Hey guys!

Guess what? I'm getting my Tysabri infusion right now!! Yeah!! Yeah!! Yeah!! I didn't want to share the good news earlier because I didn't want to jinx myself until I was actually in the chair hooked up.

It turns out I only spent one night in the hospital because they discovered that what they thought was a giant painful abscess on my heel coming back from the original infection was......well they have no idea what it was! It disappeared within 24 hours. The docs are extremely puzzled because they were talking bone biopsy (which they hadn't done before), more antibiotics etc.

But the MRI came back negative for bone infection and looking much better than it had last month during the full blown tissue infection. This time, all in 1 day, the pain disappeared, the swelling went down, the redness receded, the black crust disappeared. It literally was a miracle! . They still have no idea what it was. After looking at my foot today they gave the okay for Tysabri.

So today is 12 weeks exactly since I last had Tysabri (with one blast of steroids 4 weeks ago to act as a bridge). So it looks like I am back on my regular Tysabri schedule. Life is practically normal again. I am ecstatic!


What an ordeal this has been over the past 9 weeks. Ugh. Say NO to pedicures!
