Re: [TMIC] Rick back on list.
I am still here. Not a lot of talk on this site anymore, I think most use Facebook. I am now going on 8 1/2 years with TM I guess I am as good as I'm going to be. My neurologist said last December that he no longer needs to see me unless their is a problem. I am just followed by my PCP, but she is very good. I haven't heard anything from or about Jude in a long time. I haven't heard about anything new to try - wish there was. I developed a bad tremor in my right hand(of course I am right handed) after 3years with TM the numbness in my hands can be really bad, but I manage as best I can. Glad to see some talk on this site.

Re: [TMIC] Rick back on list.
I am here too. I know most of us are on facebook, but I miss many who are only on this site. I have not heard from Jude for quite some time even though I do send her messages. I think of her so often and wish we would hear from her or Dave. Patti in Wisconsin On Fri, Jul 13, 2012 at 10:42 AM, Linda Egli le...@sbcglobal.net wrote: I am still here.

RE: [TMIC] Rick back on list.
Hi Rick and Linda ~ I am still here also. This is where the support all began for me 10 years ago. I know there are TMers on FB, but there are a lot of people from this group that I haven't seen anywhere for quite some time. Miss everybody. Rick I'm so sorry about your insurance. I still have insurance (and Medicare) and my out-of-pocket expenses scare me! Had to laugh ~when you mentioned a certain name and said your e-mail will once again be monitored constantly. lol I think we all are to a certain extent anyway. There is no such thing as privacy anymore, in my opinion.Linda, this tremor and numbness in your hands - are your lesions up high - in your C spine?I'm also glad to see some action on this site. I know Janice is still here - maybe she'll stop by soon.Take care you guys,Linda C (Boise, ID) Date: Fri, 13 Jul 2012 08:42:13 -0700 From: le...@sbcglobal.net Subject: Re: [TMIC] Rick back on list.

Re: [TMIC] Rick back on list.
My welcome back to Rick, also. It's good to hear from you, Linda, and all. My lesion in C2-C4 and I have numbness in my hands, tremors occasionally, and sometimes even muscle spasm type seizures. They are very disconcerting, but usually are stopped by muscle relaxants. I have had TM for 18 years and another autoimmune disorder that attacked peripheral nerves that came on about 2 years ago. I now take azathioprine, which is an immune system suppressant. Well, my best to everyone. - Roger in Kennewick, WA From: Linda Cherpeski cherp...@msn.com To: le...@sbcglobal.net; el...@att.net Cc: TM List tmic-list@eskimo.com Sent: Friday, July 13, 2012 3:05 PM Subject: RE: [TMIC] Rick back on list.
