My Story
My history with, what must be TMS:
Age 20: Carpal tunnel syndrome
Started when: First desk job
Lasted: 2 years
Treatment:: Cortisone injections
Age 21: Intense numbness in forearms
Started when: Painting a fence
Lasted: 10 years.
Treatment: 80% fixed with trigger point injections/Gabapentin
Ages 26: Ulnar tunnel syndrome
Started when: Computer usage
Lasted: Still going, off and on
Treatment: Under control with acupuncture and sleeping with elbow braces
Age 31: TMJD
Started when: ????. Possibly stressful relationship.
Lasted 3 years
80% treated with surgery and physiotherapy
Age 35: Knee/meniscus
Started when: Walked into a big potted plant (yes, seriously)
Lasted: 2 years
Treatment: Surgery, PT...Improved significantly until....
Age 37: Knee again/hip/lower leg
Started when: Foam rolling slip-up
Lasted: Stiiiilllll going
Treatment: Cortisone injection, PT, chiropractic, acupuncture, exercise, Graston. Not much is helping :-(
I will say though, I do believe it is possible to get better. That being said - it's really, really difficult to believe that I can make this pain go away just by the power of thinking differenty.
I may not be seeing any relief now, and no two people have the same stories, but I would like to hear yours even if it's a little different. - Loading...
