Default Tysabri #2 Allergic Reaction

Hi All,

I went for infusion #2 today and after a few UNsuccesful tries they FINALLY got a vein to use on me, they sugessted I get a port........Duh, that is what I wanted from the start......BUT after the whole dose of Ty went in I developed a slight red blotchyness on my arms and stomach.......they gave me IV benedryl and took a vile of blood from me to check for antibodies.

I would think that I should be OK for Tysabri in the future because it was such a slight reaction BUT the blood work will tell the story won't it? if I stay on it or not....Is this kind of a COMMON thing?

This is IT for me as far a the CRAB drugs go, I have tried them all, ty is my last hope........

Has anyone else had this problem?

Thanks

Joe
