Amy Glad to hear you are doing much better. Is what you had similar to what I had in the hospital where I had a UTI infection, but, of course, I didn’t feel it. Then it went systemic and I nearly died too. No fun. Janice

Or heard from her. This is Amy Shultz. I had a really bad summer up till Oct 31st when I almost died. The doctors said my body took a big hit. I had severe sepsis and septic shock. Since my hair is falling out really bad and nails are splitting and peeling and breaking. Real fragile. I even take 6000mcg of Biotin a day and have for a couple years. So IDK what's going on.

I haven't had any changes in my TM, but I do have an interesting story about a suspected relapse. In December, 2013, I thought I had a TM relapse or a stroke and went to ER walking and talking as if I was in a drunken stupor. CT, MRI's, and Labs showed nothing new had happened and I recovered fine. My doctors and I were stumped. In December 2014, I woke up one morning feeling my "TM normal" with the start of a cold. I went thru my routine of meds, reading, and coffee. I had difficulty standing up, my walking was bad and felt drunk when I started for another cup of coffee. I again wondered if I was having a TM relapse. I sat and compared the two "relapses". I didn't want to go thru another 36 hour observation in ER. I felt and walked and talked as if drunk both times. I had the start of a cold both times. I had taken cough syrup both times, but the bottle was almost empty so it couldn't be that. I didn't have a relapse at all. I had a reaction to taking a full dose of cough syrup with Dextromethorphan and my TM meds Lyrica and Baclofen - on an empty stomach. What a relief! I saw my PCP yesterday for my RX renewals and I think she was as relieved as I was. That means no TM relapses in 11 years. Praise the Lord!
