Sherry, Jan H here. Welcome to the group!
Sorry you need us but glad you can add your
experiences to ours. This is a very useful
place to be when you have questions about
what's going with your body.
I bet you were really scared when your dr
told you that TM was rearing it's ugly head
again! I've had a time or two that I felt I was
regressing but resting has taken me back to
my level of recovery. I think that the orders
from my drs to listen to my body and not to
overdo were very important!! I try very hard to
take my ease as necessary even tho' it isn't
my 'old way' of doing things!!
You mention that your dr told you that the flu
antibodies were the cause of TM for you--my dr
said that the pneumonia I had prior to TM was
the cause of my TM, only added that my immune
system was already compromised from another
health problem which allowed the pneumonia anti-
bodies to attack.
Anyway, glad to get to know you. Hope that your
symptoms are gone now. Take care of yourself--it
sounds like you have your hands full with little ones
dependent on you. Remember to rest and keep a
positive attitude and life will be good.
