Yes, I believe the pain is slowly getting worse. I believe the increase is due to the original affliction, much as a small patch of rust will spread slowly but surely. Of course I do not have the advantage of his higher education and multiple degrees, but I must agree with Frank about TM spreading "slowly but surely." I can feel my spasms, pain and symptoms in general, getting worse as time travels onward and upward...same as the symptoms. My new Internist is sending me back to the Neurologist and for more tests towards an answer of dx. How many years has TM had a dx of its own? I know that it has to have been around forever, but for how long has it been known as a disease? From what I gather, not long at all. Right? Allodynia, is the terminology for our displaced feelings of temperature? Mine is worse right before it is time to replace my pain patches. I have always thought mine had more to do with the tapering off of the drugs than anything. But, I hear more and more people mentioning it as an accompanyment to TM. I suppose either case might be true. Any thoughts? Jude ************************************** See what's free at http://www.aol.com.
