TM comes with the girdle belt free of charge. I had it for about a month and a half
after I came down with TM. I've never had herpes zoster?

DaveJ-
I did not know that "zoster" meant a "girdle, belt" etc. Never
looked it up. But that sure as heck explains the tight belt, girdle,
that has been around my lower body since I got TM. So now I wonder -
which came first, the chicken or the egg? Does herpes zoster cause TM
and leave the girdle or does TM come with a girdle all by itself where
there is no incidence of herpes zoster? Maybe together, we will all end
up writing some medical history here? (Smiley face!)
