Maybe it's the MS, maybe it's because I'm now officially old but, I can't wait for New year's so I can take a big sigh of relief that IT"S over :) ( I might be getting Grinchy); 5:10 PM

I hope you have had a wonderful Christmas and that you have the best New Year yet! :)

It has been such a long time, I look forward to catching up with everyone.

Take care of yourself.

MEDICATIONS:

I have taken Copaxone, Avonex, IVIg, Tysabri, and 5 doses of Novantrone in 2007. I also participated in a Rituxan Study in 2005-2006. In the fall of 2007, while still on Novantrone, I began having "break through" symptoms, which became more and more frequent. In March 2008, I had an MRI that showed many enhancing lesions--Novantrone was no longer effective. Tysabri had been discontinued in November 2006, due to a questionable "anaphylactoid reaction". I received my first restart dose of Tysabri on April 8th, 2008, without experiencing ANY allergic response...I completed 9 doses of Tysabri in 2008, but continued to have some relapsing symptoms. I have, since December 2008, stopped all Disease Modifying medications and feel great...but don't tell my neurologist!
