    My pain

    Thank you all for your comments

    My pain

    My main symptom is nerve pain in my arms; it cannot be felt on the skin, but rather feels as if my brain is amplifying the normal signal of the nerve that runs through the entire arm. I can move my arms, but the specific spot where the pain does feel like it could be mechanical is in the elbow...

    Post traumatic clitoral nerve sensitisation

    "Congratulations! Coffee. Exposing ourselves to what scares us, despite the pain or discomfort, basically shows your brain that the area is safe. Because of that, your sensitivity has gone down and your symptom has become intermittent. That's exactly how you retrain a fearful brain. Wishing you...

    Post traumatic clitoral nerve sensitisation

    "The exact same thing happened to me with doctors. They even sent me to psychiatry, as if I were somatizing this pain myself. I think I would have believed it if it had been a headache or stomach pain, but for it to be nerve pain inside my elbows seemed completely ridiculous to me. I know...

    Post traumatic clitoral nerve sensitisation

    Lo más probable es que tu lesión inicial no fuera la verdadera causa de tu síndrome de dolor miofascial (SDM). La única forma de que los síntomas se perpetúen es a través del estado emocional con el que reaccionaste a ellos, o debido a problemas emocionales que ya estabas experimentando antes y...

    Post traumatic clitoral nerve sensitisation

    Yes, it is very likely TMS, especially if your tests keep coming back clear. My brain did the exact same thing to me. In my case, it fixated on the ulnar nerves inside my elbows, created a pathway there, and I started feeling nerve pain, like the shock of an exposed nerve. Fear kicked in, and...

    Good info on extinction bursts and plateaus

    "Hello, yes, I am from Peru. Thank you for sharing your book with me. I am going to purchase it right now. I am very interested in your recovery process, since we coincide in many symptoms and also the location. In addition, I have also experienced the appearance of highly strange symptoms. And...

    Good info on extinction bursts and plateaus

    Esta publicación es increíble porque aclara enormemente cómo es realmente el proceso de recuperación en muchos casos. Era justo lo que necesitaba en este momento: mi síntoma principal se ha extendido un poco más y han aparecido algunas molestias nuevas, pero al mismo tiempo, otros síntomas...

    TMS?

    Hola, bienvenido/a. Es muy frustrante tener que someterse a tantas pruebas para que al final no puedan determinar qué te pasa. A mí me pasó lo mismo: me eché a llorar al saber que los médicos no podían ayudarme. También siento ardor en las piernas, que es difuso y varía de un día para otro. Es...

    Burning skin

    "Hi, I would really appreciate it if you could tell me how you practiced somatic tracking. I mean in your day-to-day life: did you do it at any time, and for how long? They say it’s not recommended for high levels of pain—not because it doesn't work, but because many people find it hard to stay...

    Burning skin

    "Hi, how are you? I've read many stories with symptoms similar to yours, and what they basically said was: ignore the symptoms, don't give them any emotion, and move on with your day. This can work for many people, I don't doubt it, but when you have pain at the level you're telling me about, I...

    Numbness, tingling, electric shocks, paresthesia, allydonia, small fiber neuropathy

    Hola, me alegra mucho saber que te has recuperado por completo; me das un rayo de esperanza. Incluso antes de esto, siempre venía a leer tu historia cuando me sentía desanimada por mi situación. Tuviste muchas de las molestias físicas que tengo ahora: sensaciones corporales erráticas, hormigueo...

    God I’m miserable

    "Alright, Many. I don't think it would be a good idea to expose yourself to a level 2 noise and then go straight to a level 10. Ideally, it should be progressive. Start with softer noises and then, little by little, increase the intensity of those sounds. Maybe you could, I don't know, get a...
