Question Difficult to get on Tysabri?

Did any of you currently on Tysabri have difficulty starting the process? Just trying to assess how much of a battle I may be in store for ahead of me. I'm hoping it is smooth sailing. So far is has been easy. Blue Shield rapidly approved the MRI (same day) and the home health nurse for the IVSM and the Copaxone right away. With the tysabri I have no idea what I might be up against....not that it's gonna stop me. I imagine my roots will come out - I may have been out of NY for many years...but you know what they say - you can take the girl out NY - but the ***** never leaves her. LOL - kidding - but when it comes to my health - I will have no qualms about crossing the line between between being assertive and aggressive to get the treatment I need. In the meantime - the FDA best not be thinking bout pulling Tysabri from the market. I will be crushed.

Also, how long did it take to get started from when you told the doctor you wanted to start to when you actually did start?

thanks for the info,
