I believe that there is a talk by one of the Doctors at one of the symposia
that is posted on the website that you could view on that subject. If it is
not a video presentation, it will be a power point presentation.  Please
check the website at www.myelitis.org and click on "symposiums".
 
I do remember the doctors talking about that a few times.
And yes, there are meds available and other methods available.
Take care,
Debbie

I grew up & lived in Dallas, Tx until age 38.  Moved to deep East Tx in 1983 & 
got TM in 2004.  I was told by my neurologist that I probably got TM after a 
flu shot.

After the awful news Janet Dunn has given us, I am wondering if where we live 
in the US has any relevance. I realize that there are those in our group 
that are from
other countries and I am asking them along with our US citizens to just send me 
your name and the city and state you were living in when TM attacked you. I 
hope
you don't mind my asking you to do this, but I think it would be very 
interesting if we found a certain area that was heavy with TM or very light 
with TM.   
Thank you, Janice

According to  my booklet from the Reed foundation, it is well within 
the realm of possibility.
It seems to depend on the level and type/span of your injury.
You should contact the Reed foundation and get that  booklet-- it was 
incredibly helpful
to me while i was in the nursing home being mistreated. And I shared 
it with the other
oppressed prisoners-- a couple of guys who told me it was VERY helpful.

Janice -  I am and was living in S.E. Wisconsin when I got TM.  I have heard 
that our northern states i.e., Wisconsin, Minnesota, etc. have more cases of TM 
& MS.  They believe it may be due to the long winters and lack of Vitamin D 
during our long and dark winters.  I have been taking 2,000 IU 3 times a day.  
It is worth a try.

I don't think that where we lived when TM struck is the only underlying factor. 
 

 

I was watching CNN and the doctor, Dr. Grupa?, said that they have studied the 
cord blood of newborns and they have found that the cord blood contained over 
200 chemicals, not body chemials but harmful chemicals - "contaminated 
newborns" is what they called the newborns.

The Dr. also said that there are thousands of chemicals that are in our food, 
air, clothing, cleaning supplies, etc. that have NOT been studied to make sure 
that they are not harmful.  A Congressman has submitted a bill that will not 
allow any chemical to be used until the chemical is proven not harmful - as it 
stands now, a chemical is put into use and used until it is proven to be 
harmful!  So we are all guinea pigs for the industries.

usually has some pretty good info about what's going on in the world of stem 
cell research.
I just got this email today...finally, some of these hoaxsters that are taking 
peoples life savings under the guise of "curing" them with stem cells, are 
being rousted out...

The claims that embryonic stem cells actually have a chance to help someone
