It started off swollen from an injury but it wasn't an injury that should have taken that long to heal. It was interesting re-reading my success story because it has been over 5 years now since my injury. I am happy to report that my knee still feels great and I am active as ever. My knee...

So this is totally unrelated to physical pain but it has been something that I have struggled with my entire adult life that I very much desire to overcome. And I am sure this issue has led to the TMS symptoms I have had in the past. I will warn you, it may be a long post. I don't post on here...

Good morning, I want to share my success story. I apologize if this ends up being long! My symptoms began in February of 2017. It all started with a sprained ankle. As I walking down some steps at work one day I stepped wrong and sprained my ankle and fell. At first I wasn't too concerned...

When was the last time you exercised or did another physical activity? What was this activity? How did it make you feel physically and emotionally? If it is has been a while since you last exercised, why? I have exercised and stretched regularly since my injury last February but not in the same...

I was just referred to this site from a post on facebook and so glad I found it! I fully accept that my recent issues are TMS related and I know I will overcome! A little history.... I am 44 years old. I am a PE teacher for kids with special needs and have been for 15 years. I have always...
