RP,

I discussed it with my neuro-team. Their response is shown in this post:
http://neurotalk.psychcentral.com/thread37891-34.html POST 340

"We did discuss medications like Revimmune. Generally, this type of medication eliminates and then restores the immune system entirely. There are two downfalls to this approach: a) potential lethality is very high (10-17%, though not necessarily with Revimmune itself), and; b) the high liklihood that even after the immune system is restored, whatever causes MS will eventually just start again, thereby making this approach just a delaying process with very high risks."
