This blog is now going to be my vision board. It will contain information about diet and exercise along with cartoons and other things that I chose to post here as I go along this journey.

There are some recipes on this page but most of them can be found under the healthy recipe tab on my main page.

Week One - Day Two - Visit with Dr. Scott

As you can tell from my post yesterday, this post will contain discussions I have with my other Doctor's along with my visits to Dr. Scott.  Dr. Scott is the Chiropractor, Kevin Henry is my Primary Care Doctor, Wes Norwood is my Allergist and Dr. Hardman is my Pulmonologist.  All of these people are concerned about me and want to keep my alive, to which my family, especially Vickie, are very thankful.  I need to make sure I do what they say.

Today the program with Dr. Scott was the same as yesterday.  I asked the gal that was giving the Cold Laser Light Therapy the purpose of it.  She said is works with the cells to rebuild them and get the nerves in my feet to communicate with my brain.  I have been accused of being brain dead, maybe I really am.  The do this treatment to help reverse the peripheral neuropathy.  If you haven't heard of peripheral neuropathy, don't be surprised.  Before I began this journey I didn't either.  It goes by many different names and describes a group of symptoms the appear first in the feet, legs or hands.

There is a great article on peripheral neuropathy and cold laser treatments at   http://info.latorrewellnesscenter.com/blog/bid/210799/What-Is-Peripheral-Neuropathy-Can-Cold-Laser-help

I just wanted to post a little information about the purpose of the different treatments I go through with Dr. Scott. More for my own knowledge,but also to help those that  read this blog understand also. Maybe something I post or some information I post will be of hep to someone.

Have a good evening.
