I just got Dr. Sarno's book Healing Back Pain last week, read it through and through and have been starting to feel some relief from intense pain over the past four days. Today, however, I had some shoulder and back pain that, while not as bad as previously, was still bad enough to make me feel very uncomfortable. I know I am anxious because I haven't been able to go to work for two weeks and am very worried about money. Does Sarno's treatment mean I should have slow and steady relief or are setbacks part of the process? I don't see it mentioned in the book.

The recovery process is often sporadic and rocky. You will likely have set backs and periods of progress for some time, before you begin to level out. Stay the course and it will be worth it in the long run. Best - Sensei

Hi JG,
Recovery from TMS pain is a process not an event, so you need to take a long term view of your recovery. As long as you are getting better on a week by week or month by month basis, you are on the right track. Also do not be alarmed if your TMS pain moves to different locations at times. This just means that TMS is trying to set up shop in another location as a distraction since you are making progress. Overall, try not to set a timeframe for recovery, let it take whatever time it needs and in the end you will win, just like so many before you have won.
Take care, -Stryder |

Are setbacks okay?
