Posted - 03/09/2006 : 13:21:59 Hello - has anyone ever experienced pain bouncing contiually around areas of the body. A little background: I've always had a bad back and about 3 months ago, I had an extreme flare-up of lower back pain. Tried dhiro, accupuncture and finally started reading Sarno. It made sense and through work, I was back to normal, mountain biking and surfing. Now recently (within the past week), I've been getting pains throughout my body. Not real stabbing pains, but more like a dull pressure that last a short period than move on. The happen mostly upper body, chest area and arms. I have a feeling it's TMS and I'm trying to apply the same principles, but I get anxiety when its up in my arms & chest, (thinking heart attack). I've been to a cardio and everything's fine, but its still hard to fight that inital panic when its constantly bouncing around. At least with my back, it was something that I could focus on and laugh at. Sorry for the long story, but any help would be appreciated. - Chris |

I feel it like a wrong direction energy flow. I think that I can have blocked chakra. m |

Posted - 03/10/2006 : 06:21:35 Thanks for the response. I feel like a dope because I think I understand whats happening, but every once in a while I get the "Uh-oh, whats hppening now!" feeling. I guess persistence is the key. Thanks again. |

Posted - 03/09/2006 : 20:07:59 Joe is correct.
There have been several postings on the forum regarding the pain moving around.
I believe all involved with this situation took it as a very positive sign. It is the age old story that we have accepted Dr. Sarno's TMS diagnosis on an intellectual level but not yet completely on the emotional level. Read pp. 77-78 of HBP.
In my case, I was proceeding nicely when the pain started moving around. It was panic time. In retrospect, it was a good sign in that I was near the end of the battle.
Think of it as a positive situation. Recognize the pain, soreness whatever as harmless and temporary.

Posted - 03/09/2006 : 15:27:32 Hey Man. I laughed when I read your post. The same thing was happening to me last year when I initially got rid of my neck pain. I started getting pain in my chest intermittantly, then left knee then foot then chest. Honestly I was laughing at myself. It felt like a pathetic attempt by my baby brain to find a foothold in some other area and I just kept sort of mocking myself, saying like, come on where else can you/I give me pain. Just tell the brainpain to go away.
