    went to medical doctor (risky I know) but felt into power

    Went to the doctor today on advice from my PT seeing something concerning in the fact that I was having pin-pricky tingling around my groin, a symptom of Cauda Equina Syndrome (compression of spinal canal). So I went, reluctantly, not wanting to jeopardize my progress in TMS. Right out the...

    My Doctor: “You should be in agony.”

    So, this was an interesting doctor’s visit for me and I thought this may help others or bring comfort somehow in regards to back pain and the notion that muscle tension “is the root” back pain. Spoiler alert, it’s not always. I went to my doctor’s office for a follow-up after a car accident I...

    Doctor and TMS

    I can't find a doctor in Italy who deals with TMS, only a physiotherapist. I saw that the closest doctor is Dr. Nir Brosh in Berlin. Can you confirm that?

    How do you not go to the doctor for new symptoms?

    For context: I have had TMS for 7 years. It all started with dizziness and a flurry of other symptoms that doesn't really matter. I have finally come to a place where my fear is really low and symptoms have been improving. Now in the last 3 months, I have had two UTI's (Dr. Confirmed) that...

    Is it always repressed emotions/rage?

    So I went and saw Dr. Paul Gwozdz (TMS Dr) in NJ for an exam and sat in on his lecture. I learned a few new things and had a great visit with him going over everything in my life. His treatment/homework is to make a list of all things that can be causing your repressed rage. For example, your...

    I did a mistake explaining TMS to a Doctor friend

    A doctor friend of mine on social media called a doctor who believes in Mind-Body connection as quack and that all his Government awards should be revoked. I couldn't hold back for some reason having benefitted from TMS knowledge and setting my life free from unimaginable Pain. Although I asked...

    Hi all: I am 23 an have a very unique situation which means the boundary between structural and TMS is completely blurred. I'm just looking for some confirmation.

    Doctor Evaluations not reliable

    I realize there needs to be disclaimers when discussing "cures" and such, but here is my question. How can we find a doctor we can trust these days? They can be either incorrect in the diagnoses, or convince us with Xrays and test results that we have some disease or abnormality. Getting...

    Ever had your doctor worry that TMS was something else?

    Because of my crazy medical history (posted THIS the other day), I see a few doctors each year for annual check-ups. These are necessary visits to make sure everything is OK after my cancer bouts. Last year my oncologist did her usual poking around and became alarmed at my neck & shoulder...

    Ignoring the Doctor

    Hi All, I have a long history with TMS, and I've been mired in this most recent struggle for nearly a decade now. About 2 months ago I experienced what one might call a 'flare', and my daily pain level became significantly more severe. Usually when I experience a notable increase in pain, I...

You might just see it as a legal disclaimer, but recently a message has been posted on this forum that proves to be a tragic and painful reminder of why this advice is so important. R. was a gentle and active guy...

    Tested: How Often

    Tried doing a search on this but returned 0 results. How often should you get tested when you get a new symptom? I seem to have a particularly active 'symptom imperative' and get new symptoms or pain in new spots ALL the time. If I got checked for them I'd be going to a new doctor atleast once...

    How to Determine if any Physical Cause

    I started the TMS Recovery Program today in order to help me get rid of the last of my pain my body still holds on to. How do I determine if there is any structural reason for the pain my body still has? Don't tell me to ask my gp. She told me I would just have to learn to live with the pain...
