Moving to Australia from the UK with MS

Hi everyone, I was diagnosed with MS 3 years ago, and have been receiving monthly Tysabri infusions ever since. I am hoping to move to Sydney, Australia next year, but the biggest obstacle is continuing my treatment over there. I have already found a few clinics over there that provide Tysabri, but my biggest concern is the potential out-of-pocket payments for it if it isn’t covered by Medicare. $2-3k AUD per month is not really an option. Luckily here in the U.K. it’s covered by the NHS. Has anyone done this before? Does anyone know if it will be covered by Medicare, or if I will need private healthcare? And if so, how possible is it to obtain that? Any advice on this would be massively appreciated. Thank you all. All the best, Jacob
