I'm so very sorry to hear about your reactions sassy.

I had something similar with Copaxone. I then got site reactions so bad that not only did I have a painful red tummy, but I developed blisters as big as golf balls (full of luid) hanging from every available bit of skin on my abdomen.

I then proceeded to fit. Needless to say, I don't take Copaxone any more, and as I reacted to Interferon as well, I don't take any of the DMDs.

I recently had most of my nose removed, and then rebuilt, because of an infiltrating basal cell carcinoma . I know that's not the same as a melanoma, but I have a feeling that with my history of the skin cancer as well as drug reactions, most neuros would be reluctant to order me Tysabri.

I do hope I didn't worry you with my own reactions. I think I must be weird when it comes to medications, as few people seem have to sort of drug reactions that I get.

I wish you the best of luck tomorrow.
