I've had TMS "outbursts" on various occasions as an adult, the worst manifestation being "fibromyalgia" years ago which is what led me to Sarno and his theories. Once I discovered it I was out of misery.

Fast forward, this past fall I started having top of foot pain, then tons of swelling, then little nodules by the ankle. So I broke down and got an MRI. The MRI reveals "marked degeneration" of the tibialis anterior tendon, tendinosus, a tear, and tenosynovitis. I see no mention of these diagnoses on here indicating that they are fancy schmancy names for tms....

Sorry! pressed post to quickly....
I do know that tendinosus is the "chronic" version of tendintis, which sets off alarm bells, but I don't see mention in Sarno's work of these diagnoses. Any TMSers with personal experience of the above?

Thanks much,
Windy

Windy, was there an injury that caused it or did it appear out of the blue?

Tenosynovitis of the thumb, aka DeQuervain's syndrome, is a form of RSI, thus a form of TMS. So it could be, when found elsewhere.

Tom,

To my mind it appeared out of the blue, just speedwalking on a treadmill, no slip or fall. That's why I left it untreated in spite of the swelling .... I'm a little mad at myself about that, (typical!) but not very.

Given that, I would dx-timate that it could possibly be TMS, although only a fool would attempt to dx over the internet.
