Lee222, ah that’s the question, how to change this! I cannot give you a good answer, I am afraid. I am still struggling. What I learned: to accept the pain and that often makes to go away after a initial phase. The next: do I really like the task? Sometimes it is more prestige than pleasure. Of...

Maybe your nerve system has learned to react to challenges in life (like a second job or a giving a course) with being sensitized. And this can lead to numerous symptoms. I love my work, but when I have a challenging task my pelvic floor muscles will clench and I get symptoms of an UTI. I...

Thank you JanAtherCPA! Yes, I read about the connection between stress and inflammation. There is also a connection between anxiety and inflammation. I read also about neurogenic inflammation. There can be leucocytes in urine without bacterial inflammation. I am in treatment with specialists in...

Meanwhile I had a real UTI, and vaginal infection. I am at the end of medical treatment for this and, not surprising, the pain is still there. Not as bad as it had been, and sometimes it subsides totally, so I had really good days. The anxiety comes sometimes back, it is not as strong as it had...

Thank you Cactusflower! I will listen to the story of Rebecca Tolin. And I will try the 15 minute meditation, sure! I guess you noticed that I am in hyper vigilant state right now. I know that I need to get into a different state. Decision making seems to give control, but it isn’t. Thank you...

Thank you Rapscuttle and Joulegirl! What you tell me is that TMS work would be good, even if there might be something going on that has to be dealt with other ways (medication). That was also my idea. This is interesting about cats, there can be white blood cells in the absence of bacteria...

Dear all, This is going to be a longer post. I am back now, had been away since 2020. And no, I haven’t found reliable relief yet. In 2020 I followed the route of finding a ‘nonTMS’ cause. In 2020 I had been diagnosed with chronic UTI by specialists. Took 18 months of antibiotics, accompanied by...

Chronicpelvicpain, this is an old post. I do not know if you still need the information, but biofilm infections exist. You can google chronic UTI. There are a few specialists in the UK and US treating this. My experience is mixed. Mind body dimension is a part of it, though I think it is a...

Here I am again, I am in such an anxious state and just can continue with this thread! I had been absent from the forum for a year or so. Bladderwise I am doing good, however, the reason is a long term-antibiotics which seem to solve my problem. (Notice: I neither say that this therapy would...

Hi Jules! I remember that you got very much better last year. Sorry to hear that menopause is difficult for you. Some react to estrogen like you did. I also had nausea for some weeks until I stopped taking it. The perspective one has on menopause might be important. Some women experience this...

Hi Karina, So sorry! I don’t have experience with Tinnitus, but my mother has. And she says that ignoring it, is the best way for her to cope with it. In this way it bothers her not. You are grieving and I think you are under much stress. All what happened in your family kind of culminated...

Dear Saturngirl, you could ask for an appointment with a TMS doctor. This would give you the necessary informations and guidelines what is the best. I honestly don’t know if it is ok to treat psoriatic arthritis as TMS. I remember Dr. Schubiner saying that arthritis is not TMS, or at least not...

Thanks for asking WestB, well it’s still a bumpy road. I’ll take antibiotics, now the third time for two weeks. I have no adverse side effects and there are now less bacteria. I have to avoid mast cell triggers (liberators), which is easy to do at home, it is a it an ordeal when eating out...

Great idea, however, in my experience not all family members or friends want to know really what is going on. I learned that it is best to keep it short and not complicated. Something like: my body reacts in a certain way to stress and I learning how to cope better with stress. The problem is...
