For Multiple Sclerosis "I was diagnosed in 2010. Tried Copaxone and Avonex. They caused allergic reactions. Started Tysabri in March 2012. I haven't had any new lesions. I get tired and bad headaches after infusions. The cost is getting to be too much, even with my insurance from my employer and the assistance program from Tysabri."

For Multiple Sclerosis "I was on Tysabri for 103 infusions, almost 8 1/2 years. I was diagnosed in 2002. Copaxone first with reactions, then used Rebif for 4 years. Helped a lot while it was working, then it stopped in 2006. Started Tysabri. The best MS medicine! I loved it! I am going to miss having no symptoms, side effects, or flare-ups. I just talked with the doctor going to try Gilenya in 2 months after Solumedrol. Keep"

For Multiple Sclerosis "I was diagnosed with RRMS in 1992 while on deployment in Africa. I returned back to the States and had an MRI done to positively identify the MS. I was discharged from the Navy in 1994. I then started Betaseron in 1995 after having repeated relapses. I stayed with that for a few years then switched to Avonex, again, stayed with that for a few years and switched to Rebif, which was okay but began finding it hard to find injection points on my body. I then switched to Copaxone for a short time, and it was determined that I was allergic to the drug. In 2008, I started Tysabri and am still on it. The infusions are not a big deal because I am self-employed. Do I feel like my old self? Can't remember what that was like, however, I still scuba dive."
