Hi Sal, My son got married one month to the day that I got TM. I'm very thankful that I got it 'after' the wedding and not before or on the day as it could have been terrible. There was a lot of stress and busy busy times as there were 370 guests. We had tons of family here from out of town. Then at the wedding rehearsal the ring bearer had a terrible cold, passed it on to my hubby. Then I got it but mine only lasted a couple of days.
Once all our company left and I was back to work for about 10 days we had a long weekend and were just getting into relax mode. My TM hit me on the Saturday morning of the long weekend. Started with low back pain that I thought was just my same old pain that I had had for years from herniated disc in 1990, a car accident (head on t-bone) in 1991, another car accident where I was rear ended in 1994. So that is my little story.

I know that we all have adapted to it and forgot about it but instead of having doctors and researchers find the reason why, whats a better source then the person who actually got it..What I am getting at is that i wanted everyone on the list to recall what they did 1 month to a year before their illness...ex: vacation, car accident...just something that you think would trigger it...I was in a car accident 8 months before my onset...also i was eating a lot of fast food and red meat....just even if you dont think it was it just put it down...it may not make a difference for us as it has already happened but what if we can prevent it for our future generations? ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Never miss a thing.
