Pain in the Past!
Life with chronic pain. Or, not!
This is my journey with pain, symptoms and sensations throughout my entire body for the last 23 years! Sometimes termed: Chronic pain, Migratory pain, Neuropathic pain, Spontaneous pain, Tension Myositis Syndrome (TMS), Perceived Danger Pain (PDP) and others. I will use TMS in this podcast.
After many years of doctor visits, X-rays, MRI's and co-pays, I never really had any real "diagnosis." It was more of a, "Well, it could be...."I came across a book from Dr. John Sarno and wondered if the description of TMS he gave was what I was experiencing.
After months of testing for myself, trials and errors, mental adjustments, and mind/body connections, it appears that after 23 years, I finally have a root cause!
My brain attempting to keep me safe from my emotional pain, by sending my body into physical pain as a "distraction." It sounded preposterous initially however, after months of personal analysis, it appears to be legit. I am documenting my personal experiences in: Pain in the Past!
Pain in the Past!
Episode 86 - New Pain Arrives in My Body!
Send Pain in the Past Podcast a Question:
In this episode, I talk about a new pain that has arrived in my right foot around the ankle. It hurts to bend the ankle walking and especially, going up and down stairs.
But again, this is what TMS does. Creates, moves, changes!
