My Story
My first TMS occurrence happened 17 years ago. It was a total body pain scenario. After many many doctor's visits, MRIs, drugs, braces etc. I finally found Dr. Sarno, began a meditation practice, changed parts of my life to manage stress, met with a Psychologist, and pain disappeared. Three times since then the TMS has come back. Surprisingly, each time the pain has hit a different part of my body and for about 6 months I'm fooled into thinking its a really injury (I do a lot of intense working out). Then when I do remember I have TMS I'm able to resolve it. Except now I'm being challenged. My current TMS started about 11 months ago in my glutes/SI joint. For about 6 months I figured it was due to golf/working out and went to PT. Bad idea. They convinced me I need to be careful, walk different, do specific exercises, not strain myself. The pain got worse. I finally re-read Sarno, Hanscom, Siegel (all my favorite books) and immediately started to get better. Although this time around the pain is being very stubborn. I'm starting to panic a bit, which is weird because I really believe strongly in TMS. For some reason, the process is working more slowly this time. - Loading...
