What Is Transverse Myelitis (TM) and Can it be Triggered by a Vaccine Shot?

Transverse myelitis is a neurological disorder involving inflammation across the spinal cord. Attacks of inflammation can damage or destroy myelin, the fatty insulating substance that covers nerve cell fibers. This damage causes nervous system scars that interrupt communications between the nerves in the spinal cord and the rest of the body. Transverse Myelitis is an autoimmune disorder meaning that that body's immune system has gone haywire. Vaccination, in addition to viral and bacterial infections, has been found to trigger transverse myelitis.

Symptoms of Transverse Myelitis

Symptoms of transverse myelitis include a loss of spinal cord function over several hours to several weeks. What usually begins as a sudden onset of lower back pain, muscle weakness, or abnormal sensations in the toes and feet can rapidly progress to more severe symptoms, including paralysis, urinary retention, and loss of bowel control.

Prognosis of Transverse Myelitis Triggered by Vaccine

Although some patients recover from transverse myelitis with minor or no residual problems, others suffer permanent impairments that affect their ability to perform ordinary tasks of daily living. Most patients will have only one episode of transverse myelitis, however a small percentage may have a recurrence.

Compensation for Transverse Myelitis Triggered by Vaccine

Maglio Christopher & Toale, P.A. has represented a number of patients that have obtained compensation for injuries resulting from transverse myelitis following vaccination. Involved vaccines include the flu vaccine, Hepatitis B vaccine, Tetanus vaccine, and Measles Mumps and Rubella (MMR) vaccine.
