Ok went to my Tysabri infusion, my next dose is at the end of the month....its been about 2 weeks. First few days I was very tired. This is now the second time on Tysabri. The first time was about 6 years ago. I went off it because of levels (JC). Now. I am on it every 6 weeks. Yesterday struggled a bit with cognition. its better today....

Tysabri is the best on the market for stopping further progression of the disease. It also tops the list of reported cases of PML. With you being JVC positive make sure you follow up properly.

Most DMT'S have the chance of causing PML but with a lot less risk.

You have my prayers that things go well.

Boy that's scary PML shesh….that's what made me hesitant to do it again. Seems nothing is really a plus as far as meds go...my doctor always tells me I need to be on something...
