(crossposted to Dan's follow-up success story post here too http://www.tmshelp.com/forum/topic.asp?TOPIC_ID=5301)

Hi all!

Dan's story was so inspiring that I reached out to him and he agreed to share his story with me AND record it for others to hear* as well! My main motivation was that my wife has numb and painful hands, leading all the way up to her elbows, which never goes away and is always present 24/7, similar to Dan. The first step in this journey is hope, or at least a glimmer of hope to learn more, so that is my goal, to give my wife hope that this could be worth learning more about (I have had some success with backpain so far). A bonus to this interview is that Dan shared he also had sciatica, which my wife suffers from frequently too!

* It was supposed to be a video recording so you will hear mention of things that you should be able to see but it ended up being an audio recording, so that is why. We may do another one that is video soon, and I'll post back if/when that happens!

If anyone else has RSI my story is here: http://www.tmshelp.com/forum/topic.asp?TOPIC_ID=3880

I wrote that in 2007, with a small update in 2009. I've been pretty much RSI-free for 14 years - YES 14 YEARS!

In those years I've mostly worked as a programmer (so a lot of keyboard usage). I've also spent a lot of time gaming on my PlayStation (now a PlayStation 4).

I've had 3, maybe 4 relapses but I suspect all were brought on my viruses making my joints a little stiff.

Right now I have tinnitus, but I'm applying the same techniques to shift that.

I would say that my TMS equivalent symptoms are largely caused by unexpected criticism and rejection. Lately I have been psychologically battered by some awful job interviews ("you're no good - we can't possibly hire you, even though you've been coding for 20+ years").
