In everything I have read on TM and the problems that go with it, I would say
you are right when you say we are compromised with our immune systems. Hope
you get to where you
will not need the bipap machine for long.

I was in ICU last December for two weeks with I very serious lung infection
that required antibiotics into my bloodstream with a pic line and with
incubation and feeding tubes. The doctors told me they could not tell if the
infection began in my lungs or my bladder. I now have to use a bipap machine
when I sleep. Still don't know if it was related my TM but my guess is the TM
has compromised my entire immune system. I had an entire regiment of specialist
including pulmonologist, neurologist, internist, radiologist,
gastroenterologist, and probably others that I forgot. Anyway I was a pretty
sick guy but they got me fixed......Cody in Austin

My daughter has lung issues second to tm but it is due to her level of loss
which causes lung issues and weakness which results in her scarring etc
Make sense?

i would wonder about it in that the nervous system can effect the
lungs,,,like Jim,,,so perhaps the spasms or whatever happens to those that have
the lung troubhle just may have scar tissue,,but i would think that it would be
to those that are using a ventilator

insist that tm can leave scar tissue and cause inflamation of the lungs,in all
the research ive done over the last 13 years i have never heard of this,am i
wrong?
