Tysabri Infusion #2: Down the Shoot

 So infusion number two was an even easier experience than the first. I killed a couple of birds with one stone, got some reading done for school while I sat in the chair. I found out I did test positive for the JC antibody, but I’m not sweatin’ it.  

Here’s a list of awesome things I’ve noticed, or better yet haven’t noticed since going on Tysabri:  

Muscle spasms-Waaaaaay less frequent, I can’t emphasize this enough

Weakness in my neck-Yeah, it sounds stupid. Sometimes though it would feel like my head was bobbing around like Annette Funicello on Entertainment Tonight circa 1995. This was unpleasant, but is has pleasantly decreased. 

Energy levels-Way higher. I’ve been joining Jackie in the fight against fat. I can now walk more than five minutes (try 45 minutes, bam!) on the treadmill without losing any sensation in my legs or feet.This hasn’t happened in ages! This is huge for me.
