GraceAnn's Journal

Just a reminder to everyone, I had my internet service temporarily suspended from May 30 through August 30 so that I could save enough money to go to a homeopathic doctor.  We were not sure if my insurance would help pay for his services.  My first visit was $307.00, but my insurance did pay me back $205.00 for this visit.  My second visit was $237.50, I have not yet received my reimbursement yet for this visit.

I really liked this doctor, my first visit took 2 hours and I was with him the whole time.  I first had to fill out a 16-page questionnaire before he would even decide whether or not he would be able to help me.  "He" contacted me and set up an appointment.

On my first visit they done a saliva test and I completely failed the test.  They had me drink Lemon juice and then remeasured the saliva five more times, once every minute, my measurements were completely flat-lined.  Supposedly, your body is equipmented to reajust the acidity levels on its own by going to your own bodies reserve banks of vitamins and minerals.  My body is not doing this.  You would not believe how much money I was spending on vitamins and supplements.  He said my money was not absorbing them and basically "I was flushing them done the toilet" my body is rejecting them and sending it out as "trash."  This alone can cause achy muscle and tenderness because it gets trapped in the muscle tissue.

He also done a series of test on my urine and my goodness he gave me a four page letter describing my abnormalities and the consequences of each.  On my second visit, he discussed each result and I was in his office for an hour.  It is so refreshing to be able to sit and discuss in detail your symptoms and not feel like you have to tell everything in 10 minutes or less.

He has taken me off all of my medications and has put me on homeopathic vitamins as well as some drops that I mix with a dab of water.  I take some before I eat, some with a meal, and the drops three times a day.  I noticed an improvement with my irritable bowel right away.

I really have high hopes for his abilities and it a relief to me to be off my medications.  I would much rather take natural products. 

I am attaching his link to his website that describes what he does.  http://www.drnegri.com/

He is even treating me for my TMJ.  I went Friday and he done acupunture, used some sort of magnet to massage the individual muscles in my face and top of head, and even done a different type of adjustment to my neck that is suppose to have a ripple effect down my spine.  Unlike the chiropractor that hits specific discs to make the adjustment.  (I am not knocking chiropractors, they have been my greatest allies in my health in the past).

I do want to mention that after all this treatment I felt 100% better than I do after having botox injections in which leave me barely able to drive my 2 hour trip home.  I once felt so bad after these injections that I had to spend 3 nights with my sister who lives just 10 minutes from the doctors office.

Enough about my doctor, my son Joshua is now officially an Army Ranger.  He graduated on August 22 and will remain at Ft. Benning.  My son, Nathan, did not return to college this semester, but I told him would be back for the second semester.  He still is having depression issues.  My son, Zackary, has returned back to grade school.  He is also has thyroid problems that has resulted in his family doctor referring him to a Pediatrics specialist.  I take him tomorrow to see this doctor.
