in 2008 i was driving a truck,a tractor,i was having some trouble with my right leg,,wasnt just right but nothing so unusual that i really sought medical attention. after a few days my right foot felt as if my boot had gotten wet and the material up in the toe area was wadding up but i didnt remember getting my boots wet.then when i got out of the truck it felt like i was still in the truck,,the vibration of the moter running,,i even asked my wife if she felt anything buzzing the ground and i was real tired.
this went on a couple of weeks and then one morning i was in the shower and on my left side the hot water felt cold,,i was dizzy and sort of disoriented,,i turned the cold water on and it felt hot on my left side. after the shower i started downstairs and it felt like the steps were moving away from my feet,,on my right side i was numb from the top of my head to the bottom of my feet....thought it was time to go to the Dr,,and this was the beginning of my wonderful journey. i have had little improvement but changes are the numbness has turned to pain,mainly in my right side and both legs,,and the burning and buzzing.. so much for a short paragraph... ;) ________________________________ From: Dalton Garis <malugss...@me.com> To: heyjude48...@aol.com; tmic-list@eskimo.com Sent: Saturday, April 27, 2013 8:45 AM Subject: Re: [TMIC] Re: Transverse Myelitis I'm in; Very useful, both for the reader and the writer.

It's Jude Hoops. I was just reading the quad list and they are talking about their injuries at what level they are injured, how it happened and when it happened. Do you think that that would be something we could do too? I think it might be interesting to know how we were all injured or got sick and how long ago it was. We've all been on this list for a long time now and I was wondering whether any of us had gotten any better over the years. Let me know what you think. Just write a small paragraph about how you came to have TM, what level your injury is at and if you have seen any improvement over the years. I love you all so much and have been thinking of you. Hugs, Jude (TIAD)
