Yes, I agree about the hydrating! I'm like Shayna. For 24-48 hours after the infusion I get flu-like symptoms. Every once in a while I don't, or they are minor. I discovered that if I drink a ton of water while I'm getting my infusion the side effects are a lot less. And when I say ton, I am talking about 2+ liters of water. I buy a tall 1.5 liter bottle of water and then another medium size bottle. I guzzle them all down. Always feel better after the infusion.

Shyana, congrats on the negative test! Yeah!!

I did manage to recover from the shingles -- what I thought was a second round was not so I could get my Tysabri on time. What a relief....
