I just wanted to check-in with an update. I went through the program about 6 months ago and I have been totally pain free ever since. I did not have the "book cure"-it took me a little while, but it worked. I now jog up to 5 miles a day with absolutely zero pain-I mean ZERO. (I was not able to...

Thanks to everyone on the TMS Wiki for their support, stories and encouragement. Here is my success story. For anyone who is skeptical, don't be, it works! After about 6 months of progressively worsening hip (buttock) pain, a friend gave me the Sarno books. I started reading them and they made...

I am pain free. After about 6 weeks of doing the program, I stopped having pain. I was distracted and excited about getting ready for Christmas and the pain just disappeared. I wanted to just let anyone know that if you stick with it (and I had doubts), it really does work! Incredible. I want...

I am noticing a pattern. I have noticed a pattern. The pain is the worst in the early morning hours and wakes me. Once I am up and getting the kids ready, it goes away. It comes back when I have down time or am doing some task I do not love. It goes when you are in "flow", when you are wrapped...

Ok thanks so much. I looked in all the tms forums and could not find an answer, so I emailed the question and hope an expert answers. Apparently this is a very common problem--maybe tms? maybe structural? maybe both? THanks again.

So as I last posted I have had some doubts based on my diastasis recti diagnosis. My doctor says I need the surgery (basically your stomach muscles are split apart and weakened from pregnancy). They say one of the symptoms is lower back, hip, buttock pain-but is this really the case? Since I...

I am thinking about daily pressures and how that affects me. I think I have a lot of guilt surrounding my kids-as most moms do. I feel like I am not doing enough for them, or not done things correctly. I have a lot of kids and my husband has a very demanding job and is not around weeknights to...

Ok this advice really helps. I have been trying to turn a deaf ear to the nay-sayers. There are also people who want to give advice just to feel in control. I have to recognize this. I think the pain is TMS because it moves around and flares-up under stress. THanks again.

Had a flare up this am. Yesterday was talking to relative who knows I am doing this program and asked how it was going. He said great keep doing it and then said "be sure to get that surgery for your stomach though". I had a moment where I was reminded of the diastasis I have from having...
