I had a TM attack in 1997 and found this group. I rejoined several years ago and after a few months forgot how to get into the group! lol So now I've subscribed once again. I have never been without symptoms since the TM attack in 97. In that attack in just a few hours I became numb on the left side from just below the breast to my toes. It was like a line had been drawn down the middle of me and everything was totally numb on the left from that level down. I lost bladder control, too. I was later dxed with MS in 1998. Among other symptoms, I have been numb since the TM attack in different parts of my body and I have never been without some degree of numbness. For the past 3 weeks I've been abnormally numb. It is very much like the TM attack in 97 except I haven't lost bladder control and this time the severe numbness is on the right side. It started under my right breast, moving under my arm, around my back.... Now the numbness is all the way to my toes, except part of my hip. I did call my neuro and he asked if I thought I was in the middle of a MS flare. At the time I said no because I feel fine. Now I'm wondering if I made a mistake. Could this be a TM thing? What do you all think? glad to be back.... Sharon Marsden
