I was supposed to get Tysabri next Friday. As you recall I had the bad foot infection from the pedicure that delayed Tysabri by months. They wanted me off antibiotics for at least 2 weeks (which was yesterday) to see if the infection came back before getting Tysabri. Bad news. In the past 48 hours it has come raging back. I sent pictures to the doctor today and he said it looked bad. He said tomorrow morning (Sun) I have to be readmitted to the hospital. They need to drain the new abscess, culture for bacteria (since nothing grew after 6 weeks on the last botched one), and possibly do a bone biopsy if it appears the infection is in the bone. Likely it's more antibiotics. I'm sure I am off Tysabri for a long time--not sure if I'll ever be able to go back on. . I guess the doctors treating this will confer with my neurologist. So sad..........
