May I make a suggestion
If anyone wants to make comments about my beliefs, politics, lack of intelegence, intransigence, lack of humanity, cruelty to old ladies and kicking dogs, that we take it to the "...Quackwatch" thread where it seems to have started.
I'm getting a pinched nerve, in my c-6/c-7, having to jerk back and forth from all the threads that this TMS "pissing match" is leaking into. Let's try to keep it in one latrine. I find it really intersting that my "TMS urinary urgency" has resurfaced of late--what a crafty gremlin--but en-garde, I'm keeping my Flowmax handy.
I don't think I have made any personal attacks on anyone, not even Peter McKay. I have commented on some cultural icons and politicly hot-button topics like, that pot smoking fire-walker Andy Weil, the down-fall and decay of my fair home city of Frisco, (I know it's blasphemy to call it that and I am a blashphemer), the positive properties of nicotine as a great relaxant, versus the addictive properties and anti-social consequences of pot.
Taking pot shots here frightens the women and children and scares away the tourists. So can we take the friendly barbs, back-handed compliments, personal attacks and all that fun stuff to the "...quackwatch" thread which seems like an apt place for it? |

Hi Gang,
Only 1/2 kidding. Watch out what you wish for--you might TMS get it.
The "TMS urinary urgency" is a real symptom I developed a couple of days after refering to the "...quackwatch" thread as a "TMS pissing match"--no kidding, dead serious.
I found it really amusing. When you get beter at TMS'ing, it becomes a game between you and the Gremlin . You get to play it rather than it playing you!
As a 58 year old male, I have ocassional urinary urgency. The topic has come up on this board in the past. From what I understand of it, most men get prostratitis and go to the grave with it but don't die from it. That's what all those TV commercials are about--"...gotta'go, gotta go, right now.." It's only a problem when you're on I-5 and a hundred miles from the closest rest-stop. I now arm myself with a Flowmax or two and...no problem.
You can also buy mini-urinal containers that collapse and are pocketable. Haven't tried that one in the real-world yet, but can be sure you guys, (they have 'em for gals too!), will be the first to get t.t.'s, consumer report's test results. I can hardly contain my urgency to try mine out on my upcoming long road trip in search of the elusive grass courts, (to play on-not to smoke).
Thanks to all for your concern about my c-6/c7 and your well wishes will certainly stave-off the TMS neck gremlin, I'm sure. I've had that one before and am 100% cured but it was no fun.
Cheers, and have a fun 4th of July, tt

Tennis Tom you are the best.
You have a unique choice of words that can be very amusing.
Dr. Sarno, in his new book, refers to urinary urgency. He believes that it is one more manifestation of TMS.
Allan.
