Day 1 Fighting Chronic Migraine

Hello, I am starting with day 1. I’ve had headaches for about four years, basically constant, sometimes worse and sometimes better. I’ve tried different medicines, had the tests, and nothing has really helped.

TMS makes sense to me; however, I do have some fears and doubts. What if this doesn’t work? I am going through Unlearn Your Pain and using the Curable app, but I’m also taking supplements and using a Cefaly device for treatment. I am trying to change my thinking - I will be a chronic pain survivor. I will be a chronic pain survivor.
 
Hi there
I'm in a similar situation to you and on day four of learning but day five actually working through the program. I have had migraine type headaches recently and since I was nearly made redundant. Prior to this I have had sciatic pain for about 12 years. So getting new symptoms is what helped me discover the program. There's no physical reason for the neck pain that I'm getting other than my workplace scenario. It sounds like you and I both know technically what's going on with ourselves in regards to TMS, we just have to convince the rest of our brain. I definitely feel as though I am moving forward. I noticed last night the night before going back to work from a few days off at the tension picked up enormously. Recognising when these things happen psychologically is very important. Submerging yourself in this program feels like the right way to go.
All the best Alex
 
I recovered from chronic migraines over 10 years ago using the tms strategies. You can read my success story by clicking on my avatar. I hope it inspires you. Recovery is possible.
 
Hi! I am completely symptom free from migraine for over 1.5 years after finding my TMS doctor on this website. She specializes in migraine and is a former patient and such a doll. Please look for my success story! Best wishes to you -- I hope you find peace and healing, blessings. I'm back in grad school now and have a bright future ahead.
PS I had been sick for decades and decades, I never thought Id get well tbh, means everything
