Natalie,

I don't think anyone is saying "I told you so". I think some people get really irritated with Biogen, since they haven't always been popular as far as putting patient safety before profits. There are quite a few companies that are like this of course, but Biogen has taken a lot of heat for it, especially as far at the Tysabri trials and such. My neuro feels the same, and when he tells me about another person with PML, he isn't saying "I told you so" but just wants me to keep it in mind and make sure I report any changes to him so I can get checked out just in case.

I know we seem to go over it a lot in posts though and it gets wearisome because many people are posting about the same topic each time, usually in several posts on each forum. I think the reason for that is because we care about each other and we want to make sure it's well known so the people who don't really pay attention to the MS news, OR those who aren't checked regularly by their neuros (and on Tysabri) will take heed and remember that they need to be careful.

Try not to worry... ... we know we're taking the best medicine for us.
