I AM S HAPPY FOR YOU. HOPE THE PAIN IS GONE FOR GOOD. JANE/SPLENDORA TX
[TMIC] TM and Me & Terry Parker
Terry had spinal surgery Monday to remove a large calcified disk that was compressing his cord @ T12, (not related to his TM). However, the Neurosurgeon feels that it MAY increase his mobility! He came home from the hospital last night and is doing fairly well, although he certainly feels some pain. This morning when he got up he said that the pain he had been feeling for several months that radiates from his hip down to his leg is gone! We are so very hopeful. St. Paddy's Day marks Terry's 10 year "un-birthday" of TM. Many of you 'oldtimers' know, that he had no improvement the first 1.5 years, but very, very gradually over the years he improved to where he can now take some steps and is completely independent, with the exception of wheelchair dependent. He is still on Gabapentin, Baclofen and 7 mg of prednisone. Thanks to those of you that sent good wishes, prayers & love! Sandy Parker

I'm so glad to have found this site. I was diagnosed with TM in October 2008. My battle continues. Jeron o'Hara Rampersad Jeron, Welcome to the tm family!! Sorry you have to be here, but it's the best place to learn more about what's going on with your body!! I can relate to how you felt when you found this site!! I cried when I realized there were others who REALLY knew what was going on with me. That was 14 years ago at the end of April and I still learn things here, altho' I don't write much anymore. Feel free to ask any question you might have and someone will relate to what you need to know. If you haven't already, go to TMA website, sign up (it's free), and you'll then get the Newsletter and a membership list. Again, welcome!! janh
Re: [TMIC] TM and Me
Well, we are really happy to have a new member - except for the fact that you have TM to get here! Tell us your story of your attack of TM and how you are doing, if you don't mind. We have all done the same and know each other's stories. It seems that we all have many similarities and yet we are all left at different levels with TM. Please do not be shy about jumping in with any of the topics that come up.We all are just honest in our opinions and as you will be told over and over, "there is nothing that has not been discussed or asked in this group". We are very open and probably have many of the same problems that you do. Anyway, we are really glad you found us and we hope we can help in some way. It will help take away some of the "isolation" feelings that many of us had in having such a rare disease. Hope to hear from you.
