I believe now, that it started in the summer before my dx's on 04/01/02 ( B/D is 04/20/64 ), because I was starting to get tired, but thought it was me getting older, I was only 37 at the time. Then in January, I started having chest pains, same as I did in high school. So, I started going to a chiropractor. But on Jan. 21, I thought I had the stomach flu for 1 1/2 weeks. It took 2 and half months and two hospitals visits. I was too tried to work and didn't know what to do. It was my chiropractic that called my doctor and told him to get me into the ER, because I had no feeling on the bottom of both feet. That was my second visit to the hospital. I was starting not to be able to walk and needing a walker. It was this visit that they did a MRI and found the lessens from T-4 to T-8.
Didn't start healing until 2 years,

I think mine came on gradually - when I thin back to what happened before I went totally numb, tingly and lame on my left side, there were some instances where I think it may have been my spinal condition: walking wobbly, bumping into things, spilling coffee , klutzy kinda things.BERNARD BUTCHER

Subject: [TMIC] tmI notice that every thing refers to acute TM. Has anybody in the group had TM that has come on gradually. Everyone should read the link that Frank sent about GP's. There I guess is nothing we can do about this but we certainly should be informed. At a hospital here in Virginia who employs physicians unless they see patients in an allotted time the physician is asked to leave. Am afraid that this is becoming the norm and is certainly a poor way to practice good medicine.Ann in Virginia
