Guest guest Posted September 7, 2004 Report Share Posted September 7, 2004 Hi Raven, This is great -- if pain ever can be. Another path to follow about this pain. I will look for information on the net about JMS, all these diagnoses tho are so unique to the sufferers. Thank you so very much. About when I first started experiencing this... I don't remember anything different. Certainly not a change in meds. Oh I know what was going on, and this may sound strange but during the last year my life emotionally has turned around. I grew up with emotional disorders/depression and they were the first reasons for my disability approval. Then as I healed emotionally, my body let go of holding itself together. Anyway, emotionally I have truly arrived at a place of happiness and peace and I was just acknowledging that when the worst pain started. Ah Freudian isn't it. I look forward to your comments, and anyone else's, if they found similar experiences along their path's. Warmly, Jean ===== Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted September 25, 2004 Report Share Posted September 25, 2004 Hi, Raven, since you wrote to me about these seizures (re my arm and unexplained cramps), I have been attempting to do research on the JMS. I finally got to the library this morning. No one has heard of these, can you tell me more or direct me to a site? Thank you. Warmly, Jeannie ===== Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted September 25, 2004 Report Share Posted September 25, 2004 Jeannie, 2nd source has nothing. That leave my BIL, who's been a Dr. for 30 years. I can ask him if you would like. Just let me know. Dix Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted September 27, 2004 Report Share Posted September 27, 2004 Hey Jeannie... Try looking up info under " simple partial motor seizures " (or " simple partial motor type seizures " , or even " partial seizures. " ). This is the general class under which JMS is classified. The name JMS is actually an old name that's undergone significant renovation in the past 3 years (it's now being investigated as it pertains to Cerebral Palsy). It simply refers to the ian neural matrix, which was hypothesized as the source for the tremors in the arm. So because it's so specialized, you probably won't find much on it (I know I haven't over the years). But looking up the general class will likely yield more info (I've found info in neurology text books and articles at my local med school library). It also may be more pertinent to you as slight damage to several different areas of the brain can lead to arm tremors. Sorry I don't have more info for you, I wish I did (for the both of us LoL)...
