I do not take this medication or any for TM except for my bowels that don't
function properly. But this is the info I have been given from my neuro
regarding TM and MS. He told me when I was diagnosed with TM that about 30%
of the patients will go on to deveolp M/S. He said he diagnosed a male with
TM, no white spots in his brain at that time and 7 years later had M/S.
I was diagnosed June 2005 with TM and now due to developing problems, I am
having a brain MRI next Fri to see if I have developed any more white spots
and started me on 1000mg sterods for 5 days and decreasing to 250mg for the
last 5 days. Naturally, my sugar has sky rocketed and now injection during
this use of steroids. At the time of TM diagnois, I had only 2 white
spots, which he assured me was good for a 55 year old person. As I saw
someone had already written a few days ago, he also told me to develop these
spots is natuaral progression as we age. Whatever! I take it one day at a
time.

Hi
My father's symptoms become worse and doctors say his TM may turn into
MS. He has no lesions in his brain.They prescriped Betafron/Betaseron. It
is a medicine for Ms. I want to know if any of you use this drug and do you
think is it possible without having lesions in brain one have MS?
