I would think that I should be OK for Tysabri in the future because it was such a slight reaction BUT the blood work will tell the story won't it? if I stay on it or not....Is this kind of a COMMON thing?

This is IT for me as far a the CRAB drugs go, I have tried them all, ty is my last hope........

Has anyone else had this problem?

Thanks

Joe
