Sf340flier I was so happy to read your post. One because it's great that you are not in pain anymore ; and two because it's always good to hear that you just didn't even break stride when the radiologist delivered a description of your spine that could have sent you into a spiral. But it...

New Warrior, Good Morning, I feel your fears. I am 71 and was just told I had an optic nerve stroke. I posted yesterday but so far no replies. I too am single and alone. For us to worry about when the time will come is so useless. We both know that intellectually. My days get somewhat...

Well friends, I haven't posted in a long time. I've been working steadily on my MBS. This week I was hospitalized for vision changes in my left eye following cataract surgery June 9. After multiple consults and tests, the diagnosis is essentially a stroke to the optic nerve. There is a...

Justin, You have renewed my hope and inspired us to keep going. Wonderful video. Thank you.

Mbo I am 70 and can say that by the time you have reached your 6th and 7th decade, you have likely developed a few medical problems you did not have earlier in life. And the medical model doesn't help much because they make you feel like they really cant do much for you and you feel pretty...

Hi mbo, Like I said above, my understanding of the difference between these diagnoses is tendenosis is degeneration of the tendon whereas tendonitis is inflammation of the tendon. I have seen Dr Schubiner in the past tho not for this. If I cant get on the safe side of it myself, I may have...

Andy Thank you for your reply. It is a scary diagnosis. My understanding is tendonosis is defined as degeneration of the tendon. So I keep reminding myself that Sarno never got excited about degenerative disc disease. He just wrote it off as a normal abnormality. Today I am going to the...

Looking back over this year, I have to say I feel good about the progress I have made with a lot of issues. I have far fewer migraines...like I went from taking medication twice a week to taking it once a month. I dont have reflux much anymore, and when I do, it goes away quickly and I dont...

Dr. Hanscom, I would like to read your new book. My hesitation is I already had an L4-5 fusion in 2001 and got about 15 good years in. But for the past 3 years I have been dealing with debilitating LBP and now hip pain. I really dont know if reading this book is going to frighten me more...

When it comes to cardiac issues, I still encourage u to check in with your physician if u have not done so already. Even a TMS physician would tell u that. I have TMS FOR SURE but also have a cardiac diagnosis; and TMS makes it worse when the anxiety is high. I wish you the very best on your...

Artmuzz, A heart rate in the 40-50's is not unusual when we are sleeping. My cardiologist told me once it's like an amusement park shutting down for the night. That being said, I don't know anything about u or if u have any medical issues. You mentioned in a previous post u had high BP when...

Yesterday I went for that same walk and with much better results! In fact I walked farther and my heart rate and oxygen levels remained normal. So that had to be TMS or just crappy readings on the pulse oximeter or both. I am happy and taking a break today but will walk again tomorrow until I...

That was a great article from Hanson. I am going to look at the website he referenced HeartMath.com. I have always wanted to learn more about allowing the healing part of my brain to take over instead of the part that frightens me so regularly. Thank you.
