Could CFS be a reflection of TMS ?

    Hi All,

    The more I am trying to understand my symptoms I get to the point that it is almost identical to the chronic fatigue syndrome.
    I have been trying for months to use the TMS approach unfortunately with no meaningful success.

    Could CFS actual be TMS ?

    Your comments are highly appreciated

    Yes Yehonatan79,

    CFS is definetely considered a "TMS equivalent" or just plain a "type of TMS." Many people have recovered from CFS using the TMS approach. You can search on the Wiki, search the success stories subforum, and also google "sarno CFS" I just googled and found this, for instance:

    https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCHefR5hgUWS4EQd5Z917fgg (RecoverFromCFS)

    TMS also has the name PPD.

    Here https://ppdassociation.org/symptoms (Symptoms — Psychophysiologic Disorders Association)
    it is listed as a form of PPD
    as
    "Fatigue Syndrome (CFS), (aka Myalgic Encephalitis or Systemic Exertion Intolerance Disease*)"

    I suggest you might continue to engage with this work, confident you will get better, and when you read "pain" substitute CFS, if this is what you identify your symptoms as.

    Also, this work is only appropriate if you've eliminated any structural or systemic causes with a physician. You want to know that you don't have something quiet treatable with standard medicine, that you're missing!
