I WILL SEE WHAT I CAN FIND OUT THROUGH A LITTLE RESEARCH, BUT AS I MENTIONED, I NEED TO BE CLEAR ABOUT THE SITUATION SO I KNOW WHERE TO POINT MY RESEARCH.
Hey, just stopped by to say hello. Buy the way, check out my discussions and video area on my page, I have over 700 informative and educational videos in there. Lots of good stuff in there.
Hi Karen, I am glad o hear from you again. You are such a strong woman and a fighter. You have overcome a lot. This is just food for thought since you have so much trouble eating and getting the proper nutrients, vitamins and amino acids you need. The program I'm on now, has a woman who was also in a chair from MS, she started these products and has completed marathons now, maybe they could help you in many ways too? Looking forward to hearing from you. You are so strong. Namaste Elaine
Hi Karen, It's so nice to hear from you. You sound like such a strong person in the face of adversity. You and I do have a lot in common, we are both seekers. I really found this out when I discovered my chiro tha is an accupuncurist and well versed in Eastern Medicine. I was at the stage where I was on so much pain medicine (not so much now), I experienced the same tissue pain as you, I would literally hurt from my toesall through my body, out to my hands and my head. You couldn't touch my soft tissue at times, then the other pain points were screaming, my hips and thighs would be so bad I would have to lie on my back propped up and with pillows under my legs to give my back and legs a rest and help relieve the pain. I would ry to get up and walk and have so much pain in my feet that it felt like I was walking on bone, no padding. I just shut down pretty much. I would work when I could after chiro visits, rest, pain meds. Very difficult emotionally because I lost interest in everything just about and gained weight. I also had a very difficult time at work, people really don't understand pain. But now I feel I have a new leash on life with these high quality nutritional products cleansing the toxins out on a cellular level and then flooding it with high quality nutritions. I know we learned about nutrition but we are really just now discovering how important it is in managing health, mentally and physically. I still have a ways to go but this time I know I can achieve my goals and enjoy myself the rest of my life with this. Please feel free to conact me anytime. I can relate. Namaste Elaine
Hi Karen, I was online and I saw that you were on also. I just wanted to invite you as my friend and maybe we could share some things. We have bit in common. I am a nurse also. I have done some hospice in the past. I love to help people get well. I still nurse fulltime but am now into helping people heal from the inside out. I too was in a wreck about 2 yrs ago and it has been really rough. I, in a month have improved my health so much that it's hard to believe. I could hardly drag myself out of bed to go to work d/t the pain, my weight had skyrocketed, my energy and mental clarity took a nose dive. I officially weigh Wed but I apx about 17 lbs and last measure over 26 in., my pain is sooo decreased that I'm coming off my meds, my energy is out the roof. So many co-workers are just amazed at what's trasforming in and out of my body that they want the same. Please feel free to contact me if any of this sounds like something you would like to instill in your life too. I think you live in an awesome place. I lived on coast S Tx for awhile....love it, and you seem to have a perfect place to enjoy that. Like the pic you posted. Hoping for the best in your life for you and your son. Namaste Elaine
