Carol, I think I might be allergic to the Duragesic patches (fentayl) I wear. The patch area makes me itch unbelieveably and I itch all around it. I hate to have to go off them, but I can't stand this 24 hr. itching. Thanks, Natalie M. Carol [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote:

not to give sympathy but to better understand that we may not always be able to be at our best but rather are just trying to make it through the day. Gary, I like the way you put this. I think that now sometimes we are at our best and we have to get used to that being our 'new normal'.

Rosalie, I know that GB was one of the things (along with others) I was tested for before they finally gave the diagnosis of TM. I think that GB is a little better known. Heather in Calgary - Original Message - From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] To: tmic-list@eskimo.com Sent:
