Thanks Grace. I've been away from the TM community too long. No MRI has shown any lesions on my spine but my neuro told me he still thought I had a hidden spinal lesion.

I have Devic's NMO, and have frequent bouts of severe myelitis. We have to remember that the term Transverse Myelitis means just what it says. Transverse---transversing, or across, Myelitis---inflammation of the spinal cord. It can be caused by a variety of illnesses but is also often idiopathic. (No known cause.)
