Hi Kevin,
I have had TM since 1981 and in that time I haven't had a dozen days without pain. Sometimes days it gets hard to bear, but I gave up the so called pain relievers, all I take now is a couple of anacin for headaches. My pain is from the waist, where I still have banding , to my feet. All these years I have felt like my feet were in a pan of hot water, yet I have had a toe nail removed with no pain from that. I attribute all of my pain to nerves redirecting the signals. I'm a C7 , limited to a power chair.
I have question, have you or anyone else on the list, had any trouble with feet and legs swelling? If so have you found any help for this.
Ken in Central Tx
