Chris,

You've been taking Tysabri? For how long?

I'm surprised the Tysabri wasn't contradicted by the HiCy treatment.

Nah and I just wanted to be doing something rather than nothing or taking Copaxone like everyone else. But they were running a research program here in Denver and he asked if I wanted to start, have my blood checked, and if it came back positive we'd stop. It did, we are, and life goes on.
