I was diagnosed in 2004 with progressive MS I also have the JC virus I think because I was on Tysabri for many years. Does anybody else have or heard of the JC virus?

Those on Tysabri, how has it affected your immune system? I’ve got a 3 year old, so colds ect are more prevelant for me.

Just signed up here. I was diagnosed last fall and started on Tysabri in Dec. So far it’s been really good. My symptoms have gotten better (which no one promised me). Lately, some things have gotten worse. Life has been stressful recently and I know that can cause relapses. I’m curious how everyone managed their stress level.

DMT decision - Ocrevus, Kesimpta, Tysabri...ooh my!!!

*Update - my JC virus came back positive at titre level of 2. Although very low, Tysabri wouldn't be recommended so it looks like my decision is a little easier. Kesimpta or Ocrevus 🙈 I am now the happy owner of a BRIGHT SHINY left sided optic neuritis episode, confirmed by MRI. 💥🎉 Thankfully, ...

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, bu...

My provincial health approved me for Ocrevus months ago. At first there was a delay to getting my blood work done but I got the d...
