I have been suffering from severe back pain for 6years. In February 2018 I couldn't take it anymore any decided to do some examinations to know what was really happening. The results didn't come as a surprise though I was stressed. The CT scan any MRI indicated that I had L5-S1 disk prolapse. At the same time my brother was in the hospital having undergone a surgery for the same. My sister and my mom where also diagnosed with the same more than 10years ago and have been managing their pain with strong painkillers and physio. So I knew it's all in the family. My main stress was that I am an international student doing Bachelor's in Nursing in Australia. I had to defer my studies for one year and go back to my home country for treatment as the neurosurgeon had said I might need to undergo surgery. In my country I underwent physiotherapy any hydrotherapy 5days a week. Mmmh.... Which I know it's not right. I was so determined to get well and go back to Australia to continue with my studies. After 4 months I came back to Australia. As I was doing my research on how to manage back pain, I came across Dr. Sarno's work .i listened to his lectures, read reviews on his books from people who have benefited any ordered his book online. To be honest it has really helped me. Now I know the pain was due to TMS. I am back to my normal life, 90% of the pain is gone, I go to the gym, can sit any stand for a longer time unlike before. I wanted to change my career from nursing but now I happy on February I will be going back to my course. I called my sister any explained to her about the book any as I am writing my friend is on her way to Kenya any I bought her this saving book to take to my sister. Last thing is that Dr. Sarno did a research about 20years ago in Kenya and indicated that TMS is not common in African countries. I come from Kenya and now there are so many people with this condition just that it's not known. This book is worth buying. Read full review
