Had my first shot yesterday....1/4 the dose...no side effects...no site reactions or it might take longer than a day to get one of those I do not know. Your right after Tysabri I wanted the one that had been out the longest. A litte worried about liver enzymes. I am going to GP Tuesday and I will as...

OK I am starting Betaseron tommorrow. I am a little nervous the only other thing I have taken was Tysabri...........enough said. I am interested to know how this stuff is going to make me feel. They are stepping up my dose so I am not going full dose to begin with. Will this help me feel better? I k...

Maybe not to slim if we were all expose to the same common household detergent..............if you wash your clothes in it, it is in your clothes, if its in your clothes, its on your skin, on your skin in your body.

I had not thought of that! Gene mutation........hum....thought to ponder.

My company has donated $200 for me. We are a company of 7 people so I thought that was awesome. Don't feel bad nobody in my family has showed in signs in walking either.

Everything went well. I had a slight headache and felt somewhat tired afterwards. I do believe that was from being stressed from the whole procedure thing. So far so good. My next is schduled for March 18th I will let you all know how it goes.

I am not on anything right now. I was just diagnosed 1/12/05 however my neuro had never seen a brain lesion as large as mine either. I ask to see the MRI and can't remember much after that. Thank God my husband was with me. I am talking huge. Just one but HUGE. Also my spinal tap only showed one imm...

I will be taking my first treatment in the next 2 weeks. I don't know if this has happened to any of you already on Tysabri but I got a call from Biogen today and they have offered to help with me with the cost after my insurance pays their part. I have no idea how much that will be but they have to...
