  • The Transverse Myelitis Association (TMA) was established in 1994 as an organization dedicated to advocacy for those who have Transverse Myelitis. It was incorporated as a not-for-profit organization in the State of Washington and obtained a 501(c)(3) status from the U.S. Internal Revenue Service in 1996.
  • In 2003 the TMA's mission was expanded to advocate for neuroimmunologic disorders of the central nervous system, which include: transverse myelitis; recurrent transverse myelitis; recurrent transverse myelitis and recurrent optic neuritis or Devics Disease; recurrent optic neuritis; and acute disseminating encephalomyelitis or ADEM.
  • The Transverse Myelitis Association facilitates support and networking opportunities amongst TM families; provides educational information; functions as a clearinghouse for articles and research literature about the TM diagnosis; and investigates, advocates for and supports research and innovative treatment efforts.

I agree, I just wonder if maybe the diet makes the flare ups better, longer in between. And, I wonder if it aleviates some symptoms to where they are not gone, but are better. I don't know just thoughts.

Hi Again... A couple of small changes regarding the raffles.... One, we just got word from the ticker printer that they are running behind, so we had to extend the raffle end date until December 15th 2009. Two, we are also adding PayPal as a pa...

Hello, Although I sincerely believe tha the MS Recovery Diet is excellent for maintaining overall health, if it were a quick fix we wouldn't have anyone suffering from demyelinating disease. Grace (NMO since 2005)
