In 2000 I was diagnosed with cancer, was teaching special needs kids, had 3 teenagers and watched my mom die of lung cancer while I was battling breast cancer. I am absolutely convinced this is why I fell apart with TM less than one year later. Stress! Cindy

I also had pneumonia in Nov and the flu in January. I got TM on Jan. 3, 1991. My neuro was so good. He diagnosed me before any testing was done. He told me at the time that this could have been a virus that had been lying dormant in my body for years and the stress activated it.I have always wondered if this virus is somehow related to the polio virus. I was exposed in the 50's when my cousin got polio and a good friend of mine also. I remember their symptoms at the time and thinking back on it, it was a lot like TM. Could it be something in the polio vaccine that everyone gets?

I hadn't even missed work because of it. Had been taking antibiotics and feeling a bit poopy and tired, but no other symptoms to speak of. Gracie How well do you know your celebrity gossip?
