questions

So, these last days had been going amazing. I was doing great (mind you this is coinciding with upping dosage) but i was more comfortable and i could let sound go and i was so proud of myself. I was already thinking about my barbers appointment (which will probably not be anytime soon) but i was...

For some of you curious individuals who may want to get those questions off your chest ( and your back) TMS RoundTable is FLIPPING THE MIC to YOU. Whether you’re wrestling with lingering symptoms, curious about neuroplastic healing, or just need a fresh...

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...

I just reviewed the activities for day three of the SEP. The question to ponder was asking about the last time I did a physical activity/exercise. Throughout my pain history, I haven’t become totally immobile, but definitely restricted as far as the intensity and duration of what I’ve been...

Dear community members, I would like to share my story and see if anybody has similar experience. My partner suffered from terrible back and neck pain for years and tried everything but didn't work. My friend told me about Dr. Sarno's books last year and I convinced my partner to read them. It...

Hi folks, I'm fairly new to TMS, having recently discovering it almost by accident. I've read through most of Dr Sarno's work (actually, I listened because one of my more recent symptoms is blurry vision and reading has become more difficult) and found myself relating so hard it almost hurt...

(If you don't want to read my story, the questions are at the end.) Alright, I've dealt with every TMS related symptoms with a modicum of grace and rationality but this one is driving me insane. I've cultivated a heavy, borderline hypochondriac, fear of oral cancer ever since I swore off...

Hi everyone. I have been wondering if being healed/cured 100% is real/possible or is 80%-90% reality and it’s just tms maintenance from there? I consider myself 80-90% healed because I can go a week or two without anything then something small for a day or two. The back and fourth process is...

So, you’ve read the books, you’ve researched mind/body pain, you understand the concept of neuroplasticity, you check many of the boxes on how your pain behaves like neuro-plastic pain, you’ve checked many of the boxes of the typical TMS personality and yet…you still doubt. And you’ve heard that...

What does the designation Grand Eagle mean and when will Allen Gordon do another podcast on “tell me about your pain”, Last one was May?

I've been reading Freedom From Fibromyalgia by Nancy Selfridge and Franklynn Peterson, and I just finished reading the chapter on anger. I was hoping it would clear some things up for me, but I actually feel even more confused than before. At one point in the chapter, they say this: "What's the...

Hi everyone, Plum posted a link in another thread about a book. See bellow the link to the free PDF. The book is "Mental Health Through Will - Training", written by Abraham Low. I didn't hear about this book until recently (a few days ago). I understand that this is a well known book for...

Hi! I have some questions about TMS/MBS/PDD: 1. In the book Unlearn Your Pain (Dr Schubiner), as well as Dr Sarno's book The Divided Mind, my interpretation is that both mentioned not worrying about other forms of treatment and only focusing on the psychological component, rewiring the...

So I've read healing back pain, I'm doing the SEP...currently reading mind-body prescription. The general idea of TMS as far as I've researched is that the repressed emotions can lead to problems with the autonomic nervous system, thus causing blood flow restriction and finally oxygen...

Hi everyone, I’m new and I need advice and support. Sorry for my bad english, it is not my native langage. I give a little context first. I suffer from pelvic pain from 8 years now. It started suddenly during my pregnancy making it very very difficult. It continued after the birth of my...

Hey everyone! I am a male in my early 20's, I went to the gym a lot during the age of 16-18 before having a 1 year break. Upon returning I had an injury around my Rhomboid area. After giving it lots of rest, stretches, strengthening and alike it just wouldn't stop flaring up when exercising my...

I believe I have TMS sciatica (and back pain) and have read Sarno’s books and watched his video. I am about 70 - 80% better but am stuck at this level (and possibly getting slightly worse) for the last few months. I have managed to stop taking the painkillers (tapentadol) and anti...

Hey all, This question is for anyone and everyone who has healed their pain of tms through the mind body approach and also those still on the journey. I know after I read Sarnos books I had a lot of questions that I eventually sought answers to myself. I am wondering what others have in terms...

Hi everyone, Dr. Sarnos books helped me in the past to stop back pain and other pains. 2 weeks ago I started having low pains on the lower left part of the stomach. I went to a specialist Doctor who said he could feel something very small and it could be just muscle pain or a hernia and he...
