Has anyone experienced the "movement of pain" to different places on one leg? This goes on all day for me. |

Yes my pain is moving all over my body, one placed to another. Don't feel alone. |

Yes, me too. In my case, the pain shifts from groin to hip, and anywhere between. Actually, I'm happy about this because it was one of the main things that made me recognize TMS. If I had realized this a few months ago, I probably wouldn't have done the expensive ultrasound tests that ruled out problems with ovaries, uterus, etc. After that, though, one day I just went, "wait a minute! The way this moves around, it can't be a structural problem."
I'm still working on all this, but find it helpful to stop repeatedly and recognize the movement of pain (or in my current situation, the pain going away, then reappearing later at a slightly different spot) as proof of the mind-body nature of the phenomenon. Lately since the pain moved more toward my hip, I started to wonder, "is this a structural problem in the hip?" So I have to remind myself that if it were, why was it somewhere else 3 days ago? |

in sarno's books he says that when the pain starts moving around it's a sign that the treatment is starting to work, so the brain moves the pain and comes up with a new symptom to further distract you. it may help to immediately think TMS with any new symptom unless you can prove otherwise. I had severe tooth pain after biting a seed a while back, it lasted for at least a week or two, finally I went to the dentist, he told me that the tooth had a root canal, was literally dead, and had no nerves that could produce pain. the pain went away almost immediately. remember, TMS can affect ANY organ or system in the body, don't be fooled by your brain! I've had a charleyhorse in my leg all day today for some reason, I know it's TMS, I just don't know exactly why, but I have a ton of things I'm stressed about, it could be one thing, or it could be everything, hopefully it will be gone tomorrow.

Hello Steffi,
I'm new to this forum and I was wondering if there was somebody here with monolateral leg pain. To be more specific, I have the same symptoms with you. There are almost always pain-free mornings and the pain worsens during the day. There is pain in my right leg (groin area, hip, inner thigh, quadriceps, in the back side of the thigh until the back of the knee, calf and foot) and the pain always shifts to these places. I have been having these symptoms for 10 months now, but only a slight improvement in pain (not so sharp as it was in the beginning of this relapse). I had the same symptoms (and many many more) SEVERE in the past but they went finally away. Keep your chin up! We will make it go away again. |
