Jen ~ Thank you for the hug and you are right, it is great to have such a supporting forum!
Mary ~ Yes, I received your note. It's a deal , after the 3rd infusion I'll fly up to see you and Michelle!
Thank you again everyone!!
Ren
Good news Ren. #1 is behind you and now you can forget about it for three and a half weeks. Just keep an eye out for those little improvements I expect you'll start noticing. I hope you saw my note. I've been thinking about you even though I didn't make it to this page soon enough.
Michelle came out to a forum member lunch immedicatley after infusion #3 and managed to eat fish tacos. She even made them look good! Maybe you can fly up and join us by the time you get to #3, eh?
I think Shell misspelled you into a wonderful word and I'm going to use it for my sign-off.
BELIVE!
Mary
A little belated, but here's a big hug from me! It's so great to have a supportive forum like this one.
Dear Friends,
Your response to Shell's post was amazing and it eased my nerves, giving me the strength to pull it together and go for that first treatment.
The infusion went fine. I am was so fatigued yesterday afternoon I slept for 4 hours then my hubby woke me to eat and drink something. I did get a headache but nothing compared to my usual migraine, thank goodness.
I am still tired today but doing okay.
Thank you again for your encouragement and support!! I honestly don't know if I would have had the nerve without your backing.
Warmly,
Ren
How are you making out, my friend? I hope it went ok for you today, have been thinking about you. Post when you're feeling up to it and let us know. Take care.
One day at a time sweetie - I'm thinking of you.

Remember acceptance is a teeter totter, it is balancing in the middle never a done deal.

You will be in my thoughts, sending huggie vibes your way, whilst my fingers and toes are crossed that it all goes well for you!
JJ
Good Luck, Ren! I'm going back on it (soon, I hope), so you will have more company. Big Hugs to you!!!
I'll be there with you in spirit, Sweetie. My first is being set up for next week.

We talked about the other day so I know you are a bit anxious about the infusion. I think you will do great and come back and tell us all how easy it was. I am so hopeful that Tysabri will help you get your life back like gilenya has done for me. We will compare all the good stuff soon eough. Do well, be well, and let us all know how it went.
Hugs my dear friend.
Julie
Good luck to you!! I'll be thinking about you!!! =)
I forget to say that this is obviously sent to REN!!!!
Thanks for giving us all a nudge and I just want to send warm support and say I shall be thinking of you when you take your first infusion. I pray that this will be the right treatment for you and that everything will go smoothly
Love, hugs, smiles and sunshine

Sending lots of positive vibes your way.
Will be thinking of you tomorrow. Here's hoping all goes well and that your infusion goes as uneventfully as Rita's has.
Like everyone else, I really hope the Tysabri works for you.
Sending you a big hug,
Kelly
I join everyone else in hoping Tysabri is the answer for you. It's crazy how many variations of MS there are and how many different approaches might be tried before the right one is found.
more hugs if you can stand them,
Laura
I'm pullling for you Rennie, and will be thinking of you then.
Many hugs,
ess
Ren,
Good luck with Tysabri #1! I hope it will help you like it has helped me. I go for infusion #36 in a week or so, and so far so good. Still waiting to hear my JC virus antibody status. Did they test you for that? Hopefully the infusions will be as uneventful for you as they are for me.... :-) Keep us posted and let us know how it goes - PM me if there's any way I can help.
