    Hello, I am new here just finished Dr Sarno's book and I wish I had read it 20 years ago. My story began when I was 23 with IBS-lost 30 lbs before leaving the bad relationship I was in and it clearing up. Then I was hit with panic attacks with depression solved with medication. Next came a feeling of a lump in my throat all the time. This cleared when I saw a specialist who said there was nothing wrong with my throat and was related to stress. Next: chest pains at 29 y/o, lasted for several months , cleared after seeing dr and tests--nothing wrong. Then ulcer symptoms-same story. Migraine headaches. My present problem started 15 years ago with neck and shoulder pain which has no increased to mid-back and low back pain that has never gone away and I'm now dependent/addicted to strong pain meds. I am convinced that all these symptoms are TMS. My problem is convincing my subconcious of this. I'm on day 3 of the structued program. I want my life back!!!
