I just realized I had posted this in a wrong forum, so I duplicated it and posted it again here.

I am just wondering if anyone thinks or has info on a heart condiditon that can be caused by TMS? I have been told I must have had a heart attack but there is no evidence of it, ie: scar tissue. My eject fraction is low 35-40%. I believe, it is the cause of my fast heart rate when I exersise. My sleeping heart rate is 48-55 beats per min, sitting 80-95, but when I try and jog 11 min mile, it goes to 165 beats per min. I have let it go to 180 beats per min if I sprint a bit. My cardioligist almost stokes out when I tell him this.

My cardioligist stated that my injection fraction will not get better, but the heart is a muscle and with exercise it should get better, any muscle get stonger with exersice. So, i am confused. After reading Dr. Sarnos book and understanding that tms pain is caused by low oxygen levels to certain body parts will cause spasms. If your heart has been deprived of oxygen it would damage it without causing scar tissue.

I have been doing my 3 mile runs, with my heart rate 15-20 beats per min faster, than what my max heart rate for my age should be, for 3 months now. After reading Dr. Sarnos book I have recovered from 6 years of low back pain, migrain headaches and severe heart burn. These conditions have improved 90%. Before I had to walk with a cane to get around, this was June 1st. 3 days after reading Dr. Sarnos book I started my 3 mile walk / run/ sprint exersice program. I don't have migranes anymore and have had heart burn 5 times.

Anyway, I would love to hear from anyone who has experianced improved heart performance after acknowledging tms.

Thanks and sorry for the long winded question.

Yes,

I have been diagnosed w/ atrial fibrillation which I am reasonably certain is TMS. Still, it is hard to fully ignore when the heart is involved.

Thanks, I agree, it's hard to imagine tms causing the problem, but it sounds plausible.

Funny, this came up. I just had heart surgery; it was ablation surgery to burn away extra nerve tissues that were causing afib (irregular beat). The operation was a success; they found four extra pathways in my heart. Had the same thing done 10 years ago to fix SVT (regular, but HARD, heartbeat). For me, this was not TMS.

Nightwing,

The degree to which you are monitoring your heartbeat suggests a bit of preoccupation/obsession that is the hallmark of TMS...I know because I do the same thing. Plenty of people can get their heartbeat up to 180 if the exercise load is high enough. Cardiologists seem to be most concerned w/ the amount of artial blockage.
