My stomach definitely isn't what it used to be, but it did get easier as time went on. I find that it really does have to be taken with food, and preferably not at the same time as other meds of mine, or anything else that'll contribute to my stomach being more acidic. It really is important to make...

I wonder what drugs they were on before they started tecfidera?

it may have said I totally TLDRed, my doctor told me about this. that said I was on tysabri and did a course of ritxan so I need to continue to have JC antibodies tests either way.... yea!

Whatever is going to happen, you should push on life as hard as you can now. the more ground you can gain before your problems catch up with you the better. If you get to the point where you're a manager/director etc... and have control over your schedule before you start getting troublesome problem...

I do but I'm not voting because my ears have been ringing for years...

I find that my brain is constantly changing here and there and there have been a couple big shifts in my day to day insanity that I think have to do with what in my brain is inflamed at a given time.

I'm on my third day of the starter dose today, I had some flushing (which as told by my Dr's office nurse was hotter than I would expect it to be) and some itchiness (with the flushing) but no other issues. (a little nausea, but this had more to do with my not being in the habit of eating three meal...

I haven't read most of this, but I suspect these are not professional medical opinions. Get one if at all possible. Consulting the internet for health information, even an informed group of people like this, is a bad idea.

This is kind of out of left field but bringing up the eye changes I wanted to mention that I'd recently came across information on Heterochromia which I have/am of the eye color of/etc... my eyes changed around 7 or 8, and given the potential neurological causes for Heterochromia I thought it was wo...

I got chills etc... the first week or so and had my energy just flatline, but frankly I'm not sure I blame the rituxan for that. I'm at almost 3 months from my 2nd infusion.

I deteriorated significantly after taking a powerful probiotic supplement... I wonder what is in a fecal microbiotic transplantation?! poop, ideally from someone you are close with. i think it is is shown to work I would do this, but... it's kinda gross. That said, not as bad as having the sensatio...

Some activity here, BTW, but according to what I've been told the rituxan really starts working in month 2-3... hopefully it will I've had a lot of changes in my vision but none that passed the 24 hour mark (but it's like I can see my brain bubbling) also I am having either dropfoot or a really weir...

Hey Thirtyone. when I was on United healthcare I had this problem and was expecting a big fight moving over to blue Cross, but for bluecross I didn't even need pre-approval for this. If you can (and I know it's not possible sometimes) try to change your insurance, another company might have a better...

To note for the record, I've had some low energy days this week, but not the full blown flu like symptoms. Additionally my body temp has been low every day this week, but it doesn't seem to be infection related (I haven't had my thyroid checked in forever and it is probably that)

I know three hundred sounds like a lot but with something like fifty thousand people r
Treated with tysabri it really is not very prevalent.

I wasn't but I didn't see the recommendation in any of the lit I saw for Rituxan.
