foot pain

A couple of weeks ago I had a medication review with my doc. I told her I had been on the infamous Gabapentin for 6 years now, and while it does take the edge off my pain a little, it doesn't really do a great job of controlling my pain. She was very honest about my condition (chronic...

I really liked the material for today. Reading Enrique's story reminded me of my own recovery from RSI (which of course featured in Day 11, and which I also posted about) and reading what Dr. Schubiner wrote about triggers was extremely helpful. I especially like what he said about how you can...

I had the funniest experience today. I'm doing the SEP because I've had trouble getting rid of my foot pain and finally thought I should do something systematic instead of scattershot. So what did I come across today except my own Success Story from RSI as reading material! :) And it says "If...

A little background before the episode given me by a dr. In 1999 I injured the arch of my right foot. My foot hurt for 5 1/2 mo. Went to my dr, told about inflamation, got orthotics, no good. Couldn't drive, or stand for long. The upside was I love to read! Ha! One day I apologized for...

My Case: Hello, I'm new to posting in the TMS wiki, though I've been reading it as a means of support in this trying time. I was scared when my back pain was happening, but now that it has turned into nerve pain (tingling, burning, numbness, muscle soreness) in both legs, feet, and all of a...

I've been pretty busy with work and other things in my life these days, mostly away from SEP. But I didn't forget journaling when my symptoms are really bad particularly. While I was away from SEP, I kept using TMS healing techniques on my mind. I first tried to enjoy and be happy with my life...

Hello All! My name is Jacopo and I live in Nyc since almost 9 years, I moved here from Milano, Italy I was 31 years old. I did have a plan how to succeed in my life but I was inside very scared of the new path. So I started to develop back pain. I remember one night I woke up in so much pain I...

Since discovering the work of Dr. John Sarno 8 months ago, my life has undergone a transformation that I had never dreamed was possible. My journey of chronic pain began when I was 15 years old. I developed chronic, crippling pain in my left foot that was diagnosed as plantar fasciitis. After...

Good day readers. I'm new to this site but have been checking in for almost a year now since discovering Dr Sarno and the term 'TMS'. I've had TMS for over twenty years and am now almost completely pain free, all thanks Dr Sarno, Steve Ozanich’s book “The Great Pain Deception” and TMS wiki...
