Hey there! My name is Jessika Anderson and I truly appreciate you taking a moment to read my story.

In November ‘22, I had a surgery on my right wrist for tendonitis. After experiencing extreme amounts of post-operation pain, I was diagnosed with Complex Regional Pain Syndrome in my entire arm.

CRPS a form of chronic pain that typically develops after an injury (or a surgery). The pain is out of proportion to the severity of the initial injury. Additional symptoms that I’ve been experiencing throughout my arm since the surgery are burning sensations, nerve inflammation, muscle swelling/ spasms, joint stiffness, decreased mobility, anxiety attacks, etc.

What was supposed to be a two week recovery period has turned into an incredibly difficult healing journey. My life has been altered in such a way that my daily activities such as working, exercising, cooking, driving, and being a hands-on mom to my daughter have been severely disrupted.

After routine appointments with numerous doctors, going to the emergency room a countless number of times, and trying various traditional medications and treatments, my condition has progressively worsened.

Any money donated will go towards securing an opportunity to attend a facility called Holistic Centered Treatment, located in Idaho (website here: https://holisticcenteredtreatment.com/crps-%7C-chronic-pain). HCT has designed a 2-week outpatient program with proven treatments to significantly improve the health of patients living with CRPS. They have discovered holistic methods to treat the actual problem instead of focusing on the symptoms.

Ultimately, I need to take this next step in my healing journey so that I can be healthy enough to give my daughter and I the life that we deserve. The treatment that HCT offers will allow me to gain a better quality of life again.

Any amount you're willing to contribute is so greatly appreciated. If you aren't able to contribute money at this time, I would be so grateful if you would be so kind to share with your friends and family.
