  • My Story

    Four years ago, I had a minor procedure which resulted in my first major sign of TMS. Took me a month to discover this. With the help of Dr(s) Schubiner, Schecter, Gordon & Hanscom, I was able to work on the real issues. It took 18 months of ups & downs, but I am now in a much better place, enjoying life to its fullest. Also, had an onset of tinnitus October 2016. A few months were really bad, but in a much better place now.

    I did not think that was possible in June 2014. I thought my life was doomed to pain and despair after seeing over 20 medical doctors, in a 4 month period, with several wanting to do major surgical procedures, unnecessarily. Not one could give me a straight answer.

    Stay with it, it is not a linear journey, but one filled with joy and despair.

    In the long run, it is a continuous journey.

        Hey man, I am so happy you're still feeling great! You give me hope. Would you mind doing everybody a favor and sharing your success story on the success story section of this forum? I think you would help a lot of people and give some of us hope, for I am struggling at the moment.
