Alternative medicine is different than allopathic medicine. I was desensitized in the office. The whole thing took 15 minutes. No needles, no pain, nothing dangerous. I'm not sure what the procedure was called, I believe it was called NATE. I have to call my doctor's office on Monday and I'll verify the name of the 'procedure.' It involved me holding a vial of estrogen and some acupuncture points were stimulated (without needles). Sounds crazy, doesn't it? Well, everything they've done in the past year has worked. So, I have great trust. If you haven't been exposed to alternative medicine, it's a whole new world. I like it much better over here. Don't get me wrong, I still think conventional medicine has it's place. If I'm in a car wreck, I do want to go to the hospital. There are other examples, too. I won't bore you with them. I think you all get the point.  Please do not take anything I say as medical advice. I am not a doctor.
Open your mind to the possibilities available to you.
An attitude of gratitude is good 'medicine,' too.
