    The Last Symptom - How to Get Past It

    Hey Chessplyr, good way to think of it. Out of immediate control. I noticed when I get distracted a lot, I can even concentrate and feel my feet not tingling, but thinking too hard, it will come! It's definitely a conditioned response. I am thinking of other ways to handle this when sitting...

    LZ123, let me know about the book. Yes, you must accept it's TMS! If you don't accept it's TMS, you won't get past the pain.

    Returning TMS

    Hey Jeannyjay, I'm dealing with some nerve pain myself. So I'm still working on eliminating my pain, but I think maybe what has happened is you were pain free for a while but then you reached a critical point. Maybe there are too many things going on. You said stress in your life, but you need...
