Day 1 Dealing with bladder and pelvic pain

[PrincessTippi2]

I’ve unintentionally been applying elements of TMS/ experiencing emotional/anxiety driven pain since I was a teenager.

First it started with panic attacks and heart palpitations at 19 although I will say some of it was hormone induced (atleast that’s what I believed)
Then skin problems, went on very restricted diet and say tons of docs to see how to fix/manage it
But I fixed it over time through meditation and telling myself I was okay!
Most recently all of the cumulated stress of my life has moved into my bladder
It started at the end of December and I felt like I had a UTI, went to 2 docs and they said I didn’t
Gave me antibiotics, and I actually developed a true uti off of not taking them properly
Went back on antibiotics, finished the entire course was deemed clear but the symptoms urgency pelvic pain ect stayed
So I read a bunch of stuff online particularly about IC. I wanted anything to describe what I was going through but was simultaneously fearful of the label it being chronic.
My symptoms come and go and sometimes I feel I can will them away but then I let fear and doubt back in.
I’m determined though. I’m not new to pain but this particular bout has been more difficult to deal with due to its placement in the body and how it’s disrupted my life and things I love/are important to me.

It's awesome that you've already proven yourself capable of healing TMS before, here's to the start of the journey

IC is TMS. If you have been thoroughly checked by a doctor and nothing is found, just keep applying your TMS principles. I dealt with the same thing and was seeing a doctor since they didn't find anything that was causing the pain. They then wanted to run a scope to see how it looked. It was at that point, I realized that nothing was going to change with it and I WASN'T doing that! Keep up the good work and know that you have healed once, you can heal again!

IC is TMS. Als je grondig bent onderzocht door een arts en er niets is gevonden, blijf dan gewoon de TMS-principes toepassen. Ik heb hetzelfde meegemaakt en ging naar een arts omdat er niets gevonden werd dat de pijn veroorzaakte. Ze wilden toen een endoscopie doen om te kijken hoe het eruitzag. Op dat moment realiseerde ik me dat er niets zou veranderen en dat ik dat absoluut niet ging doen! Ga zo door en weet dat je al eens genezen bent, dus je kunt opnieuw genezen!

What did you do when the pain was so afwul and the urge to pee was so high?

I really didn't do anything which helped me. Instead of going down that rabbit hole of doing the scope, which I googled it and it would have been very unpleasant-I decided to stop going to that doctor. I was dealing with multiple symptoms at the time and was being sent to all these different specialists and tests would come back that everything was normal. Nothing was making sense. Even if the scope has showed something like lesions-the treatment would have been the same-and the treatment wasn't much. All of this happened before I knew about TMS.

That response probably doesn't help you out as you are looking for someone that has this and has done something to "cure" it. Unfortunately that doesn't really exist because are all so different in the ways that symptoms present and how we respond to them.

I would recommend that you start your own post in the Support Forum asking these questions instead of asking on individual threads. You would probably get more of a response from those who are still active on this website. I highly recommend that you check out the SEP program on this website as well if you haven't already. It's free and it's where I started my journey learning about mind body symptoms.

Ik heb eigenlijk niets gedaan wat me geholpen heeft. In plaats van die ene endoscopie te laten doen – ik had het opgezocht op Google en het zou erg onaangenaam zijn geweest – besloot ik niet meer naar die dokter te gaan. Ik had op dat moment last van meerdere symptomen en werd naar allerlei specialisten gestuurd, maar uit alle onderzoeken bleek steeds dat alles normaal was. Niets klopte. Zelfs als de endoscopie iets had laten zien, zoals bijvoorbeeld laesies, zou de behandeling hetzelfde zijn geweest – en die behandeling stelde niet veel voor. Dit alles gebeurde voordat ik van TMS had gehoord.

Dat antwoord helpt je waarschijnlijk niet verder, want je zoekt iemand die dit ook heeft en er iets aan heeft gedaan om het te "genezen". Helaas bestaat dat niet echt, omdat de symptomen bij iedereen zo verschillend zijn en de manier waarop we erop reageren verschilt ook.

Ik raad je aan om een eigen bericht te plaatsen in het ondersteuningsforum met deze vragen, in plaats van ze in individuele discussies te stellen. Je krijgt waarschijnlijk meer reactie van degenen die nog actief zijn op deze website. Ik raad je ook ten zeerste aan om het SEP-programma op deze website te bekijken, als je dat nog niet hebt gedaan. Het is gratis en het is waar mijn reis begon om meer te leren over symptomen die verband houden met lichaam en geest.

Dankjewel! Ik hoop dat ik het kan herstellen.
