FUNCTIONAL Neorology

What an amazing SUMMER we had!  I found that I had devoted so much time to the computer that I wasn't taking time with my family!  Now I am back on the cyber world.

Feeling pretty good.  I started seeing Dr Dane about 3 weeks ago.  She is a Functional Neurologist.  Here is the link  http://www.functionalhealthcaresolutions.com/

I am amazed at how God designed our bodies.  Everything is connected.  We all face symptoms of one problem.  My symptoms were severe anxiety, depression, weight gain (unable to loose weight) among other things.  First I had an exam and blood work.  When I got the results I was almost relieved.  I was malnourished, not processing food , my body was full of inflammation, I was anemic and my brain was VERY fragile (Dr Dane's words)- because again I was not processing any of the DHA EPA that I was taking in on a daily basis ( I had been taking 3 times the amount of fish oil recommended). She told me that it's like I am standing on the edge of a cliff on a daily basis.  That I spend all my energy for just one good fire out, one good "punch" then I am done for the day.  I also found out that my center of gravity is actually leaning forword.  Which means when I stand totally straight up I am actually leaning foreword.  (I still believe it's from a lifetime of roller coaster riding :).  This concept of interesting to me.  It makes so much sense.  That is also my my calf muscles are huge.  Because I am constantly using them by walking on the pads of my feet.

Dr Dane started me on several supplements and a special nutritional shake.  She could barely do any therapies with me the first few sessions because my brain would tire out so quickly.  I actually spent the entire first 3 sessions on oxygen.  Not because I couldn't breathe, but she wanted to maximize the time we had and the oxygen gave us more  because I could get more than one "punch".  She monitors my blood pressure and heart rate the entire time.  This last week I was off of oxygen and was able to start more intense therapies.  The therapies involve lots of eye training exercises.  My eyes are very weak but they are getting stronger with each day.  I am feeling so much better and we are only 3 weeks in.  I go twice a week for three months. 


We go through our lives believing that God just "created" us this way. Circumstances in our lives cause our bodies to change and react. Functional Neurology is absolutely amazing. I believe that God has given these Doctors a small peek into just what he designed our bodies to do.
 I plan on keeping your up to date as my appointments progress.
God is good and continues bless me.

Baby Girl

On September 17th my sweet baby girl turned 3!  I am constantly blessed by her smiles and laughter.  Her personality and BIG blue eyes and lashes melt my heart to the core!  Thank you Lord for every second that you have let us borrow sweet Naomi!
