All of my bladder symptoms have pretty much disappeared since starting Tysabri as well. My main issue now is fatigue but I'm learning to manage that reasonably well.
Hi Wiz,

The reason I asked was because after having the disease for some 35 years, Marg had little if any brain lesion activity. Yet her condition really slipped in the last 3 years of her life. An autopsy revealed a huge amount of spinal cord lesion activity yet they never scanned her spine...ever!

BTW, I am doing very well these days...have met a wonderful new lady friend and enjoying life again. Take care.

Harry
