My Story
I’ve really had TMS Avery long time.
Years ago I spent thousands trying to find the answers to my symptoms. I felt twisted, all wrong. I can’t recall my diagnosis back then but they weren’t structural, just normal wear and tear for my age at the time.
Finally I found Dr Sarno’s work and as a result of his approach I’ve overcome the chronic back issues.
However TMS has octopussed its way into the facade of several other sensations including finger pain, knee burning, buttock pain, costacondroitus (heart area pain) burning under right rib cage, breast pain, elbow and wrist pain, general achiness. After the last back spasm 18 months ago the back pain subsided relatively quickly but suddenly my right hip/thigh/groin became so pained I couldn’t walk without pain or perform any leg movement sideways without pain. This went on for about 12 months.
It recently subsided but these sensations (like my leg is going yo snap off at the hip) has migrated into the left hip/thigh/groin. I cannot shake it this time. It gets me so down.
I don’t want to get more diagnosis’s as if it’s arthritis, there’s no cure. Given that I am and A student when it comes yo having the traits of a typical TMS candidate (I have them all) I just know it’s TMS.
I have joined the Curable community and am doing more ‘work’. Where I’m at now emotionally is that I’m aware there are a million reasons why my brain is feeling unsafe, and I know it’s my job yo self soothe, however I need support from similar sufferers, I’m so alone and feel so stuck, literally in my life and in my leg.
I feelthat my being isolated is what’s preventing my recovery. There are no TMS type therapists in my region. - Loading...
