foot pain

Hi everyone, I have a long history of TMS and have resolved many issues using Sarno's work — including a dramatic recovery from bilateral plantar fasciitis where I was on crutches for months. I'm a skeptical, rational person so I wouldn't believe this if someone else told me, but it happened...

Hi Folks, I'm writing with a slightly fatigued state of mind, and I'm not after any specific answers - but if you're minded to chime in with any observations, I would be grateful. I've got a history of TMS, most notably about nine years ago when a terrible foot pain struck my right foot while...

This has really taken a big toll on my life in all aspects and I'm writing this to see if anyone has any advice for me as I'm lost at the moment. To give some background on me, I'm a 21-year-old college student who had found TMS through an elbow injury I had a few years back. Back then I had no...

Hi all, I'm new here - have read a lot of the threads (which have been very helpful and insightful) and thought I'd share my own story in search of some advice. I was introduced to the concept of pain & the brain about a year ago, but have only seriously started to delve into TMS about two...

Hi, I'm a 38-yo dude in San Francisco with a lot of widespread pain that I'm convinced is PPD. I just joined. I wanted to introduce myself here, hoping to find a couple people with similar backgrounds. Does my background remind you of anyone I should compare notes with? What would you advise...

I was last here a few years ago with foot pain problems which went away after an MRI showed that there was absolutely nothing wrong with the foot. It was my right foot and despite everything being fine for many years, I've always had a 'watchful' sense of it, the big toe in particular. I work...

Hi there, I'm writing this in the hopes that it might comfort someone, or help them to know that I overcame my plantar fasciitis as TMS and you can, too. My plantar fasciitis started when I was just 15 years old. I began noticing pain in my arches of my feet when I walked on uneven surfaces...

Hey, All, I've been away from the forum for a while and just posted a success story in that section. Nice to have been able to successfully apply the wisdom of mindbody theory to recovering from years of back pain. My thanks again to everyone who helped me. Meanwhile, I'm struggling with my...

Never mind

Hi all, About a month ago I went for a 3 day hike, no pain. A week later, a long road trip resulting in a twinge of pain in my right foot in a number of places. This twinge slowly built up as I got closer to doing a major, 800k hike in Spain Ive been anticipating. Ultrasound showed no issues...

Here's a new game for us all to play! To highlight the vast array of ridiculous diagnoses out there and also to illustrate the many ways that TMS shows up, post a comment on your most ridiculous diagnosis ever received that was in the end TMS in disguise. I'll go first... I was once told by a...

Hi all, I am new to this forum, buy have been reading this for about 5 years now. That’s because I have been struggling with all sorts of different TMS issues for about 10 years, since 2012. I was always hesitant to join in for various reasons, but now I am at a complete dead end and am...

Hi everyone! My name is Maryanne. I recently learned about TMS after downloading the curable app and a lightbulb went off for me. I don't want to self-disgnose and am fortunate enough to live in the Midwest, so I made an appointment with Dr. John Stracks for next month to see if I should try a...

Folks trying to get through these two symptoms for about a year and just need some suppport/encouragement today. I’ve got it down to tension in the body and unconscious emotion. Doing everything that’s been suggested. My butt pain is not shifting. I awake and it’s very light dull sensation...

Greetings to everyone on the TMS Forum! Before I mention my current issues, I would like to give a little insight on myself and my history with TMS. So I'm a 19 year old boy, and only a year and a half ago did I figure out that TMS existed and it was a condition I had. At the time, it...

So here it goes. My story starts back in September 2018, although it seems like forever ago I know many have been suffering longer. let me start by saying I am a runner, at my prime I am running 40 miles a week, September 2018 I completed and PRed in the Erie Marathon. I had no pain during the...

In 2012, after a months long program of hard exercise (lots of intense jump/plyometric training) my left foot started to really hurt and be constantly tight on the underside. Podiatrist diagnosed Plantar Fasciitis, and prescribed anti-inflammatory meds + foot taping to relieve the pain walking...

Hi Great Self-Healers! A friend made this video of me skiing, and I want to share. We climb the mountain for every turn. I really think it is important to see success over and over again in our community. I'm encouraging everyone to tune into their own path, don't give up, and be gentle and...

I have had loads of tms symptoms before. Mostly I have successfully addressed them but two are still bothersome and I’d like some reassurance if anyone else has had them. One is I like to run but developed a callus on the side/bottom of both big toes - it’s called pinch callus. For the past 6...

This is a doozy of a story. Feel free to skim it or read it in its entirety. Either way, I'd love any input, feedback, advice, encouragement, or warnings you might have. I feel so incredibly lost. Thanks, my friends. Background/context: I've had lots of trouble with very tight calves and...
