Aww, I'm sorry the Ty didn't work out for you. Maybe Gilenya?
Here's to the speedy return of your voice...
I started Tysabri last month, have had one infusion and I am dealing with Thrush that just won't go away, despite medicine, baking soda gargles etc. I have a really scratchy voice, and this all started about a week after the infusion. The last time I had Thrush was when I was on steroids and then started Rebif. I couldn't take the Rebif. I am not sure what to do. Reading your story kinda scares me. I am definitely going to be vigilante. I go for my next infusion on the 30th.
So sorry!!! sending big (((HUGS))) your way & also my prayers!!
Thank you all. I really liked Tysabri, was doing really well on it. Well expect the unexpected is my motto. Things can change in an instant.
Mary, thanks for K.D. Lang. You know its my favorite!
So, basically is sux, but can always be so much worse. See just when you think its bad, you break your toe and something else to think about.
I am off to bed, hope I can get up the stairs ok. I would hate a disaster to happen, and it is certainly possible. Falling backwards, railing coming off, who knows what lies ahead.
Good night all, and thanks for lifting my spirits
I'm sorry that the Tysabri didn't work out because it lowered your immune system too much. When you find something that finally seems to be working, but then it screws up something else. I am glad that the things that it has caused are starting to clear up. You must have felt miserable with all that going on in your throat - plus you couldn't talk.
I hope that they can find something else for you that works just as good as Tysabri.
Mary, I really like her version of Hallelujah.
Take care,
Kelly
Michele,
I am so sorry to hear about the discontinuation of Tysabri :( . Glad to hear your vocal cords are healing! You SO need a break! Ditto the Rosanna Danna quote.
You remain in my thoughts and am sending good vibes to you!!
Hugs to you for enduring all of these complications.

too bad the tysabri didn't work out. some folks in our groups here have had great results. like you though, some had to stop it for other weird issues/reactions.
i get the ulcers/sores in my mouth ever since my MS started. have no idea why they showed up. one doc said it could be due to my gastro issues. VA gives me a herpe medicine to take for 5 days when they show up. i get em so often yearly, beats me.
sorry it didn't work out and here's hoping something does, and soon. you deserve a break!
Healing thoughts coming your way!
Take care of yourself!
Hugs
Kristi
man I am sorry. You of all people need a break. As Rosanna Danna Danna said if it ain't one thing it is another. Take care.
Alex
For you Michelle. Maybe you need to hear this?

As Cohen said, "All the perfect and broken Hallelujahs have an equal value."
Love ya friend,
Mary
Michelle, all I can offer here is hugs. ~ L
Wow. I am glad they figured out what was going on with you and I'm glad that recovery is in your future!
Have they decided what treatment they are going to put you on once the Tysabri washes out?
