I came to Dr. David in early October of 2003 after meeting him at his booth at the Eugene Celebration. I was very impressed by what he had to say at our brief meeting at his booth and I decided I should schedule an evaluation with him and explore chiropractic care further.
Two years ago I was diagnosed with Fibromyalgia and have been living with chronic pain for closer to three years. All the other doctors that I have seen basically gave me prescriptions for pain and for sleep and told me to learn to live with it. I have been in and out of physical therapy for most of the past two years in trying to deal with chronic muscle pain. The first thing Dr. David asked me was "when were you in an accident?" That made me a believer right away – I was in a car accident about six years ago in which my car rolled over several times down an embankment. After working with Dr. David for only one month I was no longer needing my pain or sleeping meds!!!! What a great feeling it is to no longer have to depend on drugs to just get through the day.
A few weeks ago I did something to my shoulder and could not raise it at all. I got in to see Dr. David late in the afternoon for an adjustment, and the next morning I could move my arm and shoulder as good as new. In the past when this has happened it would take 6 weeks of physical therapy before I would be better. In my mind Dr. David works miracles and I am encouraging anyone I know that has been diagnosed with Fibromyalgia to come in to see him so that they can reclaim their life again.
