Anal Cancer & Multiple Sclerosis/Auto-Immune

Hi, I am a 52 year old woman who is in the middle of treatment at MSK. Typical protocol 27 Radiation treatments, 2 Mito and 5 Xeloda M-F. I am wondering if there is anyone else who also has MS? I take a monthly infusion drug Tysabri which is an immunomodulator. My Onc says AC is directly related to me taking this drug.

I'm worried about continuing any MS medication since they are all immunosuppressants, for fear that AC or any HPV related cancer will reoccur. Does anyone have any experience with this? Any thoughts?

Thank you
