Kansas City Star - On a Mission to End Pain

[Stella]

This article was in the Kansas City Star newspaper today. It is long but I found it fascinating and optimistic that some medical doctors are starting to acknowledge the role the mind plays in creating chronic pain in the body.

This is a classic case of kids with tms- hard driven- perfectionist and so forth.
Its a very good article- thank you Stella

A terrific article but the doctors still don't know the poor girl has TMS.
They come close to understanding but don't quite get it.
