Just wanted to pop in on this thread and say thank you for sharing your story Dorado. I healed in a very similar way several years ago and read Hillbilly's posts along with Balto on TMS Help - which helped me as I healed. I am back with another issue but it has already decreased by half so...

Thank you had, for your response and your experience! You have no idea how much it helps. It amazes me how quickly one symptom can spiral into several others - always moving around and then that's ALL you feel and think about. I had labs done today to rule out anything else and my doc took...

Hello, I spent a lot of time on this forum while healing from chronic pelvic pain which has since healed several years ago. My experience with pain completely transformed my life and purpose - like many of you. Since then I have experienced a few symptoms other than pelvic pain but nothing...

Hi All, I use to be a member a few years ago but since recovered from two years of chronic pelvic pain using a combination of John Sarno and Claire Weekes tools. I have a friend who has been dealing with back/leg/foot pain and was dx with arachnoiditis. Curious if this condition has ever been...

Hi again! If you add the months before the flare up then it's been almost 4 months. The flare was totally related to negative thoughts And overreacting to a brief symptom. I freaked out (for lack of a better term) and resensitized my nervous system. It completely makes sense. I had only been...

Miss Shamrocks, Don't be discouraged! Continue to accept, allow and let time pass. These positive experiences will build on each other. I definitely had good moments, hours & days only to have the pain return later in the day or the next day. This I believe is part of the process. It can take...

Hi Alysa, I'm sorry you are in pain. I have been painfree for several months now. You can go back and read my posts. Let me know if you have any questions. Xo, Julie

Hi Amy, I am sorry to hear about your pelvic symptoms! I understand exactly how upsetting they can be. Long hours and caring for young children (I taught early childhood for 15 years) is highly stressful. I want to first start off by giving you hope that you can once again live a pain free...

Thanks for the replies Steve and Walt. I agree with you Steve that the depression is the main issue otherwise it would have left with the pain. I lost my pilates business due to the pain and I believe that is why I am dealing with depression. It was a huge part of my identity. Starting my own...

Hi all, I haven't written in months because I was experiencing a long painfree period. This was the first time in over 2 years I was w/o pain. I originally had pelvic/vulvar pain so clothing and sitting were awful. Using a combination of methods: Weekes/Sarno (mostly Weekes) I began to realize...

Hi Leslie, I agree with Ryan to start reading the Claire Weekes book you have. You have been doing well for a couple weeks and now your symptoms returned for whatever reason. That is proof that you are on the right track! Your nervous system will take time to fully heal so while it is doing...

Leslie, I am just in the beginning stages so I am still working on the 100% belief. I went through a lot of trauma in the last two years so that and fear are playing a huge role in why the pain is still around. I have done all the physical work have have improved some because of that. The rest...
