Hello!
I was diagnosed about 10 months ago with MS. I had my first MRI back in March and start Tysabri. I had two lesions when i was diagnosed.
In December i went for another MRI to see how Tysabri has been working. A few days later i was informed i had more lesions but they were not active. Neurologist believes that these lesions formed after the first MRI but before Tysabri was in full affect (so possibly before July). I have to go for another MRI in March.
My question is...... how fast and often do these lesions form? When diagnosed i did not want to do research. I did not want to know what was ahead but rather go day by day until i was ready for all the information. I thought it would take years for lesions to form, not months.
When i went in December i was really hoping they were going to tell me they misdiagnosed me. I never thought it would have gone the other direction.
Any information that can be shared is appreciated as now i feel like a lesion is being formed every second (realistically i know it is not, but now i'm over paranoid).
Experiences?
