When one says "I'm 80% pain free" what does that mean? You can see my perfectionism in the question. Objectively, I would have a numbered list as Dr. Sarno suggests on p.143 of DM (Divided Mind). As these manifestations vanish, I would check that item off the list and do the math. But, alas, I have not done this. Perhaps I should. So, if I listed 100 nasty items dredged from my "basement" and 80 of them right now no longer exist, then I can claim to be 80% pain free (for that moment, hour, day...). Subjectively, I feel great today, yet the few kinks here and there...well...how to quantify them? Why worry, right? [/quote]   Check here to include your profile signature.
