Although I am still feeling the pain, it is less intense (no more up in the middle of the night pacing the floor and a simple ice or heat pack helps), I was hoping that I would be "cured" by now. I am still 100% convinced that it is TMS, but now I wonder whether I have some deeper psychological problems that I am not able to uncover.
Lots of stressors lately and no time to relax-always pushing myself. A difficult family member is visiting and that seems to have added to the flare ups. Read a bit of "The Work" and am pondering the Buddhist idea of it is not what happens to us, but how we react to things that matters...Life will always be full of stressors, so perhaps I need to form a new way of thinking about them instead of wishing them away all the time.
