Does anyone else have there pain come back in the morning upon waking up? Not always, but often my pain will be decreased when I go to bed but it will be back to being pretty intense by the morning. I have a feeling this is because subconscious negative thinking while I'm asleep, thus making the...

No apology necessary. Symptoms don't necessarily have to be the same with TMS, even when it's affecting the same area of the body in groups of people. Just think of it as different sensations, but they're still distressing. In that sense, they are the "same." The tactics these people used are...

This post I have linked below is very helpful. It has links to a number of various pelvic pain success stories. http://www.tmswiki.org/forum/threads/links-to-pelvic-pain-success-stories.11820/ (Links to Pelvic Pain Success Stories)

Just a placebo in this case--especially if the TMS doc ruled out structural. Let the doc's assurance also give you confidence in the diagnosis!

First off, happy birthday! Secondly, it's really great that you're going to hear from Dr. Schubiner, but in the meantime I have a few relaxation tips that could help with your pain. TMS loves fear and anxiety--that's what keeps it going and makes it thrive. Even though you're in a lot of pain...

Since you've been checked out, and the pain persists after you've had plenty of medications that "should" have gotten rid of the pain, it really does sound like TMS. I know it's upsetting to have that kind of pelvic pain, but I would really look into the pelvic pain success stories on this site...

Hi everybody! *Note: when the pain first started 10 years ago any structural abnormalities were cleared from countless medical tests/various docs. The reason I joined this forum close to a month ago is because I've had a relapse of my TMS--pelvic pain. But while I have posted about TMS stuff, I...

wow, that's very interesting--especially the fact that you feel a sense of relief when you wake up. I have similar dreams towards this person--I'll be either yelling at them, or hurling insults at them. It's basically like I'm just spewing all the things I wish I could say in persons to them but...

I completely agree with Birder's statement--clearly, you've seen many doctors and there isn't anything structurally wrong, or you'd know by now. All these varying symptoms go along with TMS. Start delving deep into emotions that are negative. What are the feelings you could be suppressing that...

Thank you for the response, I take it as a good sign that I have been having so many dreams about this person. Another funny thing, before this current flare, I had been having nightmares where I'm actually, physically in the EXACT discomfort I'm in now--because it's such a fear of mine. Like...

Hey guys, During this current flare I find myself in, there have been numerous instances where my pain drops dramatically, if not completely disappears. I find that more often than not, it drops when I have been thinking positively about TMS and not negatively. I get so happy and think "Yes...

Hi Renate, First off I'm sorry to hear that you were having a bad time of it, but seeing from your latest update you sound like you're doing better! TMS works differently for everyone, all healing times are different, but all healing times are definite! Trust me, I go back and forth with...
