Steve, please don't apologize for asking! I think we are all on this list to
learn.
I have talked to my neurologist a lot about MS. As far as I know up to this
point, he does not think it is MS at all. MS was always a fear of mine.
Why....rather than TM....I'm not sure. Actually, he always told me that MS
would actually be better. With MS, there is a chance of a long remission.
With TM, there is not.
My next appointment is the beginning of April. Believe me, this will, again,
be one of my first questions.
Your doctor said 50% chance of developing it from TM. Any ideas as to how
long after diagnosing TM that MS might develop.
Would be very interesting in anyone that has also been told they could
develop MS from TM.

Thank you.
Linda
