Started in June of this year. Does have some mild side effects. Very fearful of possible brain disease.
I dont see any change in myself except that my cognitive skills are becoming worse. Not blaming the Tysabri. As Ive said before they could be giving me water instead of Tysabri and I dont know that Id know the difference!! Im not bad mouthing it...I just dont see a difference for the positive in me. However I dont know how Id be if i were not taking it so I just dont know!!!

I started this a few months before I got pregnant. I made a trip with my husband from MD to Alabama and I was fine the whole trip.
