Lemtrada interview

[spacedive]

Hi everyone,

My interview about Lemtrada is at:

Firefox is better at viewing it. Good times
If they move it off the front page it should be then at the section of afternoons on 11.

I'm not sure how to find this interview. I would love to view it but I saw it was removed and don't know where to go to see it....I'm anxiously awaiting Lemtrada and would love to get some more info about it.

I've tried everything else with no luck and I'm currently in a MS relapse and just need something that works. Tysabri worked great for me but I had to come off b/c of JC+ , prior immunosuppressant use, length of time on it, and titer score was off the charts! Just my luck.

Great interview! Thank you, spacedive, for sharing your results in such a manner.

I will go to a MS clinic (finally a MS specialist ) as soon as it can be scheduled - will check to see what holdup is when I go to my current neuro's office on Thursday for massage therapy. Going on Lemtrada is one of the first things I intend to ask them about.

I feel that I am almost at the point of no return (if that makes any sense) as far as my current disabilities and rate of progression lately. And so I am almost desperate to have something that will halt this MoSter. Like NOW.

I went to usercp like the moderator said but still can't find the interview...any help would be greatly appreciated thanks!

Just watched all 3 videos- so glad it changed your life for the better. Thanks for being open about it as I´m sure that you gave someone else the motivation to also seek treatment.

I watched the 3 - thanks for sharing.

At my last appointment in Dec my Neuro suggested looking into going on Lemtrada and told me to research it and we'll talk again. I am now scheduled to see him next Wednesday for a follow-up.

I'm SPMS with weakness slowly effecting my left arm and leg to the point I can only walk very short distances with a walker or use a wheelchair. My biggest hope is to slow down (stop?) my disability progression. I'm currently on Aubagio.

two questions

I just heard of Lemtrada (watched the videos here). I have some questions and I prefer this forum to reading tons of info on other ones

1 - Is it for me? I have RRMS almost 30 years. I have a little of every symptom (and a little more of others). I'm taking tysabri 3 years now (copaxone 17 years before). I haven't had any attacks since I'm on tysabri, and didn't have that many before either. But, my life isn't normal at all. I walk poorly, fatigue, can't drive, always running to bathroom, cog-fog, some vision and hearing problems...

Is this a drug that can help me?

2 - I first heard about Lemtrada here cause I was asking about chemo that I'm going to need for breast cancer now (when it rains it pours ). So what I didn't understand - Is Lemtrada a type of chemo? Can it be that it will be my option for chemo?

Thanks

About my previous post

I just heard of Lemtrada (watched the videos here). I have some questions and I prefer this forum to reading tons of info on other ones...

Just spoke to the oncologist and she said Lemtrada won't be a good chemo for my breast cancer (actually I said Lebarta cause the name escaped me that minute so I hope she knew what I meant) so I guess I'm not looking into Lemtrada now
