Hi EddieF,

Though I'm not on Tysabri, I'm pretty sure you're not supposed to miss a dose of it. I'm glad you found a new neuro but shame on the neuro who disappeared on you.

If you can contact that neuro's office, you might be told that "All our patients were notified" about his move. I've had a doctor's office do that to me--they moved and I turned up for an appointment, only to find that they were no longer there and had moved. No one had told me. When I located the new address and asked why I hadn't been told, that was the answer. In other words, I was expected to just get over it.

I suspect that doctors sometimes want to dump some patients and this is one way of doing that. But I can't prove that.

As for the heart palpitations, I get those when my potassium level is getting low. I can always tell when I'm in trouble with the potassium level because of the palpitations that come on. That just might be your problem too though there can be other causes. If you haven't had that blood test done recently, it might be a good idea to have potassium checked.
