Hi Jill, yes to the multiple TM episodes. Meds to suppress my immune system are Imuran and Rituxan infusions. I've had Lupus/Sjogrens for 20 years and has been very aggressive, then TM for 7+ years. What happened when you had your 2 TM episodes? Take care

I went from having TM to MS to no MS to Lupus. Oddly enough all "normal" lupus tests come back negative, but theres a new and specific one that came back positive. The crazy part is I was taking shots for MS since March! Good thing I went to a bigger and better hospital in the city. Do all of you out there with Lupus have multiple TM episodes? I know there is a whole spectrum of symptoms with Lupus. Do your doctors have you on any specific Lupus Meds? He just told me to take a baby asprin/day alond with Vitamin D and fish oil. Thanks for your input, Jill in Chicago
