    I have Small Fiber Neuropathy. I am hoping this helps with the prickling, itching, burning, cold and hot sensations on my skin. It’s mainly in my thighs but the prickling and itching sensations are all over. It feels like I’m sunburned and little fleas are biting me all over when I get super stressed out. I also have burning in my right foot that comes and goes. Hoping for healing. Anybody else have any weird skin sensations or symptoms? Mine was apparently caused by an overdose of Vitamin B6 years ago.

    Not common to have a structural and mind body issue? Well im one of them. It is possible and maybe thats why I'm treated like an anomaly by every person i see, im living it, dr injury to my bones severe bone pain twisting from skull down, pain daily uncontrolled for a decade, that led to no sleep, broke me down as uncontrolled chronic severe pain taps our stress response system/hpa axis, it was non stop chronic pain which is a stress plus other added stress from that like trying to wkrk full time and care for my son when i couldn't operate on pain and no sleep, put on benzo, benzo couldn't keep up with it all, bemzks affect adrenals and nervous system, i hit tolerance, was in fight or flight, my body started reacting to food, severe pain, a pandemic was going on, my spouse turned against me, i lost mt abilty to go to my body work drs, in fight or flight with medical trauma my gi shut down, long story short ive developed trauma and PTSD and severe somatic issues and my body is highly sensitized the more I've learned and went thru, failed bkwel preps and treatment's to get gut moving, now im paralyzed in fear and my body reacts to the fear of what is going on and what i feel and ive seen it calm if there ever what i thought was hope though the stool js still stuck in me i look 70 lbs not sleeping injury so still have chronic pain, im slowly dying, you ARE able to have both, betw injury, trauma, xanax wd, im in a life or death state now, my brain got rewired from symptoms and trauma during pandemic times of my issues, there's more you guys need to learn

    What about people with long COVID experiencing POTS? Or people who got vaccinated and have adverse reactions that align with long COVID symptoms also??? The FLCCC is treating patients and running inflammatory panels on them and finding a lot of damage to people's vascular system. This virus damages the endothelial function and causes clotting to occur in order to repair the damage being done at a cellular level. So I understand people with fear and anxiety related disorders were being affected worse, but I'm curious what the underlying mechanism is behind that. I started having these terrible symptoms in spring of 2020. Never had sinus like symptoms. But I did for sure get acute COVID really bad in spring 2022 and could barely walk my joints and knees hurt so bad. I went into the ER for tachycardia I could not get to lower, severely elevated blood pressure, vertigo.. basically what seems like what I call a POTS episode that usually last for 6-8 hours straight until I end up in the ER from dehydration etc. My lab work all came back abnormal and showed signs of major infection. The Dr dismissed me and said if I wasn't having sinus or respiratory symptoms, they don't do anything for it. I was shocked. My lymphocytes we're so low and my monocytes and neutrophils we're very high. But he said I wasn't having normal acute COVID symptoms cause it was all POTS symptoms along with stomach ache, and joint aches... So bad that I was barely able to walk so I had to be put in a wheelchair for all the testing. Never had it as bad as then. But it retriggered the vertigo symptoms for about a week. The only good part about going to the ER is getting fluids cause these episodes cause dehydration from sweating and fluids coming out every end for hours straight. It feels like rolling panic attacks one after another that come on for no reason, even waking me up out of a deep sleep at times. But they cause severe vertigo to the point that most motion makes me dizzy and feel disoriented. I got tons of ear aches as a kid and do have high frequency hearing loss. And the tinnitus symptoms don't bother me too much. But the distorted sounds do. Not being able to understand or hear ppl is frustrating. But none of these nervous system symptoms started until after COVID. Since all these symptoms can be caused by vascular disorders and acute COVID causes vascular damage and tissue damage, then why are you saying long COVID is just a mind body disorder?? There is actually physical damage to the tissues. My MRI showed damage as well. And research is showing the same.

      Bc you clearly had a physical/structural damage right after or during the infection, which is normal. Dr Shubiner and all other TMS practitioners have said over and over that once you get all structural damage ruled out, then you rule IN mind body. Sorry you had such a hard time, I think regardless structural or not, it’s always a good idea to calm down the fear and respond calmly to these symptoms

I’m just more apt to dismiss the pain. I’m tired 😂

So this is not TRUTH but a Packer lies! "Relieve Chronic Pain with Lin Health's TMS Treatment Based on Dr. Sarno's Work. Tension Myoneural Syndrome (TMS) is a condition that causes chronic pain in the absence of structural damage. Dr. John Sarno believed that TMS pain was caused by repressed emotions. Lin Health's program is based on Sarno's work, helping individuals identify and address repressed emotions to relieve TMS pain and other types of chronic pain, with the support of a personal pain recovery coach."

    YES!!! I saw Dr Stracks about 10 years ago, and I recently went to see him because I have been experiencing the same symptoms recently. There could be a physical reason (thyroid) and I so appreciate "making sure there's nothing serious medically going on and ruling that out" big blood test! And it's sort of the good news/better news - it's MIND/BODY/SPIRIT. Ahh...hope~
