I met a woman whose TM was caused by the virus that causes shingles. I met another woman who had shingles and her diagnosis for her resulting paralysis was thought to be TM or Guillane Barre, either way thought to be brought on by shingles also...my daughter's case is thought to be brought on by a virus or a vaccine...no one knows...
