Thanks for the tips. I have been able to keep to my usual activities despite the foot symptoms. Now I have back symptoms for the first time in my life. My back has never been symptomatic before and I’ve done nothing to it that would result in these symptoms. I am sure this is TMS.

Hello I’ve been struggling with foot pain off and on for about a year. The symptoms are textbook plantar fasciitis: heel pain, painful first morning steps, etc. I’m wondering if anyone has had plantar fasciitis inflammation diagnosed on ultrasound and still treated it successfully as TMS.

Hello @Mr Hip Guy We have talked about running before, and I came on here today to post about some of my own running issues, and saw your post. It was interesting reading because I am newly interested in trail running over the roads (seems like more fun, as you point out). One thing I find...

I have completed two marathons but signed up for many more only to be derailed by running injuries midway through the training. In the two I finished I had much less pressure on myself to meet certain goals/times/performances. The pressure and perfectionism that goes along with the training may...

That may certainly be part of it. There is pressure and stress associated with the events, for sure, even though I do enjoy doing them. And I also enjoy running and being in shape when it doesn’t hurt! My suspicion is rather high that this latest hip issue is a structural issue, possibly a...

Hello, I've been reading some posts on here about TMS and running/sports injuries. They've been helpful and I'm wondering if anyone has had a similar experience as what I've had the past few years, which is TMS seemingly waiting until you think you're over it--and happy about being over it--to...
