Joe - I'm sorry I am reading all this late. I do hope you are OK and feeling better.

Although they have never diagnosed me with TM, I have those spinal lesions that do the same thing. Cherie is correct in how things work with these dang things and provided you with some awesome information and advice.

I recently, in April, had a bad flare of a spinal lesion causing all sorts of chaos from the t-spine down. I was down, in bed, unable to move for about 4 or 5 days. Those were the worse and most painful. Slowly things start to return to my new normal. All in all it took about 8 weeks for things to settle down. However, the "crisis" time was about a couple of weeks.

Saying some prayers for you that you are starting to feel better.
