Thanks. I know there are a few of us . . . but how many I am not sure.
I had an idiopathic myelitis attack in June 2010 with 5 spinal lesions. My neuro told me to try and forget about it, likely a one time occurence. I feel like the luckiest person alive, my pelvis was completely paralyzed, I was on a catheter for 3 weeks, I couldn't stand for more than a few seconds, but I survived it with only mild symptoms remaining.

Does anyone know if myelitis is transverse myelitis? My official diagnosis was myelitis, but I don't understand the difference.
