Hi Jim,
There was a little bit of activity a few months ago between a few of us. I am
on Face Book also.
It was good to see your name today, because I was thinking about you this
morning. I'm glad TMIC was available 11 years ago when I was diagnosed with TM
and thank you for its availability.
James,
Please tell me why you want to reduce to 50mg twice daily after consulting with
Sandy. I was taking 100mg 3 times daily for about a year, but reduced to twice
daily due to cost, not due to medical reasons. Is there something about Lyrica

The link Barbara gave is the one I was thinking of. I even had a copy of it in
my 5 to 10 year old notebook. The highlighted info is what gave me hope when I
applied. It also has a statement about two extremities being impaired.

Hi Amy,
Thanks for sharing your TM story. It's stories like yours that make me furious
with how TM so drastically changes lives. I like your last line. You rock!

Yes, AOL has a buddy list. Two people agree to be buddies so you can live chat

Absolutely! This is another of several that you and I share. My husband's
coughs or sneezes and even his goose-honking nose-blowing cause the electrical

jumping reflex that he has never mentioned. I think my reflex is

Hi Anne,
I'm sorry to learn that you are experiencing difficulties after so many years
away from TM's clutches. I take 10mg Baclofen every eight hours that almost
stops the banding. The banding is around my mid-section - like a corset. I
also take Lyrica which has some muscle relaxing effects
I have been taking Lyrica for about four years for the burning/freezing pain,
pins & needles and ice-pick stabbing pain. It takes the pin, needles, and
stabbing away and makes the burning tolerable, but doesn't remove it. I take it
every eight hours and know if I forgot it for some stupid reason

It does get easier. The first two years can be the hardest, because you are
still learning about TM and waiting to see how much recovery you will have. The
more you learn, the more you will feel in control. The more you reach out to
others you learn you're not alone in overcoming what TM d

My husband and I have taken several trips since TM hit me nine years ago.
Traveling started after I read a proverb. "Hope deferred makes the heart
sick." I wrote in the margin of my Bible, It's time to say yes to Jim's

It could be the medications. I blamed mine on the steroids. I thought they

I have the burning and/or freezing problem so sometimes I play mind games. When
my feet burn so bad I want to cry, die, say good-bye to them, I try to
convince myself they're freezing . When they are freezing, I ask myself if
they are really burning. Either way they hurt, but it gives me a fee
Please tell more about pain management doctors and clinics. Anything would be

I know that Baclofen helps with my banding. I take 10mg 3 x daily. My neuro

Lyrica 3x daily. An RN on this site told me Lyrica also helps with banding so
I guess I'm getting double the help.

The description you gave sounds familiar. I didn't and could not have gone back
