Dizziness, Fainting, Pain, Digestive Issues ( Diagnosed as "Multiple Sclerosis" )

I am writing to express my sincere gratitude for helping me to have a vastly improved quality of life. I realize these words may sound extreme but in fact, they are true. As you know, I began seeing you less than a month ago. Upon my first visit, I was skeptical that any doctor could help me because I had been having medical problems off and on for the last eight years. This past year my health was at the lowest level it had ever been. I had been so sick and in awful pain that I would spend at least three days a week in bed. I had also been having digestive problems, bouts of depression, and more. On top of all of that, I was often feeling dizzy and had fainting spells. The fainting occurred upon rising from a lying position. It happened often in the morning, a couple of times at the doctor’s office, and also at the physical therapist’s office. The doctor’s that I was seeing could not explain it except for saying it could be dehydration or fatigue.

I had been to see a top neurologist who reviewed the results of an MRI and the spinal tap. The conclusion was that the test results were suggestive of Multiple Sclerosis. Obviously, I was devastated. I moved on to see three additional top neurologists, two physical therapists, an acupuncturist, and an alternative medicine doctor. And yet, with all of this, not one doctor could explain the fainting. All of these physicians agreed that with a diagnosis of M.S., the only route to take is to stay on the medicine prescribed and time will tell if the medicine helps. Worse than the news itself was finding that the medicine I was taking was making me feel worse.

Fortunately I began receiving your care. I don’t know where I would be today emotionally and physically if I had not met you when I did. It was at the first visit you said that you could help me with my symptoms and that I would improve over time. It was in your office that you tested my heart rate laying down and asked me to sit up. Well, you witnessed for yourself how I came close to passing out. With one adjustment you repeated the test and my heart rate did not drop as it did the first time, therefore, I did not feel faint. It was unbelievable. In one month, I have been relieved of my headaches, back pain, and neck pain. I have also seen improvements in my digestive problems, fatigue, and dizziness. I have not had fainting spells that I was having upon rising. I have more energy and less pain. I am getting back the active lifestyle that I once had and missed and feel healthier and happier. Thank you for giving me back my quality of life.
