fluid in the knee

Hi again Baseball and thanks so much for your reply.

I haven’t been at this long, though I had back pain for 15 years and of course that’s gone and now I have this. Go figure. I am in the middle of a divorce and we have a child and so my emotions all over the place. Just for confirmation that it is TMS, I went to see a really good PT today, you can only guess what he had to say. Yea your knee is swollen, maybe some old injury, probably a difference in the strength of the muscles
, over compensation etc. in other words, not MCL, ACL, arthritis, meniscus etc. that helps in so far as now at least I know I was right about this stuff.

You were right about NSAIDS, I took 3 the other day and they did absolutely nothing. Didn’t reduce swelling or pain.

The problem going forward is going to be how to fix it. I did a ‘push through cause it’s only TMS hike’ and it made it so much worse. Just seems like maybe when my divorce is over maybe things will improve as I start to improve. Until then, I must just have to suffer for a bit. My body is certainly trying to tell me something.

Hi Elle!
Do you have fluid in the knee is or is it simply swollen? I now have this also, my Dr. doesn’t want to do an MRI as he says stuff like this usually resolves on its own and insurance companies don’t want to pay for the imaging. He says he is 99% sure it is the meniscus but I never injured it. Also starting to feel something I the left knee now so I k ow it’s TMS but it’s so freaky because of the fluid in the knee and the pain.

Thank you! I had my doctor drian the fluids but it didn't help much, I am almost sure it is TMS though...
 
Look what I found in the mind body prescription book! Even though doctors Sarno refers to tendonitis of the knee here, a swollen knee can definitely be TMS!
