I am hanging in. Went to New Hampshire a couple of weeks ago – first big
trip since TM almost 5 years ago. Was really nervous about it, but it went
quite well and we had a
lot of fun. I am glad you are in a condo – perfect for you and I would
imagine your wife is quite happy to have you home for keeps.

I am better;
No fits in 10 days and counting. I am finally in our new condo apartment in
Flushing, Queens, New York City. With not having to move around so much I am
looking forward to more time away from fits.
How are you doing?
Love,
Dalton

But;
What if we get the flu? What then? Maybe, it is as bad as the inoculation
in terms of the potential harm?
Everything is a benefit-cost situation. I fear getting sick because of
underlying conditions that might become so much worse that the risk associated
with the flu shot seems worth taking.

I was dx'ed with TM 7 1/2 years ago. My neurologist said it was most
likely from the flu shot I had received 4 months earlier. I had taken a flu
shot regularly every year for 20+ years without problems. Per my neurologist -
no immunizations of any kind (not even a tetanus shot from then on). My PCP
really does not agree but gives me a Rx for Tamiflu in case I am exposed to the
flu. So far no problems, but I am very careful during flu season & stay away
from crowds Friends & family know stay away if they have any kind of cold or
respiratoy infection.

when I got TM 7 years ago it was in Oct and I had atleast 6 dr.s ask over
and over if I had gotten a flu shot (i did NOT).. so that would tell me they
suspect a flu shot can cause TM without comming right out and saying so... in
the 7 years I have had TM, i have gotten the "flu" only once, kicked my butt
for 3 days but less price to pay them something else worse happening.. my two
cents don't do it

the neuro's who diagnosed my TM thought it may have been caused by a bout
of Shingles I had. Two years have passed and my wife is worrying I might get
another bout of shingles that would result in more TM damage. Should I get a
Shingles vaccine shot or is that risking another attack of TM? The shot is
$235.00 and we have been saing for it but now I am wondering what the risk is.
Please contribute your knowledge.
