Hi Mody!

I think I've written to you already but just to be sure I'll write again. I know that Tysabri has definitely improved my condition and many others, and it has even helped people get out of their wheelchairs and walk on their own. I highly recommend it and I hope you can get Tysabri soon!!

My best,

Lauren

Hi Lauren-

I was also relieved when I was diagnosed with MS...I was thinking it was going to be a brain tumor. ( : I just got the results from my latest MRI...no spreading..yeah! ( : So far, so good, we'll hope it take 7 1/2 yrs for my 1st exacerbation! That would give me 6 more years, at least!! Good to hear your speech and story...great job.

Thanks and have a great day,

Wilson

Hi Wilson! It's nice to hear someone else relate to feeling relieved with a diagnosis. Congratulations on no spreading!! Try to stay as stress-free as possible, and maybe you'll never have an exascerbation!

Thank you for writing! Have a great week :)
