I go for my 3rd tysabri infusion next Wenesday, February 6. I had a reaction during second infusion (pain in upper back, shortness of breath, tightness in chest) so I will premedicate with benadryl. I was given benadryl in my iv when experiencing the reaction and it was resolved within 10 minutes. I actually was at the end of my infusion when I told the nurse I was having a problem so I received all of the ty.

I was wondering if anyone else has experienced anything similar. I am hoping and praying that I can tolerate tysabri and it helps.

I have noticed a bit of an increase in energy since starting.
