Members Popular Post candlelight Posted December 29, 2015 Members Popular Post Share Posted December 29, 2015 For the past 1 1/2 years I have been hospitalized 3 times for grand mall seizures. Hopefully the last visit will be my last one. I spent a week at the Cleveland Clinic where an in depth brain scan was done. My neurologist said that I haven't been on the right seizure medication since the seizures came back in 1997. I am finally on the right anti-seizure medication. He also told me that I was born with seizures. As a child I had febrile or fever related seizures which went away when I was 12. These particular seizures are called "Generalized Seizures." Also, I have been getting horrible headaches since 2001. I am seeing a group of doctors called "The Drugless Doctors" who have done X-rays on my brain, neck and spine. I go to them 2 times a week. They are a different kind of chiropractor who work on the body in all kinds of ways, including the brain, the heart, the spine, the digestive system, including upper, lower intestines and more. Praise God that my insurance covers 80% the cost. I also get massage as well as it is recommended in my treatment. Unfortunately it is not covered by insurance. The massage helps with my violent headaches which come on without notice. They thought they were migraine related for awhile but they are related to stress. The Drugless Doctors and massage help wonderfully. Thank you Lord Jesus! trapperhoney, 2bLikeJesus, Alan and 3 others 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members candlelight Posted December 30, 2015 Author Members Share Posted December 30, 2015 (edited) Thank you Alan, John81 and Rosie:) I give all glory and praise to our Lord Jesus Christ for the good doctors he has put in my midst. In 1998 I was diagnosed by University Hospitals, but the medication they put me on was not strong enough and later they found out that it doesn't work well for seizures. It was a brand new drug at that time and hadn't really been tested on seizure patients. This drug is much older, and has had much success in the area for those suffering from any kind of seizure, not just "Generalized Seizures." Anyway, later I went to a private hospital then Kaiser, currently Health Span in OH and KY, as my insurance changed. I did gain some weight though. Lol For anyone who is curious, the website for the drugless doctors I am seeing is below. Maybe there is one in your area? They do wonders! "The Drugless Doctors" Chiropractic, Family Health and Wellness - They are a "different" kind of chiropractic doctor. The do not do any cracking, but do stretching techniques and use high tech equipment on all areas of one's back, including spine, hips, and head. They also work on stomach ailments. They follow a computer screen with one's X-rays on it to see where the problem areas are. www.druglessdrs.com Twitter: @ druglessdrs FB: The Drugless Doctors Edited December 30, 2015 by candlelight Alan and John81 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It is also wonderful that the "Drugless Doctors" are born again Christians. My in-laws discovered their show on cable. After two trips to the hospital in 6 months of each other, my husband, son, in-laws, pastor and his wife, were so concerned. Joe wanted answers! He was so tired of the doctors saying they couldn't find what was wrong with me. They thought I had some rare psychological illness and planned to use me as an experiment in their studies. By the 3rd time I had to have an ambulance called. I can barely remember a thing, except I put natural herbs, that should be swallowed, in an glass of mineral water. Joe noticed it and knew there was something wrong. He also says that I have a glare in my eyes like a trance when I have a seizure and I can't speak. Everything is so confusing. My neurologist hooked me to monitors and did more extensive testing. He told me two years ago, when I told him where I had been hospitalized before that he would gather all the information and solve the problem. I had an appointment with him that week. He also carried through with his promises. He couldn't believe how simple the problem was and how it was sitting under the doctors noses the whole time. He asked me how I had been surviving since 1997. This was my chance to witness a little to him about Jesus. I thanked him and told him that God sent him into my life, and that Jesus is my "Great Physician." I don't think it penetrated as he repeated that they should have done the proper testing and put me on the correct medication. Praise the Lord this doctor is one of the best in his field. He is the top neurologist at the CC anyway. Also, I was so happy to wake up each time to time to the KJV in the hospital room. The nurses also prayed with me. What a blessing!
