It does alleviate some of the worries I had about further hurting myself. I'm glad that I can continue to work at least, even when it hurts. I think this will remove a lot of worry I did have. I think everything you say does make perfect sense; I am trying to consider that this instance of my...

Thank you for your reply. I actually had the doctor ring me last Friday to discuss the EMG results. I'm sure it was dumbed down for me, but the basic idea I could gather is that there is no ongoing issue/compression, which is good, but they can see on the EMG that there was an injury to the neck...

Jayver17, thank you for sharing this. It's so worrying when I can seemingly pinpoint the exact moment of 'injury' like this, with a pop or a twinge, but even so, common sense tells me that the twinge was months ago and should have healed by now. Firstly, I'm sorry that the neurologist made...

Hi guys! It's been a long while since I used this forum regularly. I'd say about 4 or 5 years ago I managed to heal myself from severe RSI using help from this site. Well, I'm back in RSI hell again and I'm seeking a bit of support. August of last year, I moved weirdly and twinged a nerve in my...

Hi Lizzy, ever so sorry for the late reply! I didnt realise I had a new reply until today Thanks so much for the input. Whenever my arm plays up badly, I do try to tell myself that it just doesnt make sense. A common thought is 'I shouldnt be hurting this much from just drawing', but I've...

Hi Andy! Thank you for your reply. This correlation has really bothered me all the way through my TMS healing. I keep doing my best to try and see through the pain whenever it starts, but ive never managed to get it to vanish with the power of the mind. Its always just there to stay and will...

Hello Everyone, hope you are having a good week I am still having real trouble with RSI in my wrist and elbow. Trying my best to tackle it each time I work, but it follows the same patterns and I cant seem to break the cycle at all. My question this time is: How do you approach pain that gets...

Hello Mae! Sadly, although not necessarily worse, my pain is about the same. I get regular bouts of wrist, elbow or finger pain. Sometimes its up in my shoulders. I've tried to be as productive as possible and keep working but sometimes its too much. Currently I'm dealing with a very sore...

I was exactly the same when I first realised that my pain wasnt going away with drugs and rest. Started obsessing over every little detail in my arm, feeling along my muscles and tendons, etc. I started doing stretches and weight exercises to try and strengthen everything, but it didnt make a...

Hello aphex! Your story reminds me a lot of my own. Please read my post here, and hopefully it'll be a bit encouraging atleast to know that you're not the only one with RSI troubles. I have tried everything you have, including changing up my whole diet. I wish I could tell you that i'm cured...

Hello again, thank you so much for your answers! I will see if I can pick up that book too. It cant hurt! I must say its a tad frustrating that a lot of the focus is on back pain. I understand that back pain is most common, but I would certainly love to read more on TMS manifesting as carpal...

Thank you Tennis Tom! None of my therapists were TMS practitioners. Only things like Hand surgeon, Physiotherapist, Chiro, etc etc. All addressing the physical side. I think I have to agree. I do love having my back massaged every so often by the Chiro, but I dont think it's worth the money...

Heyy! Thanks so much for this!! Your list is very interesting. Firstly, a question; Is 'The Divided Mind' any different from The MindBody Prescription? I have read the latter book and I'm wondering if theres anything inside The Divided Mind that I might be missing. Is it worth having both...
