Hello Costas.
I had my first symptoms of TM five years ago today with paralyses setting in
four days later and then I was hospitalized for five months as an inpatient
and attended a day rehabilitation hospital three days per week for the next
seven months. After that I attended a gymnasium at least three days per
week and used any piece of equipment I could get onto. Also attended a
heated hydrotherapy pool for many sessions and this also helped. I have
had a couple of set backs since I was able to learn to walk again when I was
discharged from inpatient care and I still use two walking canes to get
about and still see some improvements such as being able to do things again
that I have had difficulty since TM.
Just keep on trying all the time and progress and improvement seems to
happen.

Regards from Errol, Narangba, Queensland, Australia.
