Needed medical treatment
Donation protected
My name is Tamika. I am raising funds for medical treatment not covered by the health insurance company. I was diagnosed with a condition called Central Sensitization Syndrome. This illness affects my ability to lead a normal life because I am constantly in pain, day in and out, which includes during sleep. I never know how I am going to feel during day because my pain level changes without warning.
Some days, it’s unbearable to the point where I need to get medical help to reduce it. I’ve tried medication, relaxation techniques, meditation and gentle stretching amongst a long list of things recommended.
I was told by Mayo Clinic that I need to “reset my brain and central nervous system to get them out of the fight or flight state they are stuck in”. Only thing they couldn’t tell me was exactly how to do that. Until 2 weeks ago, I thought I would be stuck this way for 8 years like last time. However, I now know about a treatment called “Scrambler Therapy”.
With this therapy, it takes the negative pain signals being sent back and forth between my brain and central nervous system and it scrambles them to go back as positive signals to stop the pain cycle. I was able to try this therapy and was very happy with the results of my pain levels reducing. However, it isn’t covered by the insurance.
For more info about the treatment I have included links below. Thank you for your support.
