I am sorry you have been unable to find information on the correlations
between TM and vaccinations. I have been reading this list for a year now
and have seen this debate before, and I almost slipped into it myself! Jeff,
all I can say is the info. is out there. In fact, I just did a quick search
using the word "myelitis" and found several articles and sites discussing the
possible correlation. I am not trying to convince you or anyone else - I am
just sharing my thoughts and experiences on this list. This list is my
chance to understand what others and I are going through - and it helps. I
think a debate on this issue would be fruitless and a misuse of this
opportunity to provide support, not conflict, to the others on the list.
Yes, I was offended when you refered to us who propose a correlation between
TM and the flu-vaccine as contributors to "mass-hysteria". I have come to my
conclusion as a result of my own personal experience and pursuit of medical
knowledge, and I have never tried to convince others of my opinions. I just
tell them what I "think" I know. I respect your opinion, and you may be
correct. The most logical answer is TM has several causes or precipitators,
regardless of the cause, we are all in it together and I am happy we are here
to help each other! I wish you all the best as you attempt to cope with and
understand TM.
