this concerns my wife Ruth,diagnosed Jan 95.Numbness started in the feet
working up to the breast in a period of days.MRI showed discolorization around
t4. Drug baclofen tried but no noticeable difference. Some days the numbness
is worse than others,all motor activities working okay. A period of exercise
strengthened the legs but did nothing for the discomfort. Tight girdle effect
in the anbdomen. Questions--Can attacks reoccur? Is activity{exercise]
recommended over rest?What drugs are being used and how successfully? I am on
4-Novo-larazen daily pls taking Alfalfa/ginsing tonic. Energy levels appear to
be getting longer.Any other persons from Canada receiving this imformation? ps
Ruth was 62 when diagnosed.
