Smile Update on my Tysabri/Steroids

Sorry to have not posted in awhile. I had posted about the downhill slide that I thought might be connected to Tysabri - but it wasn't. It was a major excerabation. My neuro admitted me into the hospital, ran three MRIs and saw a lot of progression and enhanced lesions. He put me on IV solumedrol for 5 days.

After much investigation, he did tell me that he didn't want to change the Tysabri schedule. I was released from the hospital on September 19 and had my second Tysabri infusion 9/26.

I am getting my strength back following the steroids and I had no issues with the Tysabri infusion. I did not pre-medicate this time as the Tysabri nurse chastised me last time (even though my neuro wanted me to).

I am looking forward to great results from Tysabri. Thanks for all who gave me feedback!
