Trigeminal Neuralgia, Occipital Neuralgia, Headaches Boise Idaho
A Testimonial
My medical diagnoses were for both Trigeminal and Occipital Neuralgia, both on the right side of my head. Trigeminal Neuralgia causes severe face pain triggered by cold air or a breeze, and Occipital Neuralgia causes a continuous debilitating headache.
I was diagnosed by an Ear Nose & Throat Doctor and prescribed medication to lessen the symptoms of Trigeminal Neuralgia which was fairly effective. A few years later the headache began, and it was eventually diagnosed as Occipital Neuralgia by an Internal Medicine Doctor who prescribed another medication to try to lessen the headache. When that had little or no effect I was treated by an Ophthalmologist and given a series of four steroid injections into the Greater and Lesser Occipital Nerves with each having only a short term effect. I was then referred to a Neurologist who tried various medications to no avail. My last resort was to see a Pain Specialist and be treated with Radio Transmitted Ablations. These (4 in total) had varying degrees and durations of effect, and had a great deal of pain and discomfort associated with the treatments. They were also designed to cause permanent nerve damages. Then I heard about Dr. Blom.
After receiving my first treatment of upper cervical care followed by a three hour nap I woke up and the headache that I had been experiencing 24/7 for two years and nine months was “GONE”.
In addition, my need for pain narcotics was gone and I was able to titrate off of them in record time with no side effects. The medications for the two Neuralgias were next, and I have successfully stopped taking both of them with no returned symptoms.
I immediately became a “back sleeper” as recommended and sleep restfully, awaking rested and alert. The Depression brought on by chronic pain lifted and that medication was also stopped. My mind is clear again, and my speech and writing skills have returned to pre illness/medication levels. Digestive tract, skin, hair and nail health, sinuses, metabolism, energy level, strength and stamina have been restored and I once again have a GENERAL FEELING OF WELL BEING!
I have my LIFE back and my husband has his WIFE back!
THANK YOU!!!
