Hi Erika, and nice to hear from you. You are way up in Quesnel, eh? Did you have a look at the other thread that is going on TM ... it's an old one that Lucylu resurrected recently? Lefthanded had mentioned he had stomach/intestinal/bowel issues (Ulcerative Colitis and/or Crohns), and I too have UC. Now you are mentioning it as well ... Do you find that infections of any kind will set things off for you? Has your neuro contemplated sending away for NMO testing out of Mayo. As I mentioned in the other thread, I opted out of the testing, since it won't change my approach anyway. I had ON with the last two TM attacks, which kinda makes sense because the inflammation was in my upper C spine and brainstem. I have not had bi-lateral ON though, which is more indicative of NMO. Both of my severe TM attacks were reasonably typical and predictable, with numbness in most of my body as well as all the other fun symptoms. ![]() Cherie
