I've been here before, lost my way, and found my way back again! LOL!
My name is Erin. I was dx 10/2005 at Barrows Neurological in Phoenix where I used to live & where my heart will always be. I am now a single mother living in St. Louis under the amazing care of Dr. Naismith at the John L Trotter MS Clinic at Barnes.
I've tried Avonex, Rebif, Copaxone, and am getting ready to begin Tysabri later this month. Frankly, it scares me even though I have tested negative for the JC Virus. I've done the homework. I've been a responsible patient and read the research. I know the risks are reasonably minimal as a logical conclusion, but emotionally, I just can't get past the PML issues.
So I've returned here to MS World to ground myself mentally amongst those who not only understand, but who will help (try to) keep me sane. LOL!
