What Is Transverse Myelitis?

Transverse myelitis is the inflammation of the spinal cord and may occur as a result of a vaccination. The source and type of vaccination are often disputed—it may be linked to a reaction to the flu vaccine or hepatitis B, as well as other types of vaccinations. It is a serious life threatening illness.

Transverse myelitis affects the body in the following ways:

• The spinal cord becomes inflamed and damages myelin, which offers protection for the nerve fibers.
• When nerve fibers become damaged, the signals from the brain become disrupted.
• The patient begins experiencing the symptoms, including muscle weakness, inability to walk and then paralysis. Paralysis may affect both hands and feet. Hospitalization is necessary.

Other symptoms of transverse myelitis:

• Lower back pain
• Abnormal or no feeling in the toes and feet • Loss of bowel control or movement
• Urinary retention
• Loss of ability to control hands of feet
• paralysis

Patients may obtain compensation for transverse myelitis from The National Vaccine Injury Compensation Program (VICP). This is a government-run program that provides individuals financial compensation after being injured due to certain vaccines. Proving a vaccine caused an illness is complicated. That is why it is so important to have a knowledgeable and trusted transverse myelitis lawyer on your side.
