Hi Janice, it's Linda

The water temperature is HOT on my entire left side, but feels just barely 
"warm" on my right side.  Let's hope it's warm, anyway.  It's been 7 years for 
me and that hasn't changed. And yes, please be very very careful when taking 
showers.  I'm sure others will pop in with comments. Hopefully that weird 
sensation has gone away for most.  

I'm not quite sure what you mean by "buzzing" - do you mean you no longer have 
"burning sensation" in your legs?  I still deal with the burning, tingling in 
my feet and legs, but it has gotten better.  I notice that it gets much worse 
when I have exceeded my limits for the day.  Which doesn't take much

That's great that you have one improvement!!  You'll probably continue to see 
more improvements as time goes by.

take care,
Linda (Idaho)

  This is Janice - yet again with another question.   

  It has been 2 years since the onset of TM.   From the top of my ribs to my 
toes I can not tell water temperature on my skin.  I have to be very careful 
with taking my showers.    Do any of you have that?   I am wondering if it is 
something that will eventually go away or if it is something I will live with.

  Also, one improvement I have just noticed lately is the constant "buzzing" 
that I had in my legs as soon as feeling started coming back.   Did you all 
have that and have any of you also lost it?

  Thanks again, Janice
