Barb, I hope the antibodies are just a temp thing.

Vonn, Miss Clarol messed me up. I kicked her to the curb!

Kay, looks like the gray will have to wait until Friday to hide. Jim started running a small temp and wanted to stay in bed today. It's all good, I was feeling a tad lazy myself today.

oh Barb ... so sorry, dear!! I don't understand all about the medications and setbacks ... Sandy is right - they are a temp thing (from what I've heard from others) ...

and voice your thoughts that Ty is helping you walk better ... I feel better with the copaxone (and some can't take it) .. it's been a year - some symptoms come and go ... some stay ... but none of them go away all together ...

sorry, Sandy about your bouts with Miss Clairol ... I've tried the others - and leaned on Clairol to get me out - and they have!

trying to stay busy ... and waiting until Friday to talk to the person about the job position ... then I can plan to MOVE! MOVE MOVE MOVE ...

Barb, I too hope the antibodies are a temporary thing.

Vonn, you reminded me that we're procratinators too.

Sandy, Glad you posted. Been missing ya.

We went out to dinner and then grochery shopping. Bring home less food that way, LOL. We've learned the hard way never to go to the store hungry. We always manage to spend a ton more than expected if we do that.

barb, that's a bummer.... but... I've read that it should be okay to keep taking it.

did they tell you how many times you have to test positive for the antibodies before they will be wanting to discontinue the Tysabri?

Approximately 9% of patients receiving TYSABRI developed detectable antibodies at least once during treatment.

Persistent antibody-positivity was associated with a substantial decrease in the effectiveness of TYSABRI.

Antibodies detected early in the treatment course (within the first 6 months) may be transient and disappear with continued dosing.

Where is everyone today? Hope you are all doing okay. Thanks for your messages yesterday. I guess I will just have to be patient (not my strong point) and see how this all plays out. Stayed home today and have been reading. The weather is lousy here; cold and raining. It sort of matches my mood

I get my hair highligted at a salon. Had to have it done twice last week because the first time my "few gray/silver" hairs turned white So then they had to put some color back in. I think my stylist left the solution on too long. She has made a few mistakes in the past several months. I may have to find a new one, but that is always a chore. I have been going to her for about 10 years. I think she is taking me for granted. I feel like I am considering cheating on her. LOL!

Today's been a pretty quiet day for me over here Thank goodness, LOL. Haven't been sleeping well lately and am very tired. At least tomorrow is Friday.

Quiet here too. Nothing much to report. Where is Renee?

Hey I'm here! Did not log on until after 7 this evening. Trying to do alot of extra studying with Dayton this week as I have to administer standardized tests next week. I go see my attorney tomorrow for my "coaching" before court on Tuesday. Its been almost 80 degrees here all week...hear that Sandy?

Whew, for a minute I thought I missed your court date. That would be a bad friend wouldn't it?

And please give me a break will ya? It snowed, sleeted (is that a word) and rained all day here.

busy here ... guess we all need to keep posting to keep Barb from going bonkers while she's not feeling good!

been medicating with DayQuil all day .. and NyQuil last night ... still hacking and sound like a duck ... but, made it a good day ...

trying to keep my wits about me about the vocational rehab appointment tomorrow .. this is getting 'me' into the program ... the job position is to be 'within' the department working for others with disabilities and helping them get back into the work environment with different skills ...

filling out the state job ap tonight to bring along ... sorta weird - applying for a job that will be helping me get a job ... funny but cool ...

don't laugh - I'm watching a video of guys fishing ... and they got some cutie guides and fisherman ... ahhh ... will fill you in after the appointment tomorrow!!
