RE: [TMIC] End of birthday lists
Well my goodness hello Dalton, you are so right. We have been blessed for many years, Barbara and want to thank you. I sure do miss this forum (TMIC) and hope that people will keep coming back. I believe they will. Dalton, your seizures are less from avoiding magnesium. That is great to hear.Had to snicker about birthdays as we get older I'm right there with you!! So nice to see all of you on here. Happy New Year! May we all have better health and peace to all!

As for Facebook, or Faceplant, as I have recently come to call it, it is unsafe and prone to being hacked, as mine was, which led to my taking my accound and pages down. Possibly, after a few more hacking scandles, more will apprexiate the more secure email communication.DaltonPS: I went over to tea from coffee and now avoid magnesium, and the seizures are far less.D.Butbas we get older I pay less attention to birthdays.

You are correct in all your reasons. I'm still here on TMIC as well as on FBk and that's where I try to remember to send birthday greetings. Patti - Michigan On Dec 31, 2013, at 8:46 AM, Barbara H. barbara...@gmail.com wrote: Hello all, Some of you may remember how the birthday lists started many years ago. Someone found an online site that would send e-cards to others as a support for a charity, so many of us sent in our names and birthdays so as to use the site to raise funds for the TMA. Not surprisingly, the site died after a while. A girl on the TMIC named Carrie and I had accumulated the birthday names and lists, and after she left the list, I continued to send them out once a month. I've decided to stop doing so, for a number of reasons. 1) Not many people are here any more. Many are on Facebook and it is easy to send birthday greetings there. 2) I don't think many (if any) people use the birthday list to send individual greetings to anyone on it. (A few of you have faithfully sent happy birthdays on TMIC to those celebrating each month as a whole, and I have appreciated that.) 3) Since all mail that goes through the TMIC is archived online, I have wondered if it is a problem to have lists of names and e-mails there, if that increases anyone's spam content. 4) I have been sending out individual birthday greetings to everyone on the list, and more and more of them are returned to me because the address is no longer active. 5) For those who are no longer on the TMIC, I don't know if they welcome the birthday greetings or if they don't want me to bug them any more. So for all of those reasons, plus the amount of time involved, I have decided to stop sending the birthday lists out each month. I've just finished updating it with the latest information I have - if anyone else wants to take it over, I'll be happy to send you the list. I'm still here on the TMIC and plan to continue to be. I wish all of you a very happy and healthy 2014. Love, Barbara H.

Hi Dalton, I was not originally a part of this email tree; however I am so happy to hear that you have found some relief ~ and with mustard, of all things!My guess is that mustard has many good properties.

I wanted to let you know as promised that i FINALLY got insurance in place and I saw my neurologist. I have something called myoclonus and am being treated for the jerking. The twitching in my fingers is because of my brain knowing how to type fast and my spine is keeping it to do so. I understand what he told me but it is difficult to explain. But, the jerking and the twitching are different. The inflammation from the TM did a number on my spine but at least the jerking isn't as scary knowing it can, and is, being treated. I feel relieved and hope the medication works. I have a referral to see someone about my bladder retention issues also.Thank you for your support.

How about seeing your yearly doc you saw before TM? He/she could probably get you in way before August. I have taken both Neurontin and Lyrica.I am back on Neurontin after trying Lyrica.Lyrica caused a lot of swelling in feet and ankles.Some prefer it and have no problems. As far as the urinating problem - I think most of us have that problem.The important thing is that you are able to completely void your bladder. Do you have problems wetting during the night or are you able to feel enough to wake up to go to the bathroom? Again, the important part is voiding the bladder. I think it is important to get into the doc soon.You can call his office, ask to speak to his/her nurse and explain what is happening to you. Be adamant that you need to be seen quickly after having convulsions/seizures.I would think that would get their attention, if not, find a doc who will see you. Your first neurologist will send the info on you to the new one. Good luck and please keep in touch with us with your progress with these issues.

Thank you so much for replyingit's so nice to hear other experiences. I am so sorry what you are going through and I totally understand the million other symtoms that come along as soon as you lose one. I too am on 80 mg of baclofen (seems like the magic number) and have been for awhile. It is possible, I guess, that after awhile your body starts to tolerate the meds. They started me on baclofen when I was still in the hospital. I was just starting to feel parts of my legs and it was excruciating pain. (at least I could feel, I thought). and they gradually increased the baclofen to 80. like i said I am so scared and can't get in until August 1st to see my neurologist.
