knee pain

One of my favorite TMS stories was about a clinical trial conducted by Dr. Bruce Moseley, who was making a ton of money performing knee surgeries for osteoarthritis but had some suspicions about their efficacy. After he proved that sham surgeries were as good as real ones, he quit the lucrative...

My journey started 1 year ago, though I only found out about TMS very recently. I had just picked up running as a new hobby. It was a sort of replacement for weightlifting which I was unable to do because of a right shoulder injury (I won't get into that now...). After finishing a 4km run...

To solidify my reading I’m going to reflect - spending 15 minutes to half an hour to get TMS trained. yesterdays post “What you’re truly celebrating is that you’re changing your habits, and building a sense of empowerment”. Positive reinforcement for efforts and dopamine rewards for doing...

Success story I wrote for the journal speak group I was in. This is my success story from hypermobile CTD and fibro dx after 5+ years of TMS work. I know how important success stories were for me when I started. Mindbody work has saved my life and I have become obsessed with taking my body to...

So. My “thing” that I have always identified my… well, identity with has been pelvic symptoms. I was diagnosed with pudendal neuralgia, vulvodynia and IC which I have basically 90% healed from thus far. I have some floating symptoms but nothing that stops me from living my life. I’ve been doing...

Hi everyone, looking for some guidance on this one. I’ve known about TMS for 6 years now and healed my chronic pain and other random symptoms with this work. I’ve recently been getting more active and finally admitting to myself that I would like to be healthier and lose some weight as someone...

Hey guys. I was cured of severe chronic pain a few years ago via reading, testimonies and rehabilitation of TMS. It was great. Since then I had a few TMS flare ups that did resolve. If you read my thread history you will see that. However, now I have knee pain. I have never had knee pain. I...

hey all! I love reading success stories, so here's a quick one of mine. I used to be very quick to injure myself working out, to the point that I could almost never work-out. Once I discovered TMS I overcame this very quickly because it was mmma brain. Yesterday I was jumping rope - I'm...

What does it take to get rid of TMS? A lot. Time. Changes in habits. Changes in attitudes. More time. MENTAL BATTLE! Battling day in and day out against a little voice that says you’ll never have a life again. Picking yourself up when things feel hopeless and pushing yourself to do one small...

Hi fellow persistant pain folks! just like you I have been experiencing persistent knee pain/weakness in just about every waking moment of my life with no structural or concrete disgnoses. on the other hand I did have some chiro adjustment early into treatment which I believe are at the root...

Hello all, here's my story. It is quite long and is really quite extraordinary. I have had quite a healing journey and John Sarno has helped me through it. Bear with me.... Prior to 2020, I suffered for many years from a wide variety of horrible symptoms. I was absolutely debilitated from...

Hello everyone, I would like to find a TMS MD, preferably an orthopedist, who would be willing to look at the imaging of the MR of my knee. The imaging found a rupture in the lateral meniscus and a meniscus cyst. I am 99% sure it's TMS as the pain changed as soon as I got the MR and I am the...

Guys, I feel like I'm gonna go crazy playing the symptom imperative whack-a-mole bangheada ! I posted before about vulvodynia/pelvic pain, which has gotten wayyyy better, only to be replaced with reflux/GERD (had it before, just became more prominent), which I can deal with, and now knee pain...

I have knee pain that started in the left, moved to the right and now is in both knees. My PT, chiro and ortho doc all seem stumped by the pain as my issues don't explain the lingering pain. I am trying to get my brain to accept that I have TMS (symptoms get worse with emotions and stress) but...

I was playing soccer with some of my friends on friday night. We played for about 2 hours however towards the end my right knee started hurting a lot and I left for home since running became painful. There was no contact it just started hurting randomly. 3 days later it still hurts and going up...

Hi everyone - I am really struggling with some knee pain that is being resistant to my TMS/Sarno treatment so far. For some context, I've eradicated chronic pain around other areas before (post-hip-surgery, then later related to overuse "injuries" in my foot & shin) so I'm familiar with the...

Came across this article and thought it may be interesting and worth reading for the TMS crowd: https://www.theguardian.com/global/2021/aug/22/how-digital-media-turned-us-all-into-dopamine-addicts-and-what-we-can-do-to-break-the-cycle (Constant craving: how digital media turned us all into...

Good afternoon everyone, It is nice to introduce myself and thank you for having me among you. I am new here, but not to TMS, which I have suffered from, from time-to-time, for the past 25 years. Please excuse me if I am posting this in the wrong forum. I am here to throw out a lifeline and...

Hello. This is my first post here, and I'm not even sure if this is the correct place to post this. In that case I hope that someone notifies me about this. I have had a huge amount of issues regarding different types of chronic pain lately. People that I know in real life have no clue about TMS...
