RECOVERY IS REAL...!

What is it like to have fibromyalgia? Millions of people could give countless stories of their struggles with this often debilitating disorder. However,few people can give positive accounts of the results of their recovery. My story, I feel ultimately does just that. As you read this account, please keep in mind that if you suffer from fibromyalgia, or any other debilitating disorder,you needn't suffer any longer.

My name is Denise Hale a.k.a. Dee. I am 48 years old and married to a wonderful man named Phil. We have been married almost 27 years and have three children, Ryan 23, Tim 21, and Danielle Eight years old.

THE LONG HAUL

I have had fibromyalgia for 29 years. My symptoms began long before doctors knew what fibromyalgia was.

THE JOURNEY DOWN THE LONG ROAD

On April 8, 2002, I had a root canal procedure performed on my right upper molar. Within one month, I began to have severe pain in my right hip and in both legs and feet. This type of pain was different from anything I had ever experienced before. It became difficult to go up and down stairs. The pain persisted throught the day and night. At that time, there didn't seem to me to be a correlation between a root canal and hip and leg pain.

A CHANCE MEETING...?

On May 30,2002, I met one of my daughter's classmates mother, named Debbie. As we talked, I informed her that I had fibromyalgia. Little did I know that my journey to wellness was about to begin. Debbie suggested that I call Dr Barton ( a well known fibromyalgia specialist) in San Diego, Califorinia. "People from all over the world go to see him,not just for fibromyalgia,but for many other health problems", she said. Well, I thought I've been down so many "rabbit trails" over the years, one more won't hurt. Why waste his time? I thought it would be easier to see a local Holistic Doctor closer to home. This proved to be another waste of time and money.

TWO STEPS CLOSER

After calling and talking with Dr Barton, he asked me to give him my health history. All ilness from childhood to present,current and previous medications,and requested a panoramic x-ray. I soon began a home program closely supervised by Dr Barton. After reviewing my history by his team of specialists, it was determined that I most likely had several chronic ailments that contributed to my fibromyalgia symptoms: mercury and nickel toxicity (I also had a nickel crown and bridgework in my mouth), candidiasis (yeast overgrowth) and parasites. These conditions I later found out are common in many people.

CHANGE IS GOOD...!!!

As I began my treatment program,within months changes began to take place. Increased energy, weight loss of 17 pounds over three months, muscle aches began to diminish and "fibro-fog" gave way to greater concentration levels. As hormone levels returned to normal,hot flashes went away. That is worth bundles to any woman going through menopause! My sugar cravings ceased as I began to educate myself more about the proper foods to eat. Abdominal bloating as well as irritable bowel syndrome went away. Over the past nine months, I have seen 7-8 fatty lipomas disappear, and 2 rather large cysts are continually growing smaller after 20 years. These things, in and of themselves are very fascinating to me.

THE AMAZING RESULTS OF MY DENTAL REVISION

In November 2002, I went to San Diego to see Dr Barton and have him personally oversee my dental revision and follow up care. The care I received was excellent. The most amazing aspect of my dental revision came the same evening after the procedure. My right hip pain as well as the pain in both legs and feet went away within hours of the revision. It has not returned. Thank god!

NINE MONTHS LATER

As of this writing, 9 months has passed since my dental revision. Fifteen months since the start of my journey to health in May 2002. For the first time in my life, my immune system is stronger than I can ever remember and I feel the best I have felt in  years. Honestly, I cannot remember springtime without hay fever allergies. The pollen count was very high this year,or so I was told. Hay fever allergies did not effect me this year.

GLORY TO GOD

For years I had prayed and fasted, in hopes that God would heal me. My prayer has been answered by the expert care of Dr Barton.

CAN YOU IDENTIFY WITH ME...?

If you can identify with "my story" and would like to know more, then call Dr Barton at (614) 571-5566 and begin your journey to wellness. My prayer is that many will also have their own sucess stories to tell. I thank God for inspiring me to tell "my story". I look forward to hearing yours.

May God bless you and your families abundantly.

In his service,

Dee Hale
