I served 2 tours overseas in the Marine Corps, I am 35 years old and have suffered from chronic back pain since a vehicle accident in 2007 Iraq. I have suffered for 13 years and am sick and tired of this. I have leg pain, back pain, weakness, Problems going to the bathroom, haven't had a full night sleep in over a decade because of my pain. This most recent "flair up" has been so severe I have been shaking, sweating and puking from the intensity of my pain. My mental stability from this is at question. Anger, distancing myself, depression and hate are just the beginning... I survived the Iraq war and this pain I am living with is driving me to thoughts of suicide. Simply because I can't live any longer with this level of pain. I don't want to live if this kind of pain is what my life has become. This is ridiculous, pain of this level should never be the answer to back pain. I eat healthy, and am not over weight. I am truly at a loss, the VA has been aware of this for years. I'm done, over pain and suffering. Is there an answer??? Someone, anyone please.... I need help.

Dr. John Sarno has been on to this since the '70s, so really nothing new here. If you have persistent back pain, I suggest reading some of his books, for example 'Healing Back Pain'. Other good books include 'Back Sense' and 'Back in Control'. They're all relatively cheap on Amazon; you won't regret it. I was once bedridden with severe back pain, and I'm back running and biking now thanks to Dr. Sarno. :)

I got injured years ago doing a job that required much heavy lifting at difficult angles. The fractures I endured I like to think are healing. But other issues have occurred as a result of the trauma. Pain flares are still a reality.

I am a 24 year old and I was thrown to the ground and crushed until suffocation. Everyday is worse and worse with pain. Please help those in need with back-pain.

Or two slipped discs. I woke up with them one morning. After doing some research, I found out that's how it happens to most people. Was on a walker for a while because my legs didn't want to function; they felt like they were on fire. Cane for a year or so. Glad I never had surgery...the horror stories I hear.

He correctly points out that emotional factors are key in understanding both the etiology and chronicity of back pain (this can apply to many other forms of muscoskeletal pain as well). This was demonstrated many times including a study of airport baggage handlers which proved that job satisfaction (or lack thereof) was the primary predictor of back pain development. I am confused about his emphasis on disc pathology. I think studies have conclusively shown zero correlation with pain.

Has anyone found anything about rewiring brain pathways? According to one tape, this is key. The speaker said the brain keeps sending pain signals down the same pathway, because that is what it's accustomed to doing. But she doesn't say anything about how to actually accomplish this rewiring of pathways. I can't find Anything. Thanks! :)

Please don't determine your beliefs about chronic pain based on a story about baggage handlers and how much they like their jobs. The un-controlled variables in a pseudo-science study like that are infinite. Nothing of value can come from such a study. If you don't agree consider this: how many other complaints might you get from a person who had low satisfaction in their jobs? How many people might have exacerbated pain due to jobs that they hate. How many people will hide their pain if they love their jobs and don't want to lose their jobs? And on and on....

Dr. Marras correctly points out the pain generators can be identified in approximately 10 to 15% of cases. It is rather confusing then that he spends the curriculum time discussing disc and play degeneration and concludes that muscles are significant source of pain.

If pain generators in the spine are only correctly identified 10 to 15 % of time why do so many surgeries occur? The chance of fixing the pain is low and the chance of causing new pain is high. Yet we still see very little evidence or outcome studies for pain and surgery.

I am glad Dr Marras is open to exploring pain. I found this an interesting talk. It suggests to me when we feel 'up' about life there is more likely to be space between the joints. Conversely, when we feel 'down' about life there is more likely to be a contracting and limiting of movement. I notice while he talks he has a damaged left leg where to stay upright he has to put most weight on his left leg. However, in doing so he angles his pelvis and this has a knock on effect on his torso, shoulder girdle and neck. I am a trained Alexander Technique teacher and wonder, rather than keeping the pelvis level, if in angling his pelvis this kind of change of use on a regular basis might also promote damage to internal tissue. Perhaps both aspects can be considered when approaching physical/mental pain.

Do you still have pain after this video? I don't see in the video where anyone is given the slightest advice on what to do.

What about SIJoint? And why does it not get addressed in the back pain talks?

Nice introduction into emotional drive in pain centralization. Two things I found regrettable: 1) the 6 wk mark of chronicity. Not only is that a very narrow window compared to most studies, but his language was rather catastrophizing. I get that he's compelling urgent attention, but I think he might have made that a redline without explaining later patient expectation. 2) he should have also mentioned that damage to the disc has an unknown effect on pain causality, most people show up with disc damage on imaging without any symptoms. Again, this seemed a little critical for a talk about how emotions and beliefs affect pain. But, at minimum, he did open up the door for people to start learning more about the topic.

I’m just wondering how I can apply this to my own situation or should I even attempt to but it’s a very good video

@@towhomitmayconcern8866 everybody seems to believe that cannabis and hemp / CBD are now health foods and cure-all’s and the answer when anyone mentions currently using opioids for pain relief. THC is a drug like any other...just a different type. And it does help for some but not all people. I get zero relief from any Cannabis related product. One drug gets demonized and now THC is the cure to everything. And THC users now help to point out how anything else is now “bad”...some only get relief from traditional opioid treatments. It’s the difference between being bed ridden and actually being able to physically move and participate in a normal life....and the media has created a witch hunt. Addicts ruin the legitimate medical use and make others suffer😞.

Very disappointed in this talk. Disc degeneration is extremely common as people age with 88% of 60 year olds demonstrating this on MRI scans. If this were a primary cause of low back pain, then the percentage of the population experiencing low back pain would increase each decade; however, this is exactly the opposite of what the evidence shows. Low back pain peaks between the ages of 30 and 50 and then decreases steadily throughout the rest of the lifespan. Therefore, as degenerative changes (arthritis and degenerative disc disease) become more common, low back pain becomes less common. As a matter of fact, only disc herniations have been conclusively linked to causing low back pain, but evidence also shows that if a person remains active, disc herniations will resolve within 3-6 months. Furthermore, disc bulges, disc end plate changes, facet joint arthritis and disc degeneration were not found to be the cause of low back pain since the asymptomatic population shows all of these changes, which increase in frequency as the human body normally ages.

Guess got to cry it out idk but you know Japan really knows some benefits of crying as alot if employers make their employees cry to reduce stress and become more productive one crying session can reduce a week worth of stress and they're licensed therapists over their trained just for making people cry smh...and so well thats got to say something

Some, if not most chiropractors only take your money, he actually helps you. I don't know where you live but he's in LA, definitely worth it. 1st visit is $1200 as he does x-rays, sometimes MRI, adjustment, etc and every visit after that was $200 a few months back, so the price must be the same or slightly higher, not sure. Wish you the best! Hopefully this helps you somehow!
