This is great news, Cheryl. I wish you continued success on it. So overall, you're feeling pretty good on Tovaxin?

One side effect I have noted in your progress with this trial is the number of relapses you HAVE NOT had! You were the "If it's three months it must be relapse time" girl...and you have been amazingly healthy lately! ( other than the sinus thang!)

And who says you have a bad memory! Yep, that would be me...but you are right. I have not had all those relapses since being in this trial. I have only had 2 treated relapses and one untreated one since entering the trial in Jan of 2007! Woohoo! So, irregardless of what some of the naysayers are saying about this drug, it has certainly worked for me!!!

Actually yes, other than fatigue and some neuropathic leg pain. I am doing pretty good. Certainly a whole lot better than I did on Beta, Ty, and Copaxone.

I'm so pleased for you FG!

I remember when I was on a trial, (way back when) I was so glad to hear that I was getting the real thing. I believe it gives you a head start on the others who are getting placebos, and hearing about the decrease in your number of relapses makes me think that this sounds like the right one for you!

YAY...and I agree with the flower thing. You deserve a lovely bunch of whatever takes your fancy......or should I be realistic and say whatever is left over at the end of the trading day?

I just love good news! I really suspected you were on the real thing when you stopped making the MRTC's. I'm glad you were really on it and that it helped you so much.
