| I have been a devout believer in Sarno. I feel like he saved my life. However, Sunday I got the worst pain in my life in both my legs, thighs, butt, and pins and needles in my shins and feet. I can't walk. Can anyone relate to this? I was prescribed muscle relaxants but it is not doing anything. I asked for pain killers today and the PA said I should be going to the emergency room, she wont give me anything. By the way my husband is typing this out for me. Does anyone have this? |

I started with Sarno for leg pain supposedly from herniated discs and stenosis. As soon as I began to conquer that, I developed exactly what you're talking about in my arms and hands. It was the worst pain I'd ever had. It's like your limbs are on fire. Nothing helped it.
I went to the doctor when it started (old conditioning). They wanted to do all kinds of tests. I made the appointment and cancelled it.
I used my new tools to realize that as a kid, when I was being abused, I couldn't push away my attacker. It took a few weeks and it was very frightening, but I finally pushed away what I was trying to push away.
Where are your legs trying to take you that you can't get to? What is seizing you? Those are the questions I would ask myself. Then get mad as hell and start kicking. I got the use of my hands & arms back by punching.
Good luck.

This is one fo those "attacks" that comes out of nowhere.
I had a severe one exactly 18 months after my first recovery.
Oddly enough,it was ALSO right aorund the Holidays.I got a spasm in my Mid back so sever that it hurt to turn...it was especially angering ,as I was certain it was TMS...I took lortab(vicodin) and went to work anyway...the pain subsided while I was a t work,but flared in the morning on the way to work,and on the drive home and all evening.
I immediately re-read the book,did some review and had an "aha" moment....this was the first year I had turned down working for someone who was like a second mother to me.I had worked for her every Xmas since I was a kid,but had a much more lucrative job working less hours.
tha attack lasted about 3 days.
The holidays are a minefield of TMS hazards.
Your Doctor sucks for not giving you any pain medication...go to a different Doctor.Period.
But,make sure you take a moment or 90 and sit down and figure out why this happened.
Have a great Holiday

Has anyone had sciatica with pins and needles below the knees all the way down both feet with stabbing pains in the thighs, shins, and butt and could literally not walk.
It's very frightening to me because I never thought I would have pain like this again.
The goodist in me tells everyone with pain about MBP and now I have pain that I cannot get rid of. It's been a week and I can't walk
I'm reading and reading MBP, I'm meditating. My daughter came home from school for two weeks and she wont be home again for a long time. I know this is one of the triggers but I cant seem to figure out what it is triggering.
Thanks,
Michele |

Perhaps you have a conflict: I assume she doesn't live with you always(coming back from school)
It might be " I want her to have a perfect time and it's my responsibility to take care of her every need"
(responsibility/goodist)
"boy,I feel(resent?) the pressure of having to change my routine to accomodate her" (subconscious and unaware childish rage)
and of course..." Oh,my god...this is my Baby and I'm not going to see her for a long,long time...what if I never see her again?"
(Unconscious fear unaware irrational)
just a possibility....Sarno says in HBP when an attack seems to come out of nowhere,Family dynamics is the first place to check.
you'll prevail...you're already on the case!
Merry Xmas! (it's past midnite here!)
