Hi TG, hi Diana, I've not been on these forums a lot but I just wanted to let you know that your messages are much appreciated. The last months have been hard on me and my symptoms have been either constant or worse. Unfortunately, everything actually seems to point towards real structural...

...you have a physical abnormality associated with symptoms, but other people with the same physical abnormality have less or no symptoms ? I'm struggling with a condition caused by pregnancy and childbirth that I've never seen documented in TMS literature or forums, but that behaves...

Thank you Jan ! This helps a lot. I feel à lot calmer since my first message, but the pudendal neuralgia is still driving me crazy. I'll be 3 months postpartum this Thursday, I've decided to wait and see where I'll be at 6 months pp.

I haven't posted here for a while, as I have been busy being pregnant and delivering a healthy, beautiful baby girl in April . Labor went quite well, although I ended up with a 2nd grade perineal tear (the most common kind) that had to be restitched a week after because of an infection (ouch)...

I just listened to this podcast : . This is the very inspiring story of a woman who had a very rough start in life and decided to be happy nonetheless. It's not directly TMS-related, and as it's a vegan podcast they talk a lot about food (so proceed with caution if this can trigger you !), but...

Does anyone of you have any experience treating pregnancy-related pains as TMS ? I'm currently almost 7 weeks pregnant with my first and I'm experiencing some sciatica and pelvic pain that are said to be common in pregnancy. But I'm à bit skeptical as I've had these before and they definitely...

Wow, that's good to hear ! I'm really happy for you, and it gives me hop to get to running again !!

Thanks Cactusflower, I'll check this book (although I live in Europe, so not sure if I can get it in time) ! And I'll definitely check Claire Weekes', too ; I've wanted to do it for some time and always postponed. I'm currently thinking about asking my partner to change our plans and do an...

Went on a 18km hike today (even ground). Knees hurt during and after... I went with confidence that I would enjoy the hike whatever happened, but I ended up checking my knees all along. I SO want it to be gone for my big hike in 2 weeks, but I know it's counterproductive to set a date on...

Hi map76, I'm sorry to read about your hardships. However, please know that having to take meds is not, and never will be a failure. There are several veterans on this site that have talked about this. Sometimes we just need to be gentle with ourselves and get some external help so the pain can...
