Living in Calgary. Age 58 when got TM.
Grew up from age 7 to 21 in Hamilton Ont.  Steel town.  Lived within 3 blocks 
of factories from 1952 until 1966.  Lots of smog and pollution. 
Father who worked at steel plant had Rheumatoid Arthritis.
I got TM at age 58.
My middle sister (3  yrs younger ) diagnosed with TM at age 43 in 1991.
My youngest sister (7 yrs younger) diagnosed with Ulcerative Colitis at age 19 
in 1972.  
All the above are autoimmune conditions.  
I have often wondered if it has anything to do with where we grew up.

  Subject: [TMIC] Where TM struck


  I did not get many replies to my asking where people were living when TM 
struck them.     Actually, it was really scattered.     Sorry.
