Hi,

I have suffered from numerous TMS manifestions in the past... back pain, RSI, IBS... however with a recent trip to a ENT, I have now been told I suffer from "Vasomotor Rhinitis".

A quick look on the internet informs me that this is "Inflammation of the nose due to abnormal dilation and constriction of the blood vessels in the nose. The exact cause of vasomotor rhinitis is unknown. It may be a hypersensitive response to a dry atmosphere, air pollutants, spicy foods, alcohol, strong emotions, or some medications."

Note the "Strong Emotions" bit.

I guess it common sense for me to assume that this is another TMS manifestion?

Any time I see anything ending in "itis" whose description includes "exact cause ... unknown" I think TMS.

You don't use Afrin or similar nasal spray, do you? That stuff can cause this.
