New Treatment

Tomorrow I start a new MS therapy. The drug is called Tysabri and is delivered via infusion. I hear the infusion takes an hour, and then they watch you for an hour. What are they watching for? Should I start juggling or doing magic tricks?

This drug was pulled from the market back in '06 owing to some rare, but pretty austere side effects. Since the drug was re-released in 2007, they've prescribed it as a monotherapy and have had much better results. Also, I received a blessing Sunday and part of it was that “the side-effects would be minimal.”

Well, I better go practice my juggling!

Good luck with the new treatment! Hopefully it will bring the results you're looking for.
