I just read an email about encouraging results with this drug. It was from the MSAA so you can go find the information.

Lisapca, it's Fancy1959,

I, too. received the same info from MSAA yesterday! I too thought it looked very encouraging since this is one of the first drugs showing promising results in our fight against SPMS. I believe this is one of several new therapies that are in the works! Stay strong MS Warriors, stay strong! Let us help each other to keep faith even when MS stomps all over our dreams. We never know when the next new therapy is the one that beats this fire-breathing monster we call MS! Together we are stronger! Fight on MS Warriors fight on!

Yes, I was on the double blind study for 18 months for spms and while I didn't know for sure if I had it I Did feel better. They finished that part of the trial in March and I was not chosen for the long term part of the trial and I'm having relapse issues :( can't tell if it's because of the phoenix summers or not but plugging along!!
