I have written you a number of times in the past and your advice has been invaluable. We are all so much better. A while back, in response to my E-Mail, you wrote me back and recommended Prolotherapy for my elderly mother’s severe back, leg and foot pain. She was in pain constantly and couldn’t sleep at night. She saw Dr. Kent Pomeroy, and MD, Pain Management specialist, and Naturopathic physician specializing in Prolotherapy, here in the valley and after about 5 months, she is almost completely pain free. I just wanted to strongly encourage you to recommend Prolotherapy (and even Dr. Pomeroy) to your listeners with pain related problems that are not getting any better. I never hear you talk about it on your show and am not sure why. Prolotherapy is not a “quick fix”, but there is some immediate and definite long-term healing and pain relief. After many diagnoses from many of my mother’s doctors consisting of peripheral neuropathy, narrowing of the spine, arthritis, etc., Dr. Pomeroy determined it was lax tendons and some arthritis and used Prolotherapy injections to rebuild the tendons and help heal the arthritis which were the causes of the pain. She is a different and happy person without the pain. Please recommend this to your listeners, as the lax or injured tendons do not show up on the X-rays or MRI’s and are rarely diagnosed by MD’s. I’ve been telling all my friends and they are very grateful for this alternative to perscription pain medicine and all their devistating side effects, which is all that the regular medical doctors recommend. Thanks again for everything. You have been a major force for good in our lives.
Yours truly, Barbara B.
