    Has it ever! First the old sites flared, some so dramatically I almost quit the program. But I hung in there. Now my brain is trying a few new spots. Theses are a lot tougher, because with the old spots I can say, "Been there, done that." The new ones trigger that last bit of fear: the voice in my head that says "What if everything else is TMS but this one is physical? Even life-threatening? maybe I should go to the doc just to rule out_____."
    The overall picture, though, is that I'm moving with more ease and more confidence than I have in years, and maybe that's what my brain is worried about: if I leave behind my symptoms, how will it protect me?

    Same thing, new spots. Been there done that is the way to go! Focus on something else and do what's needed in your life.
