Hi Andy, thanks for the encouragement! right now I'm working on it! thanks a lot!

Hi guys, so I've just been experiencing relapse 3 weeks ago (complete low back spasm out from nowhere - just squat down to pick up something and BAM!) but I know this is TMS. I still workout lightly and right now I'm doing much better (little pain) However, I notice that my fear / anxiety is...

Hi all, this is not my first post - I'm still battling with TMS (back & buttock & leg pain) with inital MRI diagnose as bulging disc at L4 & herniated disc at L5 pain been going on & off for years, but suddenly develop leg pain few days after I read my MRI result & googling the symptoms. All...

Hi Fred & pspa, thanks for the reply! To be honest I'm also surprised the doc said that. He explained that my body already adapt and no further intervention is necessary. he only prescibed OTC medicine for flare ups only and said I can do anything I want as long as I used common sense LOL. I...
