mibishe-Good Luck! Remember to drink plenty of fluids before the infusion so they can hit a nice juicy fat vein. Bring something to read or do during the infusion. Relax and please let us know how it goes!
amyblake_ YAY!!! Isn't it wonderful? I had the same experience, seeing MRI after MRI that showed more and more lesions and knowing that my brain was failing me slowly. I have two cousins with MS and could se where it was all going and I seemed to be on a steeper, slippery slope than they were with things going downhill fast.
To see that 6 month MRI after starting Tysabri and hear the words-no new lesions, no enhancing lesions, larger lesions are smaller and some have disappeared will always stay with me. I cried. I still cry when I get home after new MRI results are in, and I hear the same words again. I still wait, holding my breath every time, to hear the words. So far, so good! I'm happy to hear that you are having excellent results!

I have this mental picture in my mind of you all, shaking bones and bells and charms, muttering prayers and voodoo curses, dancing around in a circle of salt, with leetle glasses and tiny bottles of cheer in the middle...myyyyyy friends!
