Re: [TMIC] Re: TM & Reflexes

Gunny,

My thanks to you and to Dr. Kerr!  This answers my question which was:  
Do poor reflexes mean
you don't have TM, which is what an ill-informed doctor told me.

Take care,
Kevin

Ok, I talked to him and he said poor reflexes can be construed to be a part of 
TM as well as hyper reflexes. The only real way to tell is a lumbar puncture, 
then they have to measure the IL6 protein level. If they're elevated, then it's 
a true diagnosis.

Gunny,

Dr. Kerr's opinion on whether lack of reflexes can be part
of TM.  I had a doctor tell me that poor reflexes meant I
don't have TM.

Was I supposed to talk to Doug about you, I forgot. And, if so, what did you 
need to know?

Natalie,

I've been taking 81mg of Bayer Enteric Coated aspirin for a long time.  
Recently a doctor on Oprah  said that it is now
recommended to take TWO of the small dose.  I have to ask my doctor 
about this.

Hi Frank,
Do you take the regular dose aspirin or the smaller dose some 
recommend for heart prevention. That always has me confused, which to 
take. Thanks
Natalie

    Carol,

    I take B6 during the summer.  It keeps the mosquitos away.  I also
    take folic acid which may be needed to keep the bugs away.  I take
    Folic acid to lower my homocystine level and keep me from having
    heart attacks and strokes, that is why I take Aspirin too.

    My pain is not affected by the B6.

    Hope this helps
