 Posted: 10/31/06 - 00:00 Post subject: Tysabri for Multiple Sclerosis |
  |
|
I was diagnosed with multiple sclerosis and my doctor has prescribed me Tysabri. I know Tysabri is a dangerous med, not something to play with. Last night, somehow, I took the overdose, an extra injection. Forgot that I`ve already took one. What happens if I overdose? More, I have become sensitive to injuries and I bleed like nothing. Is that just one of MS symptoms?

Hi. I have Multiple Sclerosis and also was prescribed with Tysabri. Never heard that one can bleed due to MS. Don`t you know anything about your condition? You should. Anyway, symptoms of Tysabri overdose remain unknown, but you should go to your doctor, like this minute. Tysabri can lower your blood cells, making it easier for you to bleed from an injury. Also, Tysabri makes you more sensitive, so stay away from people with cold, flu or some other viral infection.

| tysabri is not an injection that a patient does on his/her own. it is an infusion that is done at a doctor's office so i'm not sure why you think you are injecting yourself with tysabri. are you sure you aren't taking avonex, rebif, betaseron, or copaxone? i think you should check your medication and repost your question. |

| Last time I went to the doctor's in November he told me that this medication had just been put back on the market, it had been taken off because it caused people brain infections. I also learned that the medication is fatal when used along with avonnex and that is the reason why it was so deadly. Also, the medication is new, and it isn't prescribed. You take it via IV once a month at the hospital. |
