Brendan537 I am sorry to hear of your rough upbringing. All of your symptoms are definitely textbook TMS. You are young with a whole lifetime ahead of you.I am Happy that you discovered Dr. Sarno now and not 30 years down the road. The fact that we know what is ailing us is half the battle...

Brendan537 I am so sorry to hear about your Mother. Losing a loved one is one of the toughest things to go through. My sister passed away 3 years ago, my back pain began shortly after. Thank you for sharing this, its comforting to know others have the same symptoms without any injury. Its also...

I recovered from a year of back pain hell last year from reading Dr Sarno's (and others) books and from the wealth of info and wonderful support I got here. Had surgery 3 weeks ago and went into surgical menopause (no hotflashes or other symptoms). A week after my surgery my TMS attacked my...

Thank you so much for your reply. I have been able to relax and the pain is easing. Moving but easing. Its so difficult when the pain is that intense. I appreciate your response Thank you again.

Hi Calilady13. I am going through the exact same spasms as you and it is horrible. Only sort of comfortable position I can get in is sitting. Lying down for me....BAD, then I spasm when I try to move or get up. Mine were so bad last night I woke up after midnight screaming and screaming until I...

Hello I am back here after a year of being cured. Pain Free. I have my life back and enjoying every minute of it. I have been shouting it from the rooftops and telling anyone who will listen. Anyone I meet with chronic pain I tell them all about Dr Sarno's books and TMS. I have helped others...

Thank you everyone. Had a bad night, every time I tried to get out of bed and walk my back went into horrible spasms. I could barely take a step. Now I have searing pain in my kneecap. Hello TMS! TennisTom, embarrassed to say I've read it online...I know, you cant believe all that you read...

Hello I spent a year of my life with disabling back pain (bedridden for most the year) then discovered Dr Sarno, who gave me back my life as I learned I have TMS. I had surgery to remove an ovary 2 weeks ago. Traumatic experience but recovery has been going well (much easier than hysterectomy)...

Joey sorry I don't have any advise but only wanted to share that I too am battling a new symptom of fatigue. Its not pleasant thats for sure! For me it just sort of hits out of nowhere first affecting my vision. I get very blurry eyes, Sort of double vision. Then extreme tiredness where I MUST...

Thank you Cee. I decided to take a different approach (as I was feeling confident and full of energy this morning) and throw myself full speed ahead into activity ignoring every twinge and burning sensation. I went straight to the pool this morning and worked harder than ever. Mentally it feels...

OK so after 1 month of little to no pain...what I call background noise...its all come back again. I have had some stressors. Which I've acknowledged and journaled about. I bent over 2 days ago and had a sharp pain in my back (after doing this repeatedly for at least 1 week with zero pain) Then...
