Re: [TMIC] hello out thereDalton, maybe you should start bugging your doctors again and see what else they could come up with. How can you have TM with no demyelination? Janice

I have also been tested for epilepsy and they didn't find any, but found pseudo-epilepsy-whatever that is. They did find "brainstem anomalies" in the MRI and the brainstem is the switching authority for the brain-body coordination. Then everyone lost interest. And that is as far as it has gone. I have a dr who keeps me in Lyrica prescriptions; but has no further interest in the case.

Every time I tried to talk I would cramp up. And Elvis was definitely being channeled in my body. Thank heavens I had the assistance of a very nice and strong maid who visits me once a week. It was her day to visit and she stayed with me and helped me to the bathroom and into and out of chairs. It was hard to sit down because I couldn't make my body bend and I'd just slide off. But we got it under control. She had to help me drink and eat. I would grab the coffee cup handle and then could not make my hand let go. In the mean time I was so grateful for her assistance and that the Lord was taking care of me that I was also as high as a kite and proposing marriage to chairs and such. Today was the beginning of the work week here (Abu Dhabi) and I did alright. But the lecture kept going off on these tangents making it hard for my class to take useful notes. It was because my mental state was still flying around the cosmos. What is going on here? OK, I have TM in my upper spine; but what is this mental derangement stuff? I sure wish the drs could find out what is wrong with me.

It's very good to hear this. I do think that it is a good idea to keep this list going though in case there are any newbies who may need us and don't think there is anyone here to listen to them. If a couple of days pass without any messages, let's send in a message or two. Hugs, Barbara A in Auburn CA
