Collapsed veins on infusions
I’m new to Tysabri infusions, but twice at a four times I’ve had collapsed veins. How can I avoid this? I also feel completely wiped out afterwards is that normal? I’ve only had four infusions so far.

I believe it helps if you drink a lot of liquid the day before your Tysabri. I have very tiny wobbly veins and I have had them collapse a couple of times. I do often feel a bit tired after infusions…also the liquid makes me really cold for a while. Best of luck with your treatment. I will say I haven’t ever had any negative side effect on Tysabri.
