I am sorry it took TM to find us. I too have Idiopathic TM. I was DX in June of 2008. I was in the hospital for 5 weeks and was given Prednisone with there and was sent home with a script of oral prednisone to start weaning. The TM affected my legs and of course the bladder and bowels. I had PT while there and then continued when I got home. I have since progressed to where I am able to get around the house with walker/cane, but do need a walker to my electric scooter when I go to any activity that requires a lot of walking. This group is also for the spouses or care givers. There are no questions that you cannot ask. We are all here for you and your hubby. Take care and give our best to your hubby.

He was treated at Pennsylvania Hospital under the care of a team of Neurologists. He was given mega doses of Prednisone and is currently weaning with oral prednisone. He was discharged from the hospital last Thursday and he is now working hard at an acute rehabilitation center (3-5 hours each day). He has a very positive outlook and is ³taking it one day at a time². My question is thisis there a support group for spouses of TM? Emily Life is not measured by the number of breaths that we take but by the moments that take our breath away.
