I would venture to guess there are at least a couple of reasons. 1) Compared
to the "big" ones -- cancer, heart disease, etc.-- TM patients are in a
minority. 2) It was probably confused with MS or misdiagnosed for a long time,
and probably still is for many. And 3) the squeaky wheel gets the oil. Let's
squeak, folks!! Phil (Photo505(AT)aol.com) is still collecting letters from us
asking for research into TM to send out to those who can do something about
it.
