s good to have something to show my doc, you know? maybe we can adjust the dose or something. has anyone else had any luck with kesimpta and cognitive symptoms?
i feel like that’s the thing that’s hardest to talk about, but it’s also the thing that affects my daily life the most.
