Violet, I understand. For me what brings back pain are psychotropic medications (Ambien for example or I had a rebound after I took a short course of opioid pain medication after a dental procedure**). Also not so much stress but more negative thinking. That negative and obsessive chatter. My point ...

Violet, Stephanie, I think there is a misunderstanding of what a mindbody syndrome is. A mindbody syndrome is not some psychological deficiency or feebleness. It is not imagined. The pain is not made up. We all suffer from mindbody syndromes all the time. Stomach problems when we travel. A tension h...

Ouch, What you are describing is textbook mindbody or somatization syndrome. Chronic pain triggered by a small physical incident during or shortly after a stressful period. Prof. Franz Alexander wrote in the classic "Psychosomatic Medicine: Its Principles and Applications" that you need 3 ...

Looking through your post history, as well as others you've referred to, I don't agree that those methods are sufficient enough on their own to address the diagnosis. How do you know? No amount of meditation or prayer (depending on what you believe, I guess) is going to resolve the issue. Where did...

Interesting stephanie.
Were you in contact with these patients for several months?
For how long was it effective according to them?
Will they repeat the procedure when the effect wears off?

So far, 95% of the women he has treated have said that their pain is completely gone and 60% of them have not experienced any side-effects. (Source: Dr. J. David Prologo) It is his own statistics. Maybe it is not as great as he said it is. What type of follow-up was there? It seems like deja-vu. Th...

rbzl, My main thread is here: http://www.pudendalhope.info/forum/viewtopic.php?f=36&t=6352 There is a lot of info on tmswiki.org (which I find fairly confusing but some of it is quite interesting). Her history of migraines/IBS preceded the 2013 incident by quite a bit, and there was nothing majo...

stephanies, I did not claim in my post that all cases of CPPS are due to a somatoform disorder. In the absence of any cause besides sitting, it is unlikely that surgery to release a nerve that is probably not entrapped will be of any help. Do you disagree with this statement? Surgery is serious busi...

lomlom,

lomlom, You suffered from migraines, IBS, and now pelvic pain. Migraines, IBS, and vulvodynia/clitorodynia are often linked to a somatoform disorder. http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC4033442/ http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC4253363/ http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC...
