$100 phone survey for Tysabri

Schlesinger Associates is doing a phone survey on Tysabri right now through Feb 16. They're paying anyone that's had at least one infusion $100 for 45 minutes. Sharon 866-861-0395 xt 201 - they're having a hard time getting people for the survey. Eastern standard time.... so I'm assuming they'll want the calls before 5?

Full disclosure, Sharon said they'd pay me a finders fee but they have none of my information except my phone/name so payout isn't happening for me. I told her I'd post on the boards since $100 is a hundred bucks.

If this is against the rules I apologize. I'm not advertising or gaining anything from this since anyone that does the survey will only know my screen name which the survey company can't tie to my personal info. If you call and do the survey you can say someone forwarded the information to you. I'm not looking for people to say they got a referal from me.

Hi. Thanks namaah - sorry I forgot to mention the referral while I was on the phone. They said they had one spot left and asked me questions for about 15 minutes, in a tire store while waiting for my flat to get fixed (that was a mistake!), before they finally said I could take the survey one day next week. So the survey may have gotten all the people they need now, if I heard correctly.

I took the survey yesterday and it took only 20 minutes. The woman was very nice, asked questions about my symptoms and treatment, specifically about the Tysabri. Very pleasant and worth $100. They did say they still needed a lot of people and that was just yesterday.

Who ordered the survey?

Hi

Based on the questions you were asked?
Biogen-elan or their competitors?

Sclesinger Associates are a marketing research compnay. The questions were about my symptoms, what medications I take, my diagnosis, what treatment options was I offered, why did I choose Tysabri, was it my choice or my neuro's choice and my experience in receiving it. I was asked to describe the day I received the medication, what happened before, during and after. There was no mention of Biogen/Elan, any other company, etc. Short simple questions and a thank you.
