Mom did great yesterday. They gave her a steroid drip to start with, along with Benedryl I think?, and boy was she talkative last night!! It was a long day for her, but with the 'roids'....she did great. She goes in for another infusion on May 2nd, then another 6 mos from there.
The side effect list does seem much longer than Tysabri, but so far she is doing really good, she even went to a support group meeting last night!
