I have had the worst year health wise that I've ever had...and I've had some doozies in the past!
Spent all of Feb. in St. Luke's Hospital and was left with a body that was attacking itself, causing horrible swelling and pain in every joint and anyplace I have a bone.
The final diagnosis, due to the symptoms they have watched happen, has so far been a combination of RA and Inflammatory arthritis, although my blood work is all over the place, and shows nothing definitive. Scans show that I am bone on bone in every joint, and my neck and back are ravaged by the arthritis. I need every joint replaced and a rod in my neck to stabilize it. I've been told that there is no help for the pain, and it's just going to continue to get worse and worse.
This has left me pretty much bedfast, only able to walk short distances, and unable to lift anything heavier than a quart of cream.. I fall asleep sitting up, always exhausted.
I was ready to give up when my best friend mentioned seeing a post from a friend we went to church with for over 30 years. She (Danielle) and her husband (Anthony) opened their clinic, Well Spring Regenerative Health, earlier this year. I figured I had nothing to lose, and at least they would CARE about helping me. So, I made an appointment for Oct. 13th, and allowed myself to begin to hope that I might find help for this pain.
When I walked in, I was greeted with big smile, asked if I'd like coffee, tea, water, and a snack, and the atmosphere was relaxing and caring.
The patient who was alreadygl waiting in the waiting room told me how much she had been helped by the treatments, calling them "life changing".
I was called back, examined, everything was explained, and the treatment began. The treatment itself gives pain relief while it is happening, and I talked to the other patients there who were also receiving their treatments, hearing how each one has been helped.
I have now had 7 treatments, and began feeling an improvement after my 6th one! Enough of an improvement that I vacuumed my house on Monday for the 1st time since January! I then went for another treatment and shopped at Aldi for over 30 minutes. A long day for someone who had barely been out of bed for months, other than for doctor visits.
I can't believe how much better my knees are, and also can't say enough about the positive atmosphere, and the kindness shown by this amazing couple, who have each worked in the medical field for many years!
I highly recommend this if you have pain in your body and don't want to take a bunch of pain meds or want to put off surgery right now. If you, like me, have been told there is nothing that can be done for your pain, this is definitely worth a try! My insurance is even covering it!
Thank you SO much, Anthony and Danielle!! I can't wait to see how much better I will be by the end of my treatments!
