Regarding your survey re: Tysabri, please note the following in your questions: 1) Tysabri was never suspended, it was voluntarily withdrawn by the manufacturer Biogen, pending further review of Tysabri's safety data; 2) Doctors did not assign the risk of PML as 1:1000, the FDA did; 3) SPMS has two categories, with relapses and without relapses (which the former - with relapses - qualifies for Tysabri). Happy New Year to all. Lauren
