How I avoided neck surgery...

Hello, my name is Laurie Sharpe and I am 41 years old. I have always been very athletic and until last February, I never thought anything would stop me from participating in numerous recreational activities.
Last winter my husband and I took up skiing after a fifteen year absence from the sport. I didn't take any dramatic falls, but a couple days after we returned, I noticed that my right hand was tingling and soon thereafter, I developed numbness in my hand. Then the pain started. First, in my right elbow, then the pain traveled up to my right shoulder with shooting pains down my right side.  Yes, I thought the pain would go away eventually. But as the months dragged on, I became more and more debilitated. I could no longer sleep on my right is having trouble sitting in one position on any kind of chair for more than a couple of minutes!


Sinus problems solved...

What a difference!

Over twenty years ago I had a surgery on my nose that was supposed to clear it and give me free breathing. It failed, and for all this time I have had only partial breathing through my nose. Now, thanks to you, I can finally breathe clearly. I love it! You explained how subluxation in my neck can interfere with the normal function of my sinuses. Your specific adjustments not only cleared my sinuses, but also stopped the early decay in my neck. I didn't realize that chiropractic techniques could give me free breathing! And also, thanks to you, I no longer have neck pain.


No more Dizziness!!!

My name is Grayce Klass and I would like to tell you about my little saga. One morning I woke up to find that if I turned my head side to side, or looked up, I just about passed out from dizziness. I thought I just got up too quickly. This persisted for weeks and consistently got worse by the day. I could hardly function. I was afraid to drive because if I turned my head I would get so dizzy, it was scary.
Finally, one night, around 9:00 p.m., I went to the emergency room. By the time I arrived, I was frantic and having heart palpitations. My blood pressure went sky high. When the doctor finally got to me, I had worked myself into a frenzy, imagining all sorts of horrible things. Well, he took care of that. He gave me a pill which brought my blood pressure down, then set up a series of ultra sound x-rays to check the carotid arteries which he said were probably blocked and could cause a stroke. He told me I was probably going to have a stroke! I was in hysterics!!!


No more Bedwetting!!!

I found out about chiropractic care for bed-wetting in a brochure from Dr. Bill's chiropractic office. I immediately thought of my 5-year-old grandson, Parker, and his ongoing problem with bed-wetting. It had become a nightly occurrence, sometimes more than once a night. As a result, it was followed by constant changing of bed sheets, pajamas, and the frustration associated with it. It didn't matter how much or how little he was given to drink before going to bed, he would wet the bed nevertheless.
I talked with my daughter about the positive results I have obtained from chiropractic care for my own back problems and suggested that we give chiropractic a try for Parker's problem. We had nothing to lose and she agreed. I talked to Dr. Bill about it and he said, "Give me six weeks and we'll see what happens."


Hashimoto's disease or Thyroiditis?

In 1995, my neck and throat hurt with such aching throbbing pain that I was tired and irritable anll the time. I would sleep 12 hours a night and wake up exhausted. When I didn't get better I went to the doctor who took a "wait and see attitude." After several months of this, the doctor finally ordered full blood tests. I was diagnosed with "Hasimoto's Disease" and given a prescription of Synthroid that started at 20 micrograms. I was told by the M.D. that once I start taking this drug that my dosage would gradually increase until it reaches a maximum of about 40-50 micrograms a day at which point my thyroid gland would be completely useless. I was told that I would have to take Synthroid for the rest of my life. I would also have to have my T2 and/or T4 levels checked 3-4 times annually.


Carpal Tunnel Syndrome

My name is Jill Bogle, I am 40 years old, married, and have a 9 year old daughter. For the past 22 years I have worked in the restaurant business. Originally, I was a cocktail server, but for the last 10 years I have been a food server. When my daughter was about 4 years old, I began having pains in my left wrist. I went to my M.D. , and he told me that I had swelling and had strained my wrist from a combination of carrying trays at wok and holding my daughter. He put me on anti-inflammatory medication to reduce the swelling, and told me to take Tylenol® for the pain. This did not work and the pain increased substantially. I went back to my M.D., and then this time he diagnosed me with having CARPAL TUNNEL SYNDROME. He told me that the only way to correct this was by surgery. He also informed me that I would need to change my job because I would no longer be able to carry trays, and most important, that I would never be able to hold my daughter with my left hand again!


Sciatica

To future Pain Free Friends, "HELLO".

My name is Ray Schroder and my experience with Dr. Bill is one of COMPLETE SATISFACTION!!! I had SCIATICA with A LOT OF PAIN and COULD HARDLY WALK!!! I tried acupuncture for 3 months ($$$) and physical therapy with little or no results! As luck would have it a woman came by to look at or purchase my home and told me about DeMoss Chiropractic. THANK GOD!!! I went to Dr. Bill and within 1 week (5 days) I was walking properly with little pain and eventually with NO PAIN at all.

"THANX, THANX, THANX DR. BILL!" I am a friend of Dr. Bill's. Ray Schroder


Allergies, asthma and migraines

Tyler was born on July 5, 1988. At the age of two, Tyler was examined several times by our HMO doctor due to a constant runny nose, cough, flu, fever, and ear infections. The treatment plan originally called for Dorcol OTC elixir, vaporizer, and fluids. In less than two weeks, we were back to the walk-in clinic with the same symptoms. Tyler was prescribed the same medication with Tylenol added to the list. Prescription after prescription was filled and re-filled with no end in sight. We were constantly at Sav-Ons. To add to the misery, at the age of four, Tyler began averaging one headache a week. These headaches eventually intensified into migraines. The pain was so intense he would fall to the ground in agony. Over the years, Tyler was examined by multiple medical doctors who informed me that, "it is common for children to have headaches while growing up".


Frequent urination

About two years ago I began waking up in ihc middle of the night to use the bathroom What started as a "once a night" phenomenon soon grew into a 2 ot 3 times per night habit. 1 was approaching my 30"' birthday so 1 just attributed it to aging. When I mentioned this to my father in passing (who's in his late 50's). he told me that he sleeps soundly throughout the night Then I thought maybe it was due to the wrong diet or eating too late. etc. It gradually became chronic to the point that I was urinating every 45 minutes during the day and waking up as much as 7 times per night!


Depression

Chiropractic care has made me look at myself in a whole new light.
I used to have sevens bouts with depression over my health. I was experiencing headaches, which are now gone.

I no longer need to take my allergy meditation. I have not been sick since stalling chiropractic care. I had numbness in my extremities of which I do not experience anymore.
I no longer take the 1600 mg of Motrin that I used to lake daily for my neck and back pain.


Asthma

My name is Nicholas Salisbury. I was born on July 19, 1989. By the time I was a year old I already had bronchitis, bronchial pneumonia, and bronchial asthma. By the time I was diagnosed as an "asthmatic". I was coughing up to 40 times a minute, just trying to breath. I had to be hooked up to a breathing machine that my M.D. gave me, at least four times a day. Sometimes my fingers would turn blue because oxygen wasn't getting to my hands. By the time I was 2, I was on 5 different medications (including steroids) that had to be taken at all hours of the day, night, and wee hours of the morning. And I still got worse! I was miserable! I still couldn't breath and now I was having side effects. I was constantly hyper-active, I couldn't sleep, I was nervous, I lost weight, and I stopped growing for 2 whole years!


Shoulder injury

I have told numerous people about my experience with DeMoss Ch iropractic and decided to write this letter to express my thanks to you personally. Until approximately ten months ago I was extremely paranoid about anyone doing anything to my back or neck. I did not believe in chiropractors and could not understand why anyone would go for adjustments. I knew several people who had regular adjustments and they swore by them. My story begins about eighteen months ago when I injured my left shoulder lifting a sheet of plywood. My shoulder was stiff and ached for several months and continued to get worse, instead of better. I finally went to a medical doctor who ran tests and diagnosed my condition as Bursitis of the shoulder. I was given anti-inflammatory medication which helped slightly as long as I was taking it.


Rheumatoid Arthritis

Having rheumatoid arthritis for four years now, I've been seeing my rheumetologist for three of then. I'm on many medications to keep my condition in remission. I've tried several pain medications that cause side effects to make it close to impossible to work and enjoy everyday life and I chose not to take thea. I was receiving cortizone shots in both wrists and some knuckle joints every three months. These were very painful shots. The only medication I've seen on the market that has worked to ease my pain is a vitamin with trace minerals called Arth-X). I've also experienced pain relief in my wrists and fingers from adjustments I receive from my chiropractor.


Asthma

My name is Jake Daniel Stowell ( a.k.a. Hercules), I was born on September 1, 1993 I was afflicted with Asthma at the age of two. I started getting frequent colds that turned into coughing and wheezing attacks lasting a few days to weeks at a time. I was awake almost every night for a year from 2 a.m.- 4 a.m., coughing 30 to 40 times per minute. I couldn't exert any energy without coughing and my chest hurt me all the time. I was hooked up to a breathing machine 4 times a day as well as inhaling steroid through a bronchodilator 3 times a day. I suffered from bronchitis and pneumonia numerous times, each time taking different strengths of antibiotics.


Tonsillitis, cold

When I first brought my son, Jordan (11 mos) to see Dr. Bill DeMoss, he had been sick for about 1-1/2 weeks with tonsillitis.
The tonsillitis turned into a bad cold, cough and then some wheezing.

Jordan was on three types of medication at that time: antibiotic (sulfimycin) cough and congestion medicine (poly-histine DM) and wheezing medicine (albuterol). (When he first got sick, the doctor prescribed another type of antibiotic, but after a week, when there was no improvement, the doctor changed it to sulfimycin).


Neck pain

When I first came to see Dr. Bill I was experiencing a lot of discomfort and restricted movement in my neck area. Every time I went surfing and was paddling on by board or doing laps while swimming in the pool I would get this intense pain in my neck. It got so bad I eventually had to stop surfing for about 5 months because it was just way to painful to lie prone on my board and put my head way back to paddle. Also, each time I played my guitar my fingers on my left hand would start to tingle and get numb. Not only was this very uncomfortable, it distracted my concentration when I was performing. Needless to say I was worried. Three of my favorite things I love to do in life, surfing, swimming and playing music, were impossible to continue or becoming more difficult to do each day.


Heartburn

Hi! My name is Fred Webb. I am 37 years old. I've had bad back trouble since my early twenties. I've also had STOMACH PROBLEMS with excruciating pain and HEARTBURN for the past 10 years or so. And recently I started getting headaches on a daily basis. I was referred to Dr. DeMoss by a friend of mine who achieved phenomenal results. After my examination and x-rays Dr. DeMoss found a SUBLUXATION at T6 which is the area where the nerves lead into my stomach and other subluxations at CI and C5 which were causing my headaches!!! Dr. DeMoss told me he could help me with my back pain, headaches, and maybe even my stomach problems. I was a little unsure that my back had anything to do with my stomach until I learned this!!


Mi nombre es Maria Cisneros:

He sido paciente de Dr. Bill por seis meses. Antes de empezar mi tratamiento surfria mucho de dolor de espalda y dolor de cabeza, me veia forzada a tomar advil para calmar me dolor. Las noches eran muy dificiles porque los dolores de cabeza me causaban insomnia otra causa de mi problema para descansar durante la noche era que al padecer de problemas urinarias. Tenia la nesecidad de usar el bano hasta 3 veces durante la noche. A causa de esto me sentia cansada y sin energia durante el dia. Durante lass primeras 2 semanas de ver a el Dr. Bill note mucha diferencia. Me siento mas descansada y sobretodo mi dolor de espalda y cabeza han disminuido a tal grado que no nesesito tomar mas advil para descansar. Mis problemas con la vegiga terminaron no tengo que levantarme durante la nocha para usar el bano. Ahora si puedo dormir y decansar bien durante la noche. Ahora me siento bien y con mucha mas energia durante el dia. Estoy extremadamente agradecida con Dr. Bill y todo el personal de la oficina que todo el tiempo me hacen sentir confortable y bienvenida. Quiero decirle gracias Dr. Bill por megorar la calidad en mi salud y por hacer la diferencia en la forma que me siento ahora.

Sinceramente,

Maria G. Cisneros
