Karlabgs, I am glad you got a quick diagnosis so treatment got started quickly as that makes the prognosis better according to our neurologist. Sounds like you are getting good care. They believe my husband's cause was probably the results of agent Orange. Hope you progress to a good recovery. I read on one of the medical sights ( Mayo, Johns Hopkins, Cleavage clinic) are my go to sights., that one third of the people with TM have a full recovery with time, hope your in that group.

Thanks for your input. I will definitely check out the other sites. I'm not completely sure about the TM diagnosis, even though the first neurologist said that's the issue, as the neuroimmunologist said she didn't see any inflammation. Hopefully the MRI next month will be more telling and may direct me to some meaningful treatment other than "wait and see." I so appreciate your kind thoughts and hope that in time your husband may recover.
