Health issues: back pain, eye pressure, pernicious anaemia

I have been suffering for 10 years with back pain.  I think poor posture, sitting at a desk and wearing high heels (I’m not very tall) probably caused the problem.

A lot of the time I was in pain.  My lower back pain was really bad. Bending down to pick things up was very painful and sitting was a problem.  My upper back pain was even worse.  Office work and sitting at a computer all week every week meant that I had a band of constant aching across my back. I also had pain in my hand. I’m not too sure if it’s arthritis. The pernicious anaemia means I have very low energy. I used to go home from work really tired and couldn’t do anything.

My sister told me about Ceragem.  I kept making excuses not to go in.  I didn’t know what to expect.  I looked through the window a few times. Then I ran out of excuses and my sister encouraged me come.

The first time it was really painful and I didn’t really like it.  The next day I was in agony and I felt it had made me worse. My sister told me there’s no point coming just once.  It took about a month of regular use (four times a week) before it felt easier.  I have been using Ceragem for 14 months now.

One day it wasn’t as painful as it had been and then less and less pain.  It’s a bit up and down but nothing like it was.  So why did I decide to keep using Ceragem?  Firstly what my sisters told me and also the improvement I saw in my eyes after 3 weeks was exciting.  There is a history of glaucoma in our family so I have an annual eye check and the pressure has been the same for years but after just 3 weeks I saw an improvement. When I went to the opticians, they told me the pressure had improved. It had to be Ceragem that did this because I hadn’t made any other changes.

After about 3 months of using Ceragem I had a rash around my neck and ears and some spots.  This lasted about a week.  After about 8 months I had a healing reaction.  I had really bad lower back pain. It lasted about a month. I kept thinking every day I can’t carry on like this.  I nearly gave up but I thought I can’t give up now because I had hope.  They said it would improve but I kept thinking when?

My eyes have improved.  I have hardly any pain at all now in my back.  The pain in my hand has gone. I have more energy.

I now use Ceragem 5 days a week at the Centre and once or twice at my sister’s (she bought a bed).  I come after work tired and when I get off I feel more energetic and can do more.  I went on a 10 mile hike Good Friday, mostly uphill and normally I would have ached but after I used my sister’s Ceragem bed I was amazed the next day when I felt good as if I hadn’t been on a hike at all.

I can’t think about not using Ceragem now. Using Ceragem will keep my back as it should be.  I come here and feel I can do things.  Before I used to go home from work and couldn’t do anything but now I can.

Thank you to my sister for her persuasion.  Thank you to Ceragem.
