Recovery from Digestive issues (LPR, Dyspepsia)

weakened sphincter. actually, it hasn't been well studied. some docs don't even think it is real. people recover from this....and i have known some...so it isn't a permanent condition. i believe it can be handled by some diet changes ( even with some strictly tms issues if one has a poor diet for instance, changes there will certainly help) and reducing stress. i am treating it as tms. it isn't completely gone but is considerably better.

 

I remember when I had so much back pain I couldn't even work and a doctor told me my pain was a structural problem. My l4 and l5 were touching. I even had an MRI picture to prove it. Thankfully after years of dealing with back pain a friend at work told me about Dr Sarno's work and I have not looked back since.

 

What about gum, palate pain from lpr ?

 

Hi Karim & everyone else. Thank you all for sharing. I am in a TMS LPR nightmare at the minute. Its nearly been a year since I started to develop a dry cough. Now I have irritation in my airways with every out breath, like a menthol type feeling, constant throat clearing and burping, even after water. I went to see an ENT who put me on meds and a diet. Nothing has worked and I have a camera going to down my throat to check it out next week as they said my throat was very inflamed and red at the first examination.

I had back pain for years and finally got on top of it with TMS. Now I have this and of of course am freaking out about cancer. I believe 90% it's TMS but that 10% is enough to cause horrible symptoms and mental anguish. It's so draining. The funny thing is I have no symptoms at night which I think says a lot. If it was structural and something serious I'm guessing I would be getting symptoms during the night.

Karim how are you doing and maybe we should help each other. Sounds like we have had similar journeys.

Cheers

Maz

 

I have ibs I think I don’t think I have ibs now

 

I have LPR. A mind-body doctor explained to me that the sphincter is influenced psychologically: TMS causes relax it and not close properly.

 

Hi, how come your teeth hurt?

 

My teeth hurt before finding TMS. I went to the dentist who said there was nothing wrong. He said he didn't know why they hurt. He suggested maybe sinuses.
It was from the unconscious muscular tension in that area.

 

That sounds like my teeth. I do have teeth that need crowns but that's not for a long time (according to my dentist). I have constant aches, pains and sensitivity but they're not coming from the cracked teeth. I'm going crazy over it. I thought it could be my sinuses but who knows?

 

I'll betcha it's from tension. Beware...once I got the all clear from the dentist after about a week the pain went away .....and moved to my throat!
It was even worse there.
Then I found Sarno. This forum and the old 20/20 segment.
And then my pain released and went away.

 

Too late. My original symptom was back pain after a heavy session at the gym (herniated disc according to my CT) and then I had wisdom teeth surgery. It all went downhill from there. The area near my wisdom teeth vegan burning and then it moved around my mouth to my molars. Fast forward to now (over a year later), I now have multiple symptoms. I'm stuck on the cause of it and why I keep getting new symptoms. I think my fear is creating and maintaining everything.

 

Went from serious loose bowels and digestive orders esp when getting ready for a root canal had a bad experience.

After that root canal was done i went away for a little trip to enjoy with my family. up until that point i was loose bowel and stomach issue. Let me just tell u when I was at that vacation spot for 3 days..i ate like a pig, junk food pizza and soda and alcohol. I didnt give a shyt anymore as long as i was with my family. i went down water slides and everything else...2 things i did different....ate yogurt (while on antibiotics for the root canal they did) and also relaxed for 45 minutes doing the SALT SPA treatment...basically you lay down in a chair and breahte in the salt in a quiet dark room. What happens next.... I pooped like a LONG LOG...a SNAKE..lol a perfectly good hard good lookin poop. lol excuse my sarcasm but the point is, no loose stool, no runny poop or diareah... it was seriously long and hard and flowed through... went on for this for few days. once a day.

Now i dont know if it was the yogurt, or the sea salt meditation i did that changed my body....id like to say that helped but what i think really did it for me was that i wasnt going to go to the dentist anymore.the worse part was done and the fear went away..once that happened i think my body calmed down by not giving a fuk anymore!

 

Personally, I think the "not giving a fuk" was the primary reason for the improvement. Surrender is powerful! Glad everything came out alright! LOL

 

Hi are you able to eat all foods now?
