TMS testimonials for inability to empty your bladder cured?

Oh thank you so much! I was very lucky to have had the surgery. If I had lived in another century it would have been catastrophic (I probably would have died tbh lol...women died a lot in childbirth). I do think you situation is very much reversible . I don't purport to know anything about the prostate at all, but I think using this approach can take you very far into normalcy.

The retention of fluid is still symptom though, and a harmless one at that (since it does eventually leave your system through voiding at night). The question is what is the cause? The cause is due to the fact that you are tightening the bladder and essentially "holding it in" because you can't relax enough to relieve the bladder. That is muscle tension which is a direct result (a somatic pathway) of emotional tension that you are generating from the brain and your thoughts on a second to second basis. It makes sense that your bladder would wake you at night while you are not tensing as much. I remember driving myself crazy with all those voiding tests and hydrodynamic studies the doctors would have me do. All that did was make me focus and obsess more on the symptoms. Do you see how this works? It becomes a learned habit of the brain and body. Symptoms are symptoms...whether it be holding in urine, diarrhea, dizziness, swelling, pain, itching , burning, rashes etc. The question is what is the underlying emotional process and stressor casing the brain to continue firing these false alarm signals?

@miffybunny, the muscles should still be able to relax and go back to normal length/position once the emotional tension is resolved, correct?
For some reason I have this thought that maybe after such a long time for a muscle to be in constant spasm, the muscles actually forgot how to relax and work properly anymore. It is just a nonsense fear thought, right?

Thanks in advance!

The body always goes back to its default state of normal. The muscles won't stay tensed permanently. We aren't designed that way. The mind first, and the body follows suit. Lose the inner (emotional) tension, lose the body tension.

No I'm not a doc but I got rid of my pelvic spasms by relaxing. Same for any kind of spasm.

I suffer with the inability to completely empty my bladder since Nov 2014. In early 2015 a urologist diagnosed me with pelvic dysfunction. I was told I manifest stress in my pelvic area that tightens these muscles which is why I cannot empty completely.
I awaken 3 to 8 times every night, so I haven't had a good nights sleep in over 6 yrs.
Dr Sarno's book stopped my back pain simply after reading it approx 2007. And my post op hernia surgery pain disappeared in 2009 after the head of the hospital told me that pain cannot last this long and my mind has created a memory pathway. After I left his office, I have never had the pain again!
Why? Because I realized if my mind caused my former back pain and I got rid of it believing in Dr Sarno's theory, then this was the same.
Just this year I was told my bladder issue is caused by TMS, but I haven't had any relief yet.
One thing that would help a lot would be connecting with or reading about others healing for the same emptying issue using TMS.
But here or even googling this, I cannot find one testimony! Everything pelvic is only about pain, not about inability to empty.
Can anyone point me to testimonials? I need to wire my brain that indeed TMS will cure me for this condition.
Thanks!

Ayyy!! Good news brother! I had chronic pelvic pain for 3 yrs and started recovering from it in the beginning on 2021! And I’m here to tell you I had that annoying symptom! Burning, frequency, and you guessed it! Inability to fully empty my bladder! I’d start a decent flow then I’d stop in the middle or towards the end. Then I was just stuck with that annoying feeling that I didn’t fully finish peeing. It’s just your fear response bro. Don’t give it attention! No matter how painful or annoying do your best to not react to it! Take time during the day to feel your emotions then just go about your day! Even if you have to take that symptom with you. It took me a while… but that symptom too shall pass! :)
 
I am late to this thread but desperately could use some thoughts on my situation. I had cervical cancer in 2004 and with it lots of radiation and brachotherapy. Since then I have had issues with my bowels. 2 years ago, however, I began having urinary retention. Unable to fully empty my bladder. They say that due to the radiation, communication between my brain and nerves in my bladder is not fully working anymore. While I can urinate on my own, I don't fully empty. To that end I have needed to do self catheterization intermittently throughout the day which has created lots of UTIs. It's a vicious cycle. I've spoken to a doctor who believes it is TMS. But I'm having trouble believing that, since I had radiation and I have experienced the manifestation that comes along with it. Anything that you read about radiation in the pelvic area points to long-term side effects. I've even had a neuromodulator placed in my lower back to help stimulate the bladder, but that also has failed. Can I have so many issues and treatments to resolve the cancer but be left only with TMS at this point? Thanks in advance.
