i went to the ER tonight and got a CT scan and it came back OK. tomorrow they now recommend i get an MRI just to rule everything out. And as we know, you need to go through mostly all the appropriate medical tests before you can fully accept TMS. but i still really think it’s TMS! wish me luck!

all that sounds reasonable… it definitely is fluctuating. and does seem to be double side by side or double on top of another. that fluctuates too. it definitely sends me into a momentary panic when it happens and of course, that often makes it worse. there’s something about it that just really...

it’s binocular. when an eye is closed it sees fine. and i have no other weird attendant symptoms like nausea or headaches or dizziness. etc…

I haven’t been on here in a few years, because I mostly had all my TMS issues completely and totally resolved, but all of a sudden going through one of the most stressful periods of my adult life, when I’m in the process of losing a job that I love, I get this crazy, intermittent double vision...

thank you for your thoughtful response! have you used IFS to treat any TMS symptoms? do you think firefighters and managers are responsible for creating physical pains/sensations in the body?

Has anyone tried IFS therapy for TMS symptom relief? What “parts” of IFS do you think are responsible for the symptoms? Managers or Firefighters? It’s very interesting material and I think the concept can be used to understand TMS. thoughts?

Thanks, Jan! BTW, I just listened to your interview with Nicole Sachs and it was really lovely to hear your voice and story. Good luck with the RA, it's definitely TMS related, from what I can tell and I know you'll eventually heal from it 100% but get ready for whatever bullshit the symptom...

As a long-time TMS warrior with many various aches, pains and disorders and symptom imperatives, I am very well versed in how pernicious and sneaky TMS can be! A recent revelation I had was that the condition of Limerence is a TMS equivalent. Limerence is the addictive/obsessive infatuation...

it's amazing, because I hardly ever have any urinary or penis or bladder issues any longer. Eventually, they just went away as I stopped caring or worrying about them. isn't that amazing? I have NEW issues, however, because the symptom imperative still demands something within me. It's like a...

Yikes! I've been suffering with slight acid reflux recently and extreme shortness of breath. I thought they were perhaps mutually exclusive but I've read that they are common together. The acid reflux I had years ago realized it was TMS and it went away, Now 6 years later, it seems to be back...
