Finding PAIN RELIEF with SIGNAL RELIEF — Vicky’s story
We were coming back from a business meeting, 10:30 at night. We were driving back over Parleys Summit and there in the road in front of us was a dead moose. When I saw it I stiffed, grabbed his arm, and said “What is that?”
We flew over like the dukes of hazards. Landed and I think I was just more in shock than anything in the beginning. A couple of days later I noticed that I was hurting. I couldn’t turn my neck.
Went and had an x-ray and they said “Well you stenosed your C5, 6, and 7 and they are pressing on your spinal cord. Do you want to have surgery?”
That was the last thing I wanted so they gave me medication, pain meds to take. Then we tried any non-traditional thing you could do. We did acupuncture, acupressure, massage, the tense unit, anything and everything to avoid having surgery. I ended up going to a spinal clinic where they were able to work with me and do injections in hopes of easing up the pain and it didn’t. I still was just in constant pain. The pain controlled my life totally.
I wouldn’t go anywhere unless I knew I had pain meds with me. I had to deal with the pain all day long. It was exhausting. It just felt like I had no life. I started to think it would be better if I just killed myself.
My husband is always looking for other things that we can do. He found out about the signal patches and he said “Let’s try this.”
I was to the point where I didn’t care. I would try anything. By the third day of wearing it the pain was gone. It was amazing. It helped to give me my life back.
