tms?

Hello! I am pretty new to TMS. I have had lower back pain for about 2.5 months. I’ve seen GPS, chiros, an orthopedist (even had a nice trip to the ER, that was fun) and no one seems to find anything. I had an MRI that the orthopedist said was “perfect” and there was nothing to even improve upon...

I had some ankle pain from running at the start of the year, then I gave up running. The ankle pain eventually went away. Now it only hurts walking in wearing certain shoes (which used to be fine), and even just sitting hurts my ankle which makes no sense. It's like my ankle has become ultra...

Hi guys, I was hoping I could get your advice on pain I've been having for the past few weeks to help determine whether this is an injury or TMS. I have had multiple TMS related symptoms in the past (such as stomach problems, headaches, back pain) etc and have almost all the characteristics of...

Unfortunately during the chat a few weeks ago someone told me that the therapists don't respond to the ''ask a therapist'' thread anymore. I was wondering if there are people on this forum who can share their experiences with trigger finger caused by TMS. Does it exist and what are your...

hi all: I have been on here for 6 months or so. I wonder if I can ask for feedback on the question "Do I have TMS?". I know people can't give me medical advice but in my mind it is pretty clear. However, from everything I read it is VERY important to completely accept that you do not have a...

Hi All, I signed up here a year ago and started to work the structural education program. I found the journaling very triggering at the time, which is why I think I didn't continue. I then went on to really do some research on physical symptoms I was having. I was a medical mystery to my...

Has anyone heard of this genetic mutation? I'm wondering if one had an "illness/condition" because of this mutation, would that mean treating it as a TMS condition would not be possible—would it be considered a concrete "injury" similar to a broken bone, since there is a physical abnormality...

Hi, When I was in my early 20s I had a prolonged (very) stressful period in my life and subsequently developed what I would call a severe case of fibromyalgia. I suffered through it for many years and nothing I did relieved it in any way - and I tried everything. I discovered The Mind Body...

I'll be as brief as I can. I've had TMS for 15 years: pelvic pain, stomach pain, nerve burning, back pain, chest pain, you name it. But...in 2008, I had a very real brain aneurysm, and was saved via surgery. I was fine both cognitively and emotionally immediately after the surgery, but...

I feel like there’s a real conundrum in trying to overcome my TMS. When I’m hit with symptoms, I often try to ignore them, go about my day as I usually would, pretend to be happy and smile and act like nothing is wrong, hoping that by doing so I will be sending a message to my brain that its...
