Hi everyone,
I'm Trish. I've been dx'ed for about 9 years. In two weeks I'll have my 7th or 8th Tysabri infusion. I had previously used Copaxone, Rebif and Novantrone without good results. The depression from the Rebif was unbearable.
Tysabri has been good for me so far. I have not had a serious relapse since I started it. I've noticed that I have kind of lost my appetite and I've lost about 15 - 20 lbs. I picked up a bug this week and I'm coming down with something hard. I'm nervous because before Tysabri, I would experience enormous fatigue and relapse when I got any kind of infection. So, we'll see.
I'm glad I found this community and hope to participate when I am feeling a little more energetic.
Trish

>where can I get some of that?
It's the Tysabri! It has, for better or worse, completely changed my relationship with food. I have a much narrower selection of foods that I can stand to eat, and I am eating so much less. I'm not complaining yet - but if I lose another 10 lbs it'll be too much. I heard from another Tysabri person at my blog that the same thing was happening to her.
I no longer live to eat, though I still do live for caffeine

If it was not for my work and family in Texas I would move up there and live in the cooler temperatures and among the mountains!
