Hi Steven,
It's the one year anniversary of my TM attack and I was affected at
C4-C5. I guess it would qualify as a semi acute attack as my symptoms
developed slowly and I never lost mobility or even urinary/bowel
control though it does take more effort these days, what I did develop
was neuropathic pain from the chest down: feels like I'm being
electrocuted 24/7. My pain has never improved and is not likely to and
my balance is poor.
To avoid burning sensation I have given up all soda and limit juice to
a small cup a day. I find I can handle coffee if I drink a lot of
water. I also take vitamin C at night to acidify the urine and reduce
my chances of developing an infection. Hope this helps......
