Has anyone with 24/7 symptoms recovered? Pelvic pain, nerve symptoms.

I'm curious. That's what I'm dealing with. I have some symptoms from the moment I wake up, to the moment I fall asleep. Hard to find safety in this, but I will try my best and commit to TMS and neuroplasticity.
The 24/7 is mainly this crawling, burning feeling allover the left side of my body, especially in clitoris, leg, arm and lower part of the face. My skin isn't really that sensitive to touch however, it feels more like an internal feeling, except my genital area is oversensitive and "reacts" to touch with pulsating etc.

My brain scan was normal. I've had these symptoms for 2 years and despite many doctor visits they never sent me to a nerve conduction test so that's something that's still on my mind and I'm afraid something might come up there (my initial symptom was pelvic pain, then pudendal came along, overtime spread) but I'm done with the medical system... Many doctors brushed me off because I'm young and not in "crippling" pain according to their standards I guess.

 

Yes.
I still have some of them but they don’t bother me anymore. Over time they are fading as I do the TMS work. The symptoms of crawling (sometimes described in other ways) comes Ang goes for me. Sometimes it happens as tightness begins to let go, but I can occasionally get if if I’m stressed and things tighten again.
So basically, it’s just my mind letting me know that my body is responding to my thoughts, and emotions. Your symptoms sound very much like TMS.
Dr. Sarno talks about TMS being benign, and “it can’t harm you” in his books to assure us that we can find safety in his words. Read his books and cling to the knowledge and assurance he imparts.
The fears you have are just thoughts. Sometimes we begin to fear our own thoughts about fear. This is why reading a book by Claire Weekes is essential. She explains what to do with the thoughts in so many situations: sleeping, waking…
It takes time and patience with yourself to work through these new concepts, but you’ll get there.

 

@Cactusflower thank you for replying. May I ask how long you've been doing TMS work and if you still have some symptoms daily? I am afraid that I won't ever have a day where I feel normal again.

I will buy the book, as many people are recommending it. Thank you.

No, my dear. I will not answer that question because it gives the asked a lot of ammunition for self-pressure via timelines and fosters worry and anxiety.
We ALL thought we’d never heal at first.
I will tell you my goal is to do kneeling paddle boarding and kayaking. These things are both physically and mentally challenging for me. I have never been an ocean person because I grew up on lakes. I don’t understand ocean currents. I am afraid. I’m older, and out of shape and working up to these activities. I’d love to be out there right now, sun and salt air, but am practicing kindness and patience towards getting to my goal. I am focusing on all the small wins that make me feel better in my heart and spirit. Conquering anxiety, learning to deal with worry, meditation for a busy mind, finding more inner peace, being confident within myself because that helped my confidence knowing I am overcoming current symptoms, and as I go along, marveling at how much the symptoms mean less to me and begin to fade.
Focusing on the timeline, as you will learn is a kind of fight within yourself. It works against you. It’s perfectly fine to look forward to the day you have few symptoms or they no longer bother you, but constantly measuring yourself against someone elses yardstick is self-defeating.
Recently there was a woman here who did some journaling -not much, and her symptoms vanished quickly. Others take time.
This does work, there is much evidence it does.

 

The timeline is your worst enemy, as I am learning personally. I get so angry at not being healed already, why were others just able to read the book and be fine? I realized how much that was ramping up my brain and the pain. Working now on just "wearing it loosely" as Nicole Sachs calls it. It's not easy at all.

 

Rusty! In just a short time, you are becoming wise.
