    Frequent Flares-medicine holding me back?

    I was doing so much better but in the last month or so, I've had frequent flares. I feel like I went backwards and erased any progress I had main. The last three weeks, I have ended up on the couch at some point and I couldn't do much at all. It scared me. I was having a particularly bad day...

    Symptoms resolved only thirty minutes after using medicated cream?

    Hello again! I am back with another question about the behaviors of TMS symptoms (although you would think by now that I would already know how this goes but when you’re in it, it’s hard to view it from a third party perspective), haha. okay, so. I am no stranger to TMS. I’m pretty sure I have...

    Program Flare-ups/Relapses, and Medication Use

    Just spent years tapering medications and just when I could finally rest as I finished all difficult tapers 2 months ago, I had continuous recent major stress, demands and worry about a loved one for a month straight which brought me to a tipping point and the following occurred: New burning...

    Is anyone on medication for pain?

    My GP just resigned and I have a new GP for check-up, blood work, the usual tests we all need every 6-12 mths. I of course mentioned my pain and explained briefly why I believe I have it. She suggested prescribing Gabapentin to give me a break. I know Dr Sarno said it was ok to take meds but I'm...

    medication and tms

    Je prends des anxiolytiques et un antidépresseur. Est-il possible de suivre le programme quand même ou faut-il le faire en l'absence de médicaments ? Ma douleur est au talon de mon pied depuis 5 ans et je sais qu'elle me fait peur. Avec les anxiolytiques, j'ai moins peur et ma douleur est...

    Is medication forever?

    I have extreme ocd ruining my life. I can’t do a lot of things without overthinking. Heck, everything I make I probably overthink. I’m scared to take medication because of things I heard. Is this a forever thing? I cant function well right now. I also have way too many mental things going...

    Medication as a trigger for TMS?

    I am very new to TMS, but I have found it immediately beneficial for neck and shoulder tension/pain that's been plaguing me for months. It brought very quick relief and I am excited to investigate it further for my Chronic Prostatitis (I will post something about my story in the general forum)...

    Day 11 A breakthrough-I've reduced my meds

    Yesterday was the first day for a long time that I was able to go without anti-inflammatories. Yay! I think the breakthrough came from the journaling I've been doing. I have found it to be very emotional but cathartic. For the first time I also really believe that it is TMS and the doubts I...

    Day 15 Is pain moving

    During the past week, my pain has both moved and has gotten very intense. It has been about 6.5 weeks since my abdominal surgery and I rarely used pain meds, and never an entire pill, this week I gave up and took several medications. It has been a real struggle. I feel like I am getting worse...

    TMS: Increase in medication side effects?

    I'm on medication that can/does have side effects. At times the side effects are more pronounced than at others. Yes, I suppose this very well could be TMS. I'm wondering if anyone has any experience of this actually being TMS. Has anyone used TMS techniques to deal with this?

    Pain killers

    Hello everyone When I get an acute back pain episode i feel the need to take pain killers. The problem is i take an anti inflammatory that kinda works but I think it's a placebo effect. The fact that it is anti inflammatory seems to be reinforcing that it is physical and not psychological...
