Sorry I'm weighing in late on this one!

I saw this report and I had to ask WHY it would come out now. There's a lot of theories floating around out there, none proven, so I will leave that alone.

I guess my thoughts would be, maybe they put out a 2 patient report in their letter to warn other doctors to be watchful of this in the future.

My thoughts also wonder about previous history on both patients. They obviously had the moles before. What were they on for drugs before Tysabri? What other drugs or risk factors did they have. Is it possible that there were changes before and they just noted it? Not enough information and we more than likely will not get that information due to privacy laws.

I talked to my neuro yesterday during my appointment, about this, and he feels like I do, that people on Tysabri need to be watchful of any changes that are abnormal, that last more than 24 hours, etc, sort of like relapses, and call if that happens.

I have a mole map. I have had some family die from melanoma. They all ignored moles that went bad. I get mine examined at every physical and examine them myself regularly. That's how I found out that mine were shrinking.

I don't think this is anything to worry about right now, unless more information comes along.
