Also, Tysabri is being prescribed as a first line and/or second line defense against MS.

Again, this is incorrect as ...

I read it the same way you did, however, I thought perhaps Lauren misunderstood my comment about neuro biases, and retaliated against me personally.

What I didn't understand though is why I was accused of providing incorrect information, when Lauren only seemed to repeat what I said in my initial post. Or was I missing something?

Yep, statistics are only a number. The important part is what our various options are, the possible risks/personal side effects, and whether the drug works for us as an individual.
