Wow! Dalton really says it well. I was somewhat down this morning and
then reading his email and remembering what you have been through, it
pulled me up and I can move on today instead of feeling sorry for myself.
What really got me was Dalton's reference to his wife and how she cares for
him.
That is very accurate information Akua has provided not only to you,but to
the whole community. I too have never heard of steroids being continuously
prescribed. My doctors weened me off them after a few weeks. They didn't
help anyway.

Between all 3 of your comments, I think it was all well said. Living with
TM – plus any other problems that may also exist with our bodies – is living
with a “Cross to Bare”.In the
9 weeks of care required for me at the start of TM, my doctors said my
situation and how I handled it made
Yes;
I had four days of steroid drip in the beginning to reduce the spinal
inflammation and hopefully prevent any new lesions. But that was during the
initial stage when my spine seemed to be on fire.
But after that I only received a steroid drip during a flair-up about six
month's later, but
my Dr had me on steroids for about a week to slow my auto immune system way
down because that was what was attacking my spine.i havent had them since.

*Hey Dalton and all TM Family,
In my initial care 22 years ago, I was put on an IV drip of steroids
for my 2 month stay in the hospital. My immune system is shot; period.
I have to take all kinds of precautions to make sure I don't get sick.
But it happens now and again no matter how hard
