A list to share with Dr's and family to help inform them about our condition. john --- 35 Things you probably don't know about TM 1. It is a cousin disorder to Multiple Sclerosis. http://www.hopkinsmedicine.org/neurology_neurosurgery/specialty_areas/project_restore/conditions/ 2. Fairly rare disorder, only 2-5 people per million get it. 3. Approx. 1400 new cases a year in the U.S. http://www.ninds.nih.gov/disorders/transversemyelitis/detail_transversemyelitis.htm 4. Roughly 33,000 people with TM in U.S. http://www.ninds.nih.gov/disorders/transversemyelitis/detail_transversemyelitis.htm 5. Transverse myelitis occurs in adults and children, in both genders, and in all races. http://www.ninds.nih.gov/disorders/transversemyelitis/detail_transversemyelitis.htm 6. Can be Acute (happening within hours) or Subacute (happening within days or weeks) 7. The inflammation that causes such extensive damage to nerve fibers of the spinal cord may result from viral infections, abnormal immune reactions, or insufficient blood flow through the blood vessels located in the spinal cord. Transverse myelitis also may occur as a complication of syphilis, measles, Lyme disease, and some vaccinations, including those for chickenpox and rabies. 8. Can be Idiopathic (no known cause) 9. Typically a one time occurrence but there are some that have recurrent TM. 10. 10% or better possibility of developing Multiple Sclerosis but the possibility is fairly low if there is a normal brain MRI at TM onset...http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/18080852 11.Most symptoms of TM are identical to MS 12.Prevailing difference between TM and MS is that lesions are on spinal nerve in TM and on Brain in MS. 13.Transverse myelitis is a neurological disorder caused by inflammation across both sides of one level, or segment, of the spinal cord. This damage causes nervous system scars that interrupt communications between the nerves in the spinal cord and the rest of the body. 14. The inflammation and lesion created, is caused by the bodies own immune system attacking the myelin coating of the spinal nerve. 15.The segment of the spinal cord at which the damage occurs determines which parts of the body are affected. Nerves in the cervical (neck) region control signals to the neck, arms, hands, and muscles of breathing (the diaphragm). Nerves in the thoracic (upper back) region relay signals to the torso and some parts of the arms. Nerves at the lumbar (mid-back) level control signals to the hips and legs. Finally, sacral nerves, located within the lowest segment of the spinal cord, relay signals to the groin, toes, and some parts of the legs. Damage at one segment will affect function at that segment and segments below it. In patients with transverse myelitis, demyelination usually occurs at the thoracic level, causing problems with leg movement and bowel and bladder control, which require signals from the lower segments of the spinal cord. http://www.ninds.nih.gov/disorders/transversemyelitis/detail_transversemyelitis.htm 16.About one-third of people affected with transverse myelitis experience good or full recovery from their symptoms; they regain the ability to walk normally and experience minimal urinary or bowel effects and paresthesias. Another one-third show only fair recovery and are left with significant deficits such as spastic gait, sensory dysfunction, and prominent urinary urgency or incontinence. The remaining one-third show no recovery at all, remaining wheelchair-bound or bedridden with marked dependence on others for basic functions of daily living. http://www.ninds.nih.gov/disorders/transversemyelitis/detail_transversemyelitis.htm 17. Four classic features of transverse myelitis emerge: (1) weakness of the legs and arms, (2) pain, (3) sensory alteration, and (4) bowel and bladder dysfunction. http://www.ninds.nih.gov/disorders/transversemyelitis/detail_transversemyelitis.htm 18. Pain is the primary presenting symptom of transverse myelitis in approximately one-third to one-half of all patients. The pain may be localized in the lower back or may consist of sharp, shooting sensations that radiate down the legs or arms or around the torso.

A healthy 65 year old woman asked - what is shingles and should I get the shingles vaccine. The doctor explained shingles and the vaccine. Here is a portion of the article. Getting the vaccine does not gurantee that you will noy get shingles. But it does reduce your chances by 50 percent or more. And it does an even better job of reducing your risk of postherpetic neuralgia. I've had patients worry that the vaccine itself could give them shingles. That's because the shingles vaccine is made with a weakened - not dead - form of the virus. And a tiny percentage of people do get either a shingles or chicken pox - like rash within a month or so of getting the vaccine. You may wonder if the risks associated with the shingles vaccine, though minimal, outweigh its benefits. And if we were only talking about shingles, you might be right. It's not pleasant, but most people get through shingles just fine. Postherpetic neuralgia is another story. It can last for months, even years, and be debilitating. The shingles vaccine can cut the risk of that happening by two thirds. And I'd say that tips the balance in favor getting the vaccine. I've voted with my feet. I got the vaccine, because I've seen too many of my patients suffer from postherpetic neuralgia. Chronic pain can disrupt a person's life (end of article) Jim, I think this is a question for a neurologist. Unfortunately, I haven't seen mine in three years so I cannot ask for you. I think it would be good of all our Tmers who are seeing a neuro to call and ask if the neuro votes yes or no for the vaccine and post the results for us. - Regarding the flu shot: I did not have a flu shot proir to my TM that was later lableled idiopathic - undetermined cause. I was also asked dozens of times during my hospitalization and rehab if I had had the flu
Re: [TMIC] Does anyone know?
Well, my wife is the one who went from TM to MS in 1999. She's had flu shots almost every year since with no adverse effects, which leads me to conclude that it all depends on the individual.

You are one of the earliest ones I remember when I first got on (I remember since you are also in Michigan) along with Jude and others. I look on Facebook once in a while but am not on it much and did not even include my picture in my profile section (probably to the relief of Facebook friends). It seems like it can take up a lot of time yet I understand how it can help people connect but I do prefer this method of TM'ers communicating with each other. I haven't written much about my TM but the fatigue is the most annoying. I have been under stress with my mom in a nursing home with Alzheimer's and my dad having had a stroke last fall and living alone )but fortunately nearby). My two siblings live out of town so I keep track of both parents although my brother and sister do real well in coming as often as they can and giving me a break now and again. Applying for Medicaid a year ago and still not getting everything finalized yet has been almost a nightmare. This past week some news (or lack of it) regarding our Medicaid application set my banding off and I felt like I was being squeezed to death until I talked with our Elder Law attorney and it started ease off a bit. Does anyone else experience this increased banding or squeezed feeling in times of stress? I have appreciated over the years, on the list, the bits of advice given and the sharing of symptom experiences. Once in a while I have a slipper come off my foot and I don't know it until I see the slipper or my bare foot because I really don't feel anything much different whether the slippers are off or on. When this happens I remember the story I probably read on this list: a lady with TM was walking up church steps and didn't realize her shoes had come off until she heard people behind her laughing (may not be the exact story, but close, as I remember it). Anyway, I hope this list continues.

I don't comment as much -- if someone else has already said what I might have said, then I don't usually chime in. The TMIC as a whole is not nearly as active as it was when I first joined back some...oh, 14-15 years ago. I'm coming up on my 16th anniversary with TM on Sept. 1. I think one reason is that there is a lot of information available online now, and that's a good thing. When I first contracted TM, I didn't have a computer, and the local library had a two-page spread in one medical book, and that was it. TM was the first thing I searched for when we did get a computer, and this group was the first concrete link I found. It was a godsend, really, to have somewhere to post questions and compare notes. But now that so much more information is online, people may be getting their questions answered in their own research. And I think, too, for some of us who have been here a while, we've gotten our basic questions answered (even if the answer in some cases is that there is no known answer), so there's not as much to talk about. The main reason I stay on now is to be of help if anyone else has a question or just needs some empathy and support. Too, as Roger said, some have gone on to other means of communication now. I think the TM message board or bulletin board was pretty active for a while, and now Facebook is where many people go to interact online. I was in the group there for a while, but left -- the 50+ messages Bobby Jim referred to were just too much for me. When I first came online, TMIC was about the only thing I did online besides an occasional e-mail to family who had e-mail. But now nearly everybody has e-mail, many friends are on Facebook, I've found several blogs I read as well as news and entertainment -- now I have to be careful not to let computer time eat up too much of my day. And I don't know, but I think that may be the biggest reason some folks aren't as active. When I send out birthday greetings, if an e-mail bounces back to me, I'll make a note of it so I don't post that non-working e-mail again next time, but I don't delete the name in case they come back. It is sad every month to see that there are almost as many inactive names there as there are active now. I miss hearing from some of those folks and wonder how they are. But I truly think as long as there is a TMIC, there will be some of us here. We just need to wave every now and then. :-) Barbara H. http://barbarah.wordpress.com

Senior version of Jesus Loves Me 92 YEAR OLD PREACHER While watching a little TV on Sunday instead of going to church, I watched a church in Atlanta honoring one of its senior pastors who had been retired many years. He was 92 at that time and I wondered why the church even bothered to ask the old gentleman to preach at that age. After a warm welcome, introduction of this speaker, and as the applause quieted down, he rose from his high back chair and walked slowly, with great effort and a sliding gait to the podium. Without a note or written paper of any kind he placed both hands on the pulpit to steady himself and then quietly and slowly he began to speak When I was asked to come here today and talk to you, your pastor asked me to tell you what was the greatest lesson ever learned in my 50-odd years of preaching. I thought about it for a few days and boiled it down to just one thing that made the most difference in my life and sustained me through all my trials.. The one thing that I could always rely on when tears and heartbreak and pain and fear and sorrow paralyzed me... The only thing that would comfort was this verse. . Jesus loves me this I know. For the Bible tells me so. Little ones to Him belong, We are weak but He is strong. Yes, Jesus loves me The Bible tells me so. The old pastor stated, I always noticed that it was the adults who chose the children's hymn 'Jesus Loves Me' (for the children of course) during a hymn sing, and it was the adults who sang the loudest because I could see they knew it the best. Here for you now is a Senior version of Jesus Loves Me: JESUS LOVES ME Jesus loves me, this I know, Though my hair is white as snow Though my sight is growing dim, Still He bids me trust in Him. (CHORUS) YES, JESUS LOVES ME.. YES, JESUS LOVES ME.. YES, JESUS LOVES ME, FOR THE BIBLE TELLS ME SO. Though my steps are oh, so slow, With my hand in His I'll go On through life, let come what may, He'll be there to lead the way. (CHORUS) When the nights are dark and long, In my heart He puts a song.. Telling me in words so clear, Have no fear, for I am near. (CHORUS) When my work on earth is done, And life's victories have been won. He will take me home above, Then I'll understand His love. (CHORUS) I love Jesus, does He know? Have I ever told Him so? Jesus loves to hear me say, That I love Him every day. (CHORUS) If you think this is neat, please pass it on to your friends. If you do not pass it on, nothing bad will happen, but you will have missed an opportunity to reach out and touch a friend or a loved one. God Bless Us All!!!

Re: [TMIC] the run around
Well, me missus had her first attack in September '97 at T-8. No treatment received. Then in Feb '99 she had a second attack, this one at C-5,6. Her dx was changed from TM to MS and she's been on Avonex ever since. No more events, relapses, nada.One can't tell she's afflicted.

I got tm on 8/13/95. MRI showed lesion from T4-T5. Started out paralyzed from T4 to toes. Now numb in that area,with a few areas of hypersensitivity on left side. I have bladder/bowel problems,spasms,numbness and tingling. I walk with a walker. A year or so after dx. I had a flare-up and had another MRI. The original lesion was gone. My dx remains tm. I've never had an LP. Are your docs planning another LP? Why do they say there is not any sign of demyl from the spinal fluid? Isn't that what made them think (along with the spot on the brain) it was MS? I'm confused!

Or better yet, and as I do it, send all extraneous stuff to your own e-list. There is a way to create a group folder that puts all your e-addys at once.. and make sure to use the BCC: line only.
