Maji,
I am so sorry to hear about your situation. I know very little about this virus. I know it's been linked to some MS drugs. You may want to search some MS forums.
I did see this on Wikipedia regarding some success treating it. You may already be aware of this though.
FROM WIKIPEDIA:
"In June 2010, the first case report appeared of a PML patient being successfully treated with mefloquine. Mefloquine is an antimalarial drug that can also act against the JC virus. Administration of mefloquine seemed to eliminate the virus from the patient's body and prevented further neurological deterioration.[16]
On November 30, 2010, Cytheris announced that they had eradicated the JC virus from a PML patient, using their human interleukin-7 investigational drug (CYT107) combined with Chimerix's investigational, orally-available lipid conjugate prodrug of Cidofovir (CMX001).[17]"
