Dear all,
There are a few Alemtuzumab (Campath) abstracts being presented at the AAN conference in April.
As someone who has had their two infusions - the last being 27 months ago, it's quite comforting that the treatment effect seems to hold good for the majority of patient for at least four years after treatment.
I now have an annual MRI and a six-monthly check-up. My last MRI (with contrast) in December 2009 showed no signs of any disease activity which fitted with the clinical assessment.
I was pleased to read that some of the Revimmune patients were also seeing similar results.
Coincidentally Dr Khan is also the lead researcher in an upcoming review of CCSVI

PS...I evidently haven't emailed you since the last time I formatted and reinstalled Windows. Your email address is no longer in my book, although there is a paper copy buried around here somewhere.
At your leisure, could you email me or PM you email address to me again?
PLEASE just forward MS research papers not any of your collection of under-the-counter material. That photo of Dignan and Jimmylegs which you sent last October must have broken the decency laws in 132 different countries - and I always thought of Canadians as reserved people!

We encourage you to also visit our Multiple Sclerosis support community on Experience Project.
Experience Project is a vast and powerful community where people connect anonymously through life experiences. It's made by the same people who built This is MS,
on the premise that no single life experience-- like having MS-- defines a person. EP now covers over 5 million true stories about every possible life experience. Find and share yours!
