M.I.A...

Ah, yeah. Call it whatever you'd like...I'm about 90 blog posts behind on my reading list, I haven't been keeping up HERE with any trivial news, and I've pretty much taken a sabbatical from Multiple Sclerosis (but rest assured I HAVE been keeping up with my reading about California's OctoMom!). I've been out on furlough from work, spent some of my time on one of the local islands at a friend's house and, ever since my head injury, I've had PINK's song, "So What (I'm A Rock Star)" BLARING IN MY HEAD.

Ah, yeah. I think this is what some people might call a vacation...OR mental illness. Ah, yeah...whatever...

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!
