11305938 tn?1417998533 I just wanted to share a little good news with all of you. I had my neurologist appt on Friday. She said that my recent MRI was wonderful. The lesions in my brain did not light up and there are no new lesions since my last MRI a year ago. The Tysabri is working and has even shrunk two lesions in size. This is the first time I have ever had good news after having a MRI done. I guess you could say my MS is stabilized at the moment. Thanks for everyone's support.
572651 tn?1530999357 Don't you just hate them catch 22 good news things. Sad to hear you are in a relapse. However that didn't seem much a vent.
1831849 tn?1383228392 Very, very interesting Kyle! One of these days we'll get that magical home run "You have it or you don't" diagnostic test biomarker, but this is good news for those of us already 'in the system' so to speak. Delighted you were able to better fine tune your future treatment with this information. Getting warm fuzzies with all this research news lately!
Avatar f tn I love good news - this is beyond good, it is wonderful! I know cosmobirdy will be so happy to hear these latest results too if you haven't already told her. Thanks for sharing the happiness with us here!
1831849 tn?1383228392 Good news for Lemtrada (alemtuzumab). The Peripheral and Central Nervous System Drugs Advisory Committee has recommended that the FDA approve alemtuzumab for the treatment of MS. As with any of our favorite concoctions there are serious risks, but the reduction in relapse rate seems to outweigh them. http://www.medpagetoday.com/Neurology/MultipleSclerosis/42899?
Avatar f tn I saw my neuro on Friday and in the course of a fairly long appointment and discussion, I asked a lot of questions. One in particular had to do with oral meds, which we've been told for years are right around the corner. He says yes, they'll definitely be available very soon, but prescribing them will be difficult because of their side effects. Only select patients will get them. I asked if this included those who couldn't tolerate or just didn't do the injections.
572651 tn?1530999357 This release last week announced that Tysabri is now in Phase 3 studies for use in treating SPMS. That has to be good news for anyone following the ASCEND trial.

198419 tn?1360242356 Good news Ren. #1 is behind you and now you can forget about it for three and a half weeks. Just keep an eye out for those little improvements I expect you'll start noticing. I hope you saw my note. I've been thinking about you even though I didn't make it to this page soon enough. Michelle came out to a forum member lunch immedicatley after infusion #3 and managed to eat fish tacos. She even made them look good! Maybe you can fly up and join us by the time you get to #3, eh?
1831849 tn?1383228392 Thanks for sharing the good news. Keep it up. Because its the best odds we have to beat down the MonSter.
1831849 tn?1383228392 I had my 5th Tysabri improvement last Sunday. Since then I have noticed a major improvement in the way my legs feel and work. I mean a major improvement. My legs have not felt this good in a very long time. I have also been exercising regularly for the last month and have lost a bunch of weight. I'm trying to determine to what I can attribute the improvement. Is it the Ty infusion? The exercise? the weight loss? I'm kinda hoping it's the Tysabri.
1045086 tn?1332126422 //www.nationalmssociety.org/news/news-detail/index.aspx?nid=2525 ---------------------------------------------------------- This one is a clinical study being conducted by Biogen to evaluate the effectiveness of Tysabri in people with SPMS. 800 people are being recruited worldwide to participate in a double blind study (meaning some participants will receive Tysabri and some will receive a placebo and you won't be told which group you are in during the study).
645390 tn?1338555377 Great news Michelle, You sound very hopeful, like you are at the bottom of the downhill and about to fly like a bird. Thanks for the info on the BG12 pill as I had never heard of it. An old bloke in our MS support group took one Gilenya pill recently and ended up in hospital for a couple of weeks. Best of luck to those whom it works, but I have heard too many dodgy stories about this little pill to give me the confidence to try it. I wish you all the best.
Avatar f tn You have to be off of Tysabri for 3 months before you can start it and I would have to stay down there for the week, so certainly have to save up for that! http://photos.al.com/4558/gallery/lemtrada_approval/index.html#/0 It's a great article and happy to share it. And I'm feeling back to normal, now that CPAP is covering the night shift for me.
Avatar f tn Will Tysabri help me if I can't walk very good at all? It's everyday all day,I think I have progressed from RRMS to Secondary progressive.
Avatar f tn while on Tysabri. Any news would be appreciated. Also, does anyone report increased fatigue while on Tecfidera? I am over all of the flushing and gastro upset. Just very fatigued - way more than ever before. I am taking Nuvigil and could not make it through the day without it! Be well and try to stay positive everyone.
294425 tn?1288528395 It is always good to know the news headlines. Thanks for sharing this one. I'm with you and very curious as to what the final word will be if it is Gilenya or Tysabri related. I have read several stories today about this and all they have right now are questions.
645390 tn?1338555377 ) Think I am sticking with Tysabri for now, seeing neuro as well tomorrow and I know I will get a good report. Having a great summer with my boys... Just a quick update. I haven't been on the boards for some time, not too much extra time right now. I imagine September I will be back more often. (It is strange, i rarely think of MS anymore. I would love for that to stay.0 The only thing that has been increasing is Migraines.
400099 tn?1282954864 I went for my 6 month followup on copaxone and post dx. The good news is that the copaxone seems to be "doing its job" cause no new lesions. Bad news is that I was dx'd pretty advanced with a bunch of lesions. They told me the damage I already have isn't going away. The rheumatologist wants to figure out a drug that will cover both the lupus and the ms. My neuro started talking about tysabri. It scares the **** out of me. I just looked it up.
