    Jeremy Whitacre's Blog on Doctors

    Some angel in this forum recently turned me onto Jeremy Whitacre and by extension his blog. I've been reading it (it seems dormant but there is a lot of material) and I am liking quite a lot of what I am reading. He's pretty much "basic Sarno" in his approach which is part of the appeal to me...

    TMS and vision issues, diagnosis that’s a judgement call

    Hi, I’ve been working through some TMS stuff for a month and a half or so. Solved some neck pain and hip pain. Think it was related to my TMJ too. For several months I’ve been having what I’m now reading are the symptoms of binocular vision disfunction. Dizziness when looking at my phone...

    Day 4 What doctors say

    This is not about TMS, but doctors in general and a rant for myself. I have no trust in doctors anymore. I will go there if I break my arm to get a cast, not about general health. Most doctors have no critical thinking, they work on autonomy from old text books. An example that makes me very...

    Day 4 I don't like doctors

    I'm really burnt out on doctors and won't even go back to any to see if my hamstring situation has worsened since my tendinopathy diagnosis or if I have another disc issue in my lumbar spine (had one before but they said it healed). I've had a few discouraging experiences with them. The first...

    Day 4 What’s the most disheartening thing a Dr. ever told you?

    What’s the most disheartening thing a Dr. ever told me? The first time I went to a doctor for TMS, it was for tingling on the bottom of my foot and all sorts of strange sensations in my back and they told me they didn’t know what it was. This was before the Internet, and way before I found out...

    TMS Gastroenterologist

    Hi, I looked at the practitioner directory and I do not see any practicing gastros, does anyone know of one in the NYC area or who will do telemed and is elsewhere? Thanks

    Following PT advice: To see or not to see a neurologist?

    Ok, so first off: I vote to not see a neurologist. Am I right? So today, I timidly stuck my foot down the rabbit hole by going to a PT (recommended by my primary care doc for deconditioning (ie. Being really out of shape). I knew this was a risky move for my sanity, but I’ve never been to a PT...

    Do I have to go to a doctor?

    Hi, I have been fighting TMS on and off for 30 years. I have had insomnia, depression, IBS, foot pain, back pain, neck pain, severe panic attacks, leg numbness, neuropathy, plantar fasciitis, leg weakness, allergies, persistent cough, numb and tingling hands, hands curling up (won’t open all...

    When can I stop "getting checked out"?

    I feel like everything I read about TMS always has a caveat - "by all means, get checked out first!" I think that's great and yes, you should. But I'm struggling with the question of, "When can I stop?" I had hip, low abdominal pain. Got an ultrasound. All clear. It felt better. I had right...
