Hi Mommaw. Welcome to NeuroTalk. This is a very caring and supportive community.

I don't know anything about transverse mylitis, but I did do a search for it on these forums. The only mention I found of it is in the Peripheral Neuropathy forum so I am going to direct you to that. Here is the link. http://neurotalk.psychcentral.com/forumdisplay.php?f=20

I'm so sorry to hear about your problems. Just hearing about the prednisone makes me shudder! I have taken that many times, and the first time I had to be on it for over a year (for my ulcerative colitis). It was hard to taper off of it because as soon as I'd get to a low dose the colitis would start to flare.

Anyway, I'm so glad you found us.
