When I first came to see Dr Cole I was experiencing a very difficult time. I had been bed ridden for several months and left unable to walk and care for myself. I experienced debilitating spasms predominately in the arches of my feet, though also in other parts of my body. After twelve years of investigation I was given the diagnosis that I was living with a neurological condition. This condition was very rare and I was told that conventional medicine could offer little assistance, therefore I was left seeking a more traditional approach to pain relief. When I first hobbled into Dr Cole’s office it was evident that my body was experiencing a lot of stress. Dr Cole had to help me on to the bed as I was too weak to lift my body without assistance. My circulation was very poor, my feet were a blue colour and very cold, the spasms were frequent and extremely painful. Dr Cole conducted some tests and found that many of my levels were very low. We started treatment through an intravenous drip and injections once per week, along side high potency vitamins. In the beginning, things seemed to get worse before they got better. Though after a couple of months one day I just began to feel a little more at ease, warmth returned into my feet and my spasms soon eased to a more bearable level. I still continue to take vitamins and am now working part time and enjoying living a more social and satisfying life.
