Fibromyalgia Testimonials

I have been suffering for many years with fibromyalgia and Osteoarthritis, both of which have caused chronic fatigue and a lot of pain.
As a result of this I was unable to function normally and was given several different medications with bad side effects. The last medication, Lexapro, which I started taking in June of this year at a low dosage increasing to a normal dosage gave me a headache that caused me incredible pain. Much worse than any migraine I had ever suffered. The pain was on top of my head and I could actually put my finger on the spot as if I had been struck with a sharp instrument. Eventually the headache turned to shooting pains and became unbearable.
Dr. Pocurull of the Arthritis & Osteoporosis Clinic- Brazos gave me cortisone injections in my shoulders which relieved the pain somewhat, but three weeks later he had an Alpha-Stim 100 microcurrent stimulator sent to me in the mail. I then stopped taking the Laxapro and started treatment with the Alpha-Stim. After about two weeks, I found I had an improvement in my pain level and my energy level. After six weeks from the time I stopped the Lexapro the headache is almost gone and I am feeling so much better.
I believe I will not need to take any more antidepressants or pain pills. With this Alpha-Stim I am confident I will be able to function normally once again without any side effects.

I have suffered from fibromyalgia for over 16 years and have been treated by many doctors. The treatment of choice for all of the doctors has been prescription drugs, pain pills, anti-depressants, steroids, etc., with little or no relief, many side effects and no hope for any kind of normal life. Fibromyalgia has been and can be very debilitating. Body wide pain, inability to think, read, sleep, style my hair, drive a car, and even get out of bed. This has all changed. I decided to try one more doctor. He sent me to an occupational therapist and her choice of treatment was Alpha-Stim® 100. I can wear it where ever I go. It is amazing and I now have an active life with my family.
