OK...now for my report!

NUMBER TWENTY ONE DOWN!!!
In and out in record time of 2.5 hours. No problems, no concerns.
The nurse and I sat and talked about how I am doing. She reports they have 7 Tysabri patients now! There have been a few that came and went but never 7 at once having infusions!

Stopped by to see the doc. I was supposed to have an appt after infusion, but I was there early in the day for testing for something else and he had called my house while I was in the other thing, so I just invited myself up . He said my MRI was wonderful, blood work came in just lovely, gave me a copy of MRI report "to frame", told me don't come back later, and off I went to infusion.

MRI report: NO new lesions, NO enhancing lesions, Further decrease in large lesions previously reported on, some are gone COMPLETELY! Nothing new to report!
Bloodwork: All levels normal, nothing to see here. Normal WBC count means you are clearing Tysabri as you should, liver panels normal, now get out of here.

( I'm pretty sure it's working now...)
