Default In Case You Have Wondered



The month of May has been pretty tough for me. I restarted my Tysabri in April, about 2 wks after that infusion I developed diahrea(sp) which I had for 5 wks. I had my 2nd infusion May 15, blood work done, White blood count was 19. Went to PCP on May 19, was immediately put in hospital where I stayed until May 30. During the time in the hospital, I had a colonoscopy to see if there was anything causing the diahrea(sp), nothing but a couple of polyps which were removed. WBC was all over the board, from 21 to 14. I was having alot of pain in lower right stomache, had a laproscopy done day after colonoscopy. I had alot of adhesions that were attached to my bowel and adominal wall, which was all removed. Final say: Infection in colon. I'm on antibiotics for another couple of weeks. Diahrea gone, but food still does not stay with me. Oh well, I have lost 12 lbs, yipeeee.

By the way, my Tysabri has been suspended until July, provided my WBC is ok.
