It is extremely painful. It goes down to the nerve and can stay quite a
while. Talk to your doc about getting one!

I didn't know there was a shot for shingles. My mother had them before she got
cancer. From the way she described it, they were painful and itchy.

For me, I do not believe it was stress that created TM. It struck at a
great time for us. We were getting ready to travel, etc., after my husband
had been retired for 4 months and really looking
forward to our new future. At 4 months of retirement, you-know-who struck
and totally changed our lives. I had had a flu shot - but that was 3-4
months before TM. I had not been sick at
all for a long time before TM either. I think it is like MS or any other
disease like that - it hits when it hits.
For the first 2 years after TM struck, my doc did not want me to get a flu
shot. But now I get one yearly and he wants me too. Have also had a
shingles shot and pnuemonia shot. No problems.

There is a ton of information and personal stories,pictures etc at the
T.M.I.C. Internet Club. The reason I like this site is that we talk about TM
and the medicines and conditiions we have. I am not looking to make friends
(although that is a plus). I just want to share information that may help us
cope with this awful condition. As for me I have always believed that the cause
of my TM was excess stress which probably caused my immune system to overreact
to some minor illness like a summer cold.....that being said no doctor can say
what caused any of us to have TM....I myself decided it was stress....everyone
one of us thinks he knows the cause of TM ...but none of us do!
All the best and happy to see this site in action once again!

Thanks Iris, I am so happy you are writing. I am really punishing myself to
find topics for us to talk about. What can you think of that is pertinent toTM?
Love you,
Jude

Hi Jude
I've always wondered if I somehow snuk in under the radar of TMIC. When I
was diagnosed with TM 3 1/2 yrs ago it was all new and very frightening and I
had very little help or info from the doctors. While looking for help on the
Internet, I was lucky enough to find the group and finally began to understand
what had happened but, like most us, not why it had happened! So, thanks for
taking on board what seems to be a lone voice from the UK and for all the kind
words of encouragement and advice. Just to be sure I am a "proper" member, my
