Idiopathic means that the idiots don't know what caused it.
Seriously, Idiopathic means that there is no known cause for that specific TM.
In other cases the TM can be pinned down to a certain cause such as a
vaccination or having the flu or to being on a certain arthritis medication
such
as Enbrel.
I have Idiopathic TM and the doctors have never been able to find anything that
would have caused it. Prior to my getting TM I was healthy as a horse. No
medications, very active lifestyle, no flu or vaccinations.......nothing..
It just happened out of the blue, within a 2 hour time span I was paralyzed
from
the waist down. Lesion is L4, L5 and S1 which is the tailbone area.
