Hey everyone, first time here. For more than 2 months I have had vision changes that are really disturbing as well as headaches and a feeling of soreness around my right eye. It's like my eyes aren't focusing together correctly, I'm a bit light sensitive, and I have had a massive explosion of floaters in my right eye that are there constantly. At some point in the past two months I also developed tinnitus.
Disclaimer: I have had multiple eye exams, seen a neurologist, MRI, etc etc, everything comes back normal.
I have a friend who introduced me to the TMS world after she had daily migraine for a year and is migraine-free after TMS work. I've been told that my symptoms are "persistent aura migraine" since I do have a history of aura migraines, I've also been told they can be caused by my TMJ disorder. I am about a month in to learning about TMS and trying to look inward. I fit the TMS personality 100%. I am listening to the Nicole Sachs podcast, journaling almost daily, trying meditation techniques, I downloaded the Cureable app, and I am working with a therapist. My headaches seem to be a bit better but I am still having these 24/7 visual issues.
I am 100% certain that stress and long repressed anger and emotions fueled these symptoms, but because my symptoms feel more unique than something like back pain, I am having a hard time believing that this is really all TMS. I know it takes time for TMS work to get rid of our symptoms but I am starting to feel discouraged that after a month my vision still hasn't cleared up. I am looking into PT for my TMJ issues in case that could be contributing to this, doing massage therapy to ease muscle tension in my head, and going to a chiropractor because of neck issues I've had, and I am trying to figure out the balance of doing all of this and also doing the TMS work.
I'm really here seeking words of encouragement to keep going with the TMS work and would especially love to hear from anyone who has had issues with their vision!
