HELLO EVERYBODY, My TM started with a tingle in my legs that wouldn't go away.
I tried to walk it off, but no go. I was transported to a hospital where I was
examined by a knowledgeable doctor who reconized TM. A MRI confermed his
diagnosis. I have never had pain from TM. I am semi paralized from my waist
down. Left side completely, dight side partialy. This started on June 39, 1999

Hello Alton and All,
Mine onset was more than short term...I had gotten up in the morning,
showered, did my hair and make-up, felt great...got dressed, buttoned the first
button on my shirt and before I could get to the second one, I was on the floor
in the most excruciating pain I had ever had. I made it to the bed and within
five minutes I was paralyzed from the tips of my toes to my armpits.
The pain was so bad that with every heartbeat I swear that bright red bolts
of lightening were shooting out of my eyes. I know they really weren't, but it
sure felt like it.
That was five years ago and nothing has changed.
Peace and Prayers,
Jude
