You don't need to apologize for anything--unless YOU want to. This is the internet and you can say anything you want to. The only one who can censor you is Dave, the owner of this site, and he's never banned anyone as far as I can remember. Being overly or needlessly apologetic is a TMS GOODIST personality trait--practice acts of non-goodism to cure you of your TMS--as long as you don't commit any felonies or break the 10 Commandments.
Cheers,

Tom,
Giving advice about a golf swing on a tennis forum doesn't make much sense.
I see Om Sharma talking about homeopathy - and I don't like it. And I know, I'm just as guilty both on this forum (talking about food intolerances) and on another (an IBS forum) where I've tried in vain to inform sufferers about TMS.
The apology stands.... |

Hi All,
Thought I'd update you about my health and really could use reminders.
My physical symptoms continue; almost 4 months now; stomach cramping after eating / digestive issues / cramps signaling need for bowel movement.) The main difference is I'm less fearful and just sort of deal with it because I've now had every major test done, including:
endoscopy (showed gastritis).
Ultrasound
CT Scan
Colonoscopy
All tests ruled out major problems, obstructions, or parasites.
I've continued taking omeprozale .20mg daily as prescribed, because on rare occasions when I stop it my symptoms seem to worsen.
Emotionally what's happening? A few minor stresses; dating a girl I have mixed feelings about....financial concerns. Nothing earth shattering.
I'm still not believing it's TMS. Thoughts?

If the tests didn't find anything structural then it's TMS. For symptomatic relief if you're constipated eat a lot of garlic and drink a lot of coffee.

Switters,
You're not committed to this.
Taking omeprozale and having continued doubts are doing nothing for your belief system.
I can see that you want to pin your hopes on something else, but all the tests you've had reveal nothing, but mild gastritis.
Commit yourself. Let go of your doubts and give TMS a real go. There's plenty of great information, advice and gems here, but unless you change your mindset, the words you read will count for nothing.
You have an opportunity to make huge changes to your life. You are part of a small percentage of the population that has become aware of TMS. You now need to experience the POWER of TMS. Now is the time to put your negativity aside, commit, refocus and stand up to anything your "brain" throws at you.
