Glad to hear you got the Copaxone! I don't have any experience with any of the other injectables, but the Copaxone does have an intimidating amount of stuff in the syringe! I liked the needle a lot more than the others I have seen!

I think the NABs are against the Tysabri, but this would be a question for your doctor.

I know that when I had the surgery last month, my neurologist wasn't concerned with the Ty causing any problems, but he stopped # 24 to allow me to heal and get off the meds I was on, but my infusion was supposed to be only a few days after I was operated on, and I was still in the hospital at the time, so I agreed with that decision fully.

I was on some heavy duty antibiotics due to the rupture of the appendix and having so many problems with those that I didn't want to add anything else to the mix!

I have never had a UTI. I thought maybe I was getting one from being catheterized while in the hospital, but the doc said "Impossible with the antibiotics that you are on." It turned out to just be irritation from the cath itself.

I know a lot of others have had problems with UTIs. Hopefully someone will chime in with their experience!
