When I was first offered Tysabri I didn't want it.
Keep all your appointments to receive Tysabri even if you feel well.
Tysabri is administered in a clinical setting,
so you are unlikely to overdose on the medicine.
However, patients and doctors appealed to regulators to allow sales of Tysabri despite the risks.
Tysabri is typically used by people who don't
experience relief from other medications or who can't take other drugs.
You know, it's been nearly a year since Tysabri[natalizumab] was taken off the market due to safety concerns.
I'm lucky that I have been able to access Tysabri- I know of others that have had to campaign for months.
You can only receive Tysabri if you're registered in the TOUCH program, which
is set up to help manage the risks of this treatment.
One of the big blessings of Tysabri will be that the FDA is going
to now mandate that nearly all drugs coming on market are in a modified registry.
