Default Good NEWS!
I received a call from the Site Coordinator today with the information about the Tovaxin clinical trial.

I was receiving the real thing!!! Tovaxin not placebo!! Yeah! I asked about my MRIs during the trial and they are going to get back to me on that information.

The first question she asked me was what I thought I was on...drug or placebo and why. I told her drug and because I ran a fever each time I got a shot and my exacerbation rate went from 4 to 1 a year. She said I was the only one that got it right at my site!

I am so excited! And YES I am going to continue in the trial!

Woohoo!

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

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?
