TM does the damage at the cord level, so how is transferring nerves from one leg to another going to help? Any of you got an idea as to this, especially medically trained persons.... I was a paramedic training to be an RN, and I cannot see how this is a fix for TM. The only way a nerve transplant would work was if the girl had Gulliame Barre' and the myelin from that nerve was destroyed; then replacing it might work. But for TM, I don't see or understand it. The article said very little as to how the doctors came to this conclusion.
