Do you have a case manager with Active Source-he usually can help me more than just talking to the rep that answers the phone. Since I spend winters in AZ it was important to get all my ducks in a row for the switch-he made it easy and now anyone I talk to can accomplish it.
Good luck with CA

I have a Senior Tysabri Leader at Biogen who is trying to find a place for me to have the blood draw. My neuro wanted to be part of the study since she has many patients on Ty but Biogen and their rep made it impossible for her. They constantly changed their mind about how things should be done, what order they needed to be done, etc. It's hard to believe that there is no one in the entire state of Nevada who can do the blood draw.
It's ridiculous. The lab kits are provided by Biogen and after the blood draw they are returned to Biogen for the testing process. I don't understand why it is so difficult
My neuro wasn't the only one in Nevada who gave up.
Thanks for your well wishes, everyone. I'm leaving for California tomorrow and I will be there for 2 weeks. Perhaps I'll be lucky and Biogen will find a place in central California for me to be tested. I'm keeping my fingers crossed. I would even be willing to go to southern California if it was in the L.A. area. It's a long drive but it would be worth it for piece of mind.
hugs,
Shayna
