Fibromyalgia. I was in my senior year high school, a year that was meant for success, celebration and enjoyment, but instead was filled with severe pain, seclusion and loneliness. I rarely could attend school and was lucky if I could ever get out of bed for days. I would wake up, literally shaking, in pain. I had been to a doctor after doctor, but none seemed to help. Most only lead to worsening symptoms. My memory was fading rapidly, the pain increasing, and my hope diminishing . . . until my mom found Dr. Chavez. I had my obvious doubts after reading what it was all about and also after my first adjustment but soon after . . . I started to see improvement. This was the first time, in a long time, that my hope was restored that someday I would be out of pain. I continued to come to Dr. Chavez and before I knew it, my pain was less, my memory was returning and so was my joy. Dr. Chavez changed my life forever and I can’t wait to see the breathtaking things that he will continue to do for this world and the people in it.
