I took tysabri for at least two years and now am suffering PD and MS! Is there a connection to the drug?

Are you sure you have MS? I was misdiagnosed with MS and eventually diagnosed with PD. I never took any MS meds though.

I was diagnosed with Multiple Sclerosis (MS) three years ago. Tysabri is a treatment for MS. I was on it for two years before developing PD. I quit the tysabri and started PD treatment. Ultimately I stopped the PD treatment. I spend a lot of time on pubmed and google scholar. Nowhere did I find a connection between tysabri, MS or PD.
