Bursitis of hip and back pain completely gone

Peer Supporter
Thank you all so much for operating this web site and for promoting the work of Doctor Sarno and the writers and practitioners who have followed in his footsteps. I have been using the site and devouring the books for nearly a year now. The pain did try migrating around as in the symptom imperative but understanding of my own shadow anger, fear and actually in my case, self pity, really did the trick. I am a practicing christian and found that taking these things to God in prayers as well as using a diary and then throwing the contents away , and using the structured education programme, [ I worked through it twice] all made it possible for me to heal without actually meeting a therapist.
I intend to keep up to date with information and an currently reading a new book by Steve Ozanich. I do wish I could communicate the success of the process better, many of my friends are suffering but unresponsive to TMS or Mind Body theories. I would like to donate to the web site . Can someone tell me how to do this?
 
It began in my twenties[ I am now in my sixties] with periods when my back would go into spasm totally incapacitating me.[ I actually collapsed on a Zebra crossing once.] Later in my thirties I had an MRI and was told I had degeneration of lower back. I coped with pain killers and taking muscle relaxants during attacks, bought up two kids and worked full time, often hobbling around work. Visited all sorts of healing practitioners. About ten years ago I developed foot pain and was told I had severe bone degeneration in foot so I had surgery and have 7 bits of metal in right foot. Then I developed severe bursitis of hip and shooting pains down my legs when sitting for too long especially in the car. As I began the healing programme and all the reading, the pain started to jump around even more and I encountered tooth ache and swelling of one knee but I knew I had the tms by the name and just carried on with my activities as all the teachers suggest.
The internal journey to sort this all out has been quite long and I don't think I am completely there yet . I was surprised by the things I had repressed. A minor illustration is that the leg pain when driving went when I realized I had not wanted to move away from London and that I was angry with my husband about it. This is really weird as I love the place we now live in and don't want to move back to London now. I only offer this as an example there were other deeper and darker aspects of myself that I encountered.
I will continually refresh my learning during the rest of my life. Currently I am reading Back Pain Permanent Healing by Ozanich. This year I hope to complete an 8 day trek in Peru .
Wishing you well Jimmy, and hoping that this was helpful.
 
Todo empezó cuando tenía veinte años [ahora tengo sesenta], con períodos en los que mi espalda sufría espasmos que me incapacitaban por completo. [Una vez me desplomé en un paso de cebra]. Más tarde, cuando tenía treinta, me hicieron una resonancia magnética y me dijeron que tenía una degeneración en la zona lumbar. Me las arreglé con analgésicos y relajantes musculares durante los ataques, tuve dos hijos y trabajé a tiempo completo, a menudo cojeando en el trabajo. Visité todo tipo de profesionales de la curación. Hace unos diez años, desarrollé un dolor en el pie y me dijeron que tenía una degeneración ósea grave en el pie, así que me operaron y me pusieron siete trozos de metal en el pie derecho. Luego desarrollé una bursitis grave en la cadera y dolores punzantes en las piernas cuando estaba sentada demasiado tiempo, especialmente en el coche. A medida que comencé el programa de curación y toda la lectura, el dolor comenzó a aumentar aún más y tuve dolor de muelas e hinchazón de una rodilla, pero sabía que tenía el TMS por el nombre y continué con mis actividades como todos los profesores sugieren.
El viaje interno para resolver todo esto ha sido bastante largo y no creo que haya llegado a ese punto todavía. Me sorprendieron las cosas que había reprimido. Un ejemplo menor es que el dolor en las piernas al conducir desapareció cuando me di cuenta de que no había querido mudarme de Londres y que estaba enojada con mi esposo por eso. Esto es realmente extraño porque me encanta el lugar en el que ahora vivimos y no quiero volver a mudarme a Londres ahora. Solo ofrezco esto como un ejemplo de que había otros aspectos más profundos y oscuros de mí misma con los que me topé.
Continuaré actualizando mis conocimientos durante el resto de mi vida. Actualmente estoy leyendo Back Pain Permanent Healing de Ozanich. Este año espero completar una caminata de 8 días en Perú.
Te deseo lo mejor, Jimmy, y espero que esto te haya resultado útil.
Me alegra saber de tu recuperación. ¿La bursitis también la sacaste de la misma manera? .tengo 32 años y llevo un año así. Hago diario pero sigo en busca tal vde historias para creer aún más. Aparte tengo inflamación n el sacro que también duele bastante

I am Christian also and I been praying to the Lord to show me is this horrible back pain I have is TMS, I believe what Dr John Sarno said and I am wondering myself if God is helping me thru e this but I have also so much doubt , I had 3 years of a lot of pain in both of my knees, I suffer so much and now is replaced by this back pain that start a month ago when I bend to my makeup table , is so weird, I am so stress, sad, worry for my children, I am scared , today is my birthday and I been crying praying to God to give me
a sign , a path , peace , I am so happy for you when you said you pray and God heard your prayers
