Is this normal? There seems to be no support or indeed much understanding
of TM in England. Our Social Services don't offer much help with people who
have "temporary" paralysis so I'm even having problems getting a wheelchair
I have trouble walking for more than 20 minutes and sitting is a REAL pain
and this isn't improving.
Anyway I've rambled on long enough it would be great to hear from you
particularly anyone who know of any support/people in England.

Hi Joanne,
I hope you can find the support/people in England you want.You are more than
welcome on this TMIC list.We have lots of good people to answer questions and
lend support to you.The UK must be deficient in a lot of medical and social
aspects when dealing with not so common nuero disorders. I've heard that fact
mentioned many times.Now,it's not so hard for me, to believe it is so.Maybe,
combat the pain and mobility symptoms with back and leg strengthing exercises
and always maintain correct posture.Take care.
Best regards,
Phil
