Thanks Chris.

Well it looks like they were quite careful in waiting a mean of 18 months before administering Tysabri, whereas the US trial seems to only require 3 months of no prior immunosuppressants (if Tysabri would be even considered an immunosuppressant ...?) before the experimental stem cell treatment.

Anyway, so far, so good ... as far as we know!!

Cherie
