Day 3 Doctors told me this is forever

[gunttta]

Every day I go over and over the fact that doctors told me I have idiopathic neuropathy or I should wait for a disease to appear.

All my symptoms appeared after severe chronic pain when I couldn’t find what was wrong with me. It was endometriosis. Then this happened.

I want to forget all what the doctors said. They never followed my timeline, they never understood my stress. I developed severe tingling in legs which got better but since my last visit to doctor it got way worse. God, please help me and cure me. My life feels like a never ending nightmare ridden by pain.

Many doctors are fools, high on their egos, emboldened by societal worship. They are acting on incomplete information, in a faulty system that prioritizes profits over health and welfare.

they were wrong about my idiopathic neuropathy. Assuming you’ve already been extensively worked up, they’re wrong about yours.

faith in a higher power is more than okay, but you need to begin the process of having faith in yourself, of saving yourself.

I’m reading Alan Gordon’s book and I have nerve twitching in my face when I hear the word “pain” and him talking about it.

how did you overcome the pain with your neuropathy?

You are on a crazed mission leading you nowhere, right now. You’re letting your anxiety overtake you. Take a deep breath and slow down. People keep answering your question (on other threads) but you won’t listen.

#1- we all think you have TMS.
#2 It doesn’t matter what kind of TMS you have, it is all healed the same way: with time and hard work.

If you’re on this forum to find quick answers, you won’t find them. It is journey of discovery. Look into things and learn. Apply them to your life. Get a therapist. Read Sarno every day. Start doing JournalSpeak with Nicole Sachs. Finish the Structured Educational Program. These are a few ideas. Everyone’s individual path to healing is different.

Ask us questions as you go along about the work you’re doing. But, do the work.

Please try to relax with your symptoms—no matter how hard that seems right now. You will have them for quite a while. This road isn’t easy. But it’s the true answer to your problem. And it’s possible to achieve.

First and foremost: if you don’t at least partly believe you have TMS, nothing you try will work.

Wishing you healing and blessings.

how did you overcome the pain with your neuropathy?

My neuropathy has zero impact on my life, it has never materialized into an autoimmune disease or any other disease, it is just there. I’ve overcome crippling scrotal sensations as a result of this work, crippling stomach pain, RSI, knee pain. Do I still have issues? Of fucking course. I’m in the midst of a terrible TMJ (TMS) flare that has greatly affected me. having constant looping thoughts. But they have not broken me. Because I’ve seen the results of this work, because even though this past week I’ve strayed from the course, I know I will overcome this. That I deserve to overcome this.

my friend you are where we all were early in the game, full of doubt and panic, you’re too new to have seen results or acquired evidence, so you doubt that this will work for you. This doubt is normal. This doubt is expected. It all sounds too good to be true. This life has been hard for us, we’ve had belief and optimism and joy beaten out of us. But we deserve better than this. You just need to believe enough to start. And then once you start you begin to see results.

Thank you. I’m glad you’ve found some relief.

Actually I take the nerve twitching in my face as a good sign because that means my brain is subconsciously reacting to fear. It wouldn’t have happened otherwise. I was curious not anxious.

I recently started doing some intense breath work combined with meditation and after that my neuropathy goes down. I’m hopeful, but still at the very beginning. There are some good days coming for us.
I find breath work so healing. You can really visualize letting the fear go, and I ask myself, what’s behind the fear? Getting curious.

Wishing you all the best.
