Buttock Pain and TMS Success Stories
|
- Baseball65's story: Baseball65 describes how, despite being born with an L5-S1 fusion, one leg that is over an inch longer than the other, spinal stenosis and a herniated disc, he led an active and pain-free life, until experiencing muscle spasms one day at work. The pain progressed rapidly and led to a failed surgery and a nearly complete physical and psychological meltdown, until he read Dr. Sarno's book, saw himself in the pages and began taking his life back again.
- Mislorinj's story: Lori's story tells of her awful pain which she was told was due to her herniated disc. Thankfully after an appointment with Dr Sarno (in whose waiting room she had to lie on the floor!!) she began to improve and get her life back. Lori is a great advocate of jounalling to express and release emotions and has lots of good advice and tips in this post.
- Chris's Success Story: After four years of having debilitating pain in her buttock, Chris has been able to run twice a week since attending a TMS workshop. Her pain was so severe that she said, "At one point 3 years ago, I was entertaining the thought of just getting rid of my leg altogether; I figured a prosthetic leg with no pain was much more appealing than living the rest of my life in pain." By realizing that her pain was caused by her subconscious suppressing anger and rage, she has been able to overcome her chronic pain, and start living pain-free.
