I was told the reason I don't get sick is because of the immune system is
way high...I haven't been sick but twice in my life.

Me, too!! It seems my immune system is stronger and each time the flu or
colds go around I might seem to 'start' it but my body seems to fight it
off! I have been really healthy as far as flu and colds! I was just
thinking of that very thing during the flu and cold season last Fall! Good
point to ponder!

Rob, we get so many different theories from so many doctors and neurologists
The answer I've gotten more than any is that it is a one time episode(in
most cases) BUT we each have to relearn so much because the lesion in our
spinal cord blocks what used to run freely from our brain. We have to learn
how to reroute the messages and sometimes it works...sometimes it doesn't.
That is why some of us have gone from total paralysis (in my case from the
chest down) to being able to walk even tho we cannot actually 'feel' plus
we suffer with constant pain, spasms, and temperature sensitivity. Each one
of us are so different. A lot also has to do with the degree of the 'attack
. A lot also has to do with the amount of PT that we have done. So many
questions, huh? It's going to be interesting to read all of the other's
answers.

Subject: [TMIC] QUESTION
It is funny after having TM for more than 10 years I still don't
truly understand it. Do we have weak immune systems or did we merely have an
episode in which our immune system did not work properlyÂ…a one time (for
many of us) thing?
