I haven't been checking in regularly - I can't believe I joined this forum 10 years ago! I wanted to update the forum in case people still visit. I always loved everyone in here.

I was at the nine year mark to the month for Tysabri when I was diagnosed with cancer. I had surgery and started chemotherapy. But my neurologist said that I needed to go off of the Tysabri. My sense is that I will not be able to go back on the drug because of all the chemotherapy medications which obviously suppress your immune system. I am still JC virus negative. I have no idea what I will go back on when the chemotherapy is over. It was emotionally crushing because Tysabri has been my lifeline for so long with zero relapses.

Anyhow I guess it's good news there are more new drugs out there these days. Anyhow it was a good 9 year run on Tysabri. I'm going to miss that drug.
