Progress??

Hi all, I seem to have gotten to a point where I have gained more control over how long my sciatica like pain lasts. When it would flare up it would last months 6-7 months being the longest constantly hating my life of pain and being stressful out as I wasn't normal and couldn't live a productive life but now I seem to have the power and strength to get rid of 90% of it in a few days (as it never is 100%). So that is great for me and the more it happens the more confidence I have that it won't last long. Now I have been experiencing more pain in my upper back and ribs which is expected since I have been doin more weights etc but it's been getting worse I'm not focusing on it as much as I used to the sciatica but let me tell you it packs a punch sometimes making hard to take deep breaths as everything is just super tight! So I think this is progress as weird as it seems and gives me more reason to believe its TMS which is hard for me as I live in australia and we don't have many practitioners in the country and was unable to get a proper diagnosis. I think that's always been in the back of my mind and would probably make it easier if I had a proper diagnosis. So is TMS on the run or is it tellin me I've got more work to do subconsciously??

 

Sounds like it's on the run so stay with the program.
Accepting Australia is a huge place and not knowing where you're based, you do have a gem of a tms practitioner in your land. Dr. James Alexander is based in Lismore, NSW. He's on the forum and here are his details and website:

He's a great guy and well worth contacting.
