Day 1

At the beginning of this year, I declared that I would cure my headaches once and for all. I've had a headache every single day since I was a little girl (sometimes minor, sometimes severe). I've seen many doctors and was diagnosed with Lupus about 6 years ago. Now, every doctor I see blames my symptoms on Lupus.... I do not. Quite frankly, I don't really believe that I have it but it's hard to argue with them sometimes. I've also had low back pain since my husband and I started trying to conceive but have not been successful. I know this is not a coincidence. My ego wants this process to be quick and wants to "do it right" but my true self knows to be patient. I predict a few conversations between them in the future. This post is my first step in this new process of expressing myself. In the past, I would have judged myself as complaining and annoying. Now, I am courageously sharing myself and openly asking for support. x
 
Welcome, Jamie. Headaches were my main TMS symptom too, but they are mostly gone, and even on days where I feel some mild aching it is not the kind of thing that consumes me like it used to.
 
Hi Jamie. Welcome to our group.

I have had a headache pretty much every day for the past 18 1/2 years, so I can definitely relate. Mine started after a car accident where I sustained a slight "whiplash" injury. When my headaches continued, I was told, "whiplash injuries can haunt you for years." Now I know that is hogwash!

I'm glad that you found us! :)
 
hi Jamie. Happy you are expressing yourself and looking for support.

healing takes as long as it takes!
