Hiya, Just figured I'd give you guys an update - I had my 2nd infusion on Nov. 4th. (and remember, if you all are getting tired of this, just let me know - I don't want to be boring everyone with my Tysabri stuff, lol.)

Hiya.. :) Thanks for your kind words and support, but I know I'm not the only one here on Tysabri....lbradley35 has been on it longer than me, and with an improved MRI for the first time ever! (Go Lori!!). I know there are maybe another 3 or 4 others here too, I'm not sure. And we have several people here involved in clinical trials, which is also a maj...

Heather.... I've missed you too! I hope things are going OK with you... :) You're right, it did require alot of thought and research and soul searching to make the decision to go with Tysabri. But I'm certainly not brave.....there are alot of people here who I think are brave, and I don't even come close... :) All I did was decide to try the only thing t...
