Hello Keri,

Give the Tysabri people a call and ask them if there is a waiting period for Copaxone users before they can start Tysabri. From what I recall, the interferons required a "flushing out" period, but Copaxone, which isn't an interferon, did not.

Your doctor may not be up to date with the Tysabri protocol. I don't believe it is a requirement that you try the other ABCR drugs first before getting started on Tysabri.

Remember that in our cases with MS, knowledge is power!

Dave
