nomoredrugs (allowed) for me - not even an option - though I wouldn't want to take them after this.

C.R.A.B. – copaxone, rebif, avonex and betaserone – all of these are only supposed to reduce attacks by magic number (1/3) (how can they accurately predict that ?).

Tysabri (aka Natalizumab) increases your risk of getting a rare but very serious (sometimes fatal) brain infection (progressive multifocal leukoencephalopathy-PML). This risk increases the longer you use natalizumab. If you are also using other medications that weaken the immune system, such as such as interferon or immunosuppressants eg. azathioprine). This medication should be used alone and only when other treatments have not worked or you are unable to use them. Tysabri is used to treat multiple sclerosis when symptoms appear in cycles of worsening and improvement (relapsing/remitting).
