Review content:
I didn't realize this at the time but the start of a new job and the built up stress that I was feeling internally took a toll on my body to the point where I woke up feeling exhausted even after a good night's rest. I was also constantly experiencing the vertigos, raging headaches and had shortness of breath all while I was at work. I knew something was off so I went to my general doctor to learn that I was severely anemic to the point where I was on the verge of needing a blood transfusion. My doctor put me on Ferrous Sulfate, Iron supplement twice a day and it was recommended that I take it with food. So I followed the instructions and took the pills twice a day despite the constant nausea and constipation that came with it. A month later I went in for a follow-up check up and my doctor was elated to see that my blood counts had gone up. With full conviction, he recommended that I taper off from the supplement and that I should take it once a day every other day. However, that was a big mistake- a poor guidance which led to an eventful visit to the ER on my birthday. On my 29th birthday, I woke up feeling exhausted more than ever and I was already feeling stressed out even before I got into the office. My entire body felt heavy and my legs looked a bit swollen. About few hours into the job I felt weird tingling sensations on my legs and I felt feverish and cold. By end of the day, I broke out in red and very angry looking rash all over my legs that were symmetrical on both sides. So I rushed over to ER and the blood test showed that not only was my blood counts was very low but that I was under producing thyroid stimulating hormone into the blood which could lead to autoimmune thyroid diseases. The worst part of it all was that the ER doctor couldn't really finger point to the root cause of the problem. At first he put me on steroid to counter act any drugs that entered into my bloodstreams (in case I had an allergic reaction). Then he put me on antibiotics and asked that I taper off from the steroid. I followed the instructions but the symptoms didn't get any better, rather my legs were feeling doughier, the rashes were still present and I couldn't sleep well at night. As a result, I was feeling crankier and restless by day. This is when I met Katie Kim at Dunamis Acupuncture who I connected with immediately. She was very friendly and warm and the atmosphere was very inviting but most importantly, she was very attentive to my health symptoms and actually seemed to know what was wrong with me! I was very impressed! The first thing she said to me was let's get to the root cause of your symptoms! The sound of that was like music to my ears! The tasting of the herbal tea was very interesting! I was nervous at first because my palette is sensitive to acquired tastes, however I liked it! I drank it cold as if I'm drinking a cold beverage and it went down very smoothly and I felt like I was infusing my body with necessary minerals that my body was lacking. On top of that I didn't feel nauseous nor did I have to deal with the constipation. After the first week, I immediately began to sense the change in my body and the embarrassing rashes went away! It's been five month since I've been seeing Katie and I am doing better than I have been in close to two years! I have more energy; better skin tone; I can concentrate at work; I sleep well at night; blood counts are back to normal; no more dizzy spells; I eat better; I'm generally happier! Enough said? Katie is my hero and she worked miracles on my body when no one seemed to have an answer to my health problems. I have recommended Katie/acupuncture therapy to my family and friends and now to you if you are experiencing any health related problems!
