Just A Quick Update:
MY TYSABRI UPDATE:
1. Walking endurance (time without a walking aid) has improved slightly, though it is stabilizing at a much lower point than was experienced from week 2 through week 8.
2. Vertigo frequency has dropped from 8 episodes per day to 2 episodes per day!
3. Fatigue levels have decrease dramatically since I have been using Tysabri. I do not feel fatigued until about 12-14 hours after I wake up in the morning!
4. Foot-drop levels have stabilized. I still have foot drop and it is still almost impossible to move my left ankle so that my foot points upward. It did get better after the first few infusions, but has leveled off and is stable.
SUMMARY: Tysabri is not intended to "improve functions", but rather stabilize them. However, only one of the four issues that I am monitoring can be called "stable", while the other three are GREAT!
CONCLUSION: So far, so good!
