Randy,
So you are telling us that you have absolutely no symptoms and you feel
great?
If so, I am thrilled for you, but am wondering why you are on this website.
Janice

I had the "event" in 2005. - was told 'looks like early m s' and treated.
Told I probably would never use right leg again - told pt would not help.
Struggled to walk and pee for years - went for pt anyway (after 2nd
opioin) - given a "transverse mylophy" - ediopathic 'explantation' in 06.
Now, no symptoms, tests all perfect, and I am told that I don't have ms or
tm and they don't know what happened or why.

I was diagnosed with transverse myelitis in May 2009. My symptoms
developed over a few days and I was discharged from hospital after 6 weeks
with partial recovery in my right arm but have residual numbness and
tightness through most of my body. I have progressed to getting about
with a wheely walker and am wondering whether a Pilates class could be
beneficial. Another suggestion has been accupuncture. Once the initial
flurry of interest in me as an 'unusual' case had died down, I felt
abandoned and left to my own devices by the British National Health. Any
recommendations on the above would be welcome.
