I’ve been treating with Dr. Julie for about 3 months now. I’ve had 3 back surgeries over the last 9 years and, although the first surgery solved the radiating pain I was experiencing, about a year afterward, I started experiencing CONSTANT restless leg syndrome. Thereafter, I had 2 more back surgeries and over 30 other procedures to try to resolve the RLS – to no avail. I was referred to Dr. Julie and, although I had already lost any and all hope of ever being free of the RLS, I decided to give her a try given the amazing help she had given several others. When I started with her, I was using 100 mg Fentanyl patches for the RLS & 10/325 oxycodone every 4 hours for the breakthrough pain, which helped me to be able to continue to work versus filing for disability. However, I think the biggest ailment I was suffering was a very deep depression, to the point of having VERY dark thoughts. I started with Dr. Julie and, by my 3rd visit, was already feeling a tremendous diminishing in my leg pain/RLS and, by the end of the 2nd month, the pain had resolved enough for my pain management doctor & I to make the decision to start weaning down the strengths of my Fentanyl patches. I am now on 75 mg, with hopes of continuing to wean down further over the next couple of months. Dr. Julie’s treatment, combined with the lower strength patch, has also significantly lifted the fog of depression and I’m starting to experience joy & happiness, without much effort, and feeling like the old me. I cannot recommend Dr. Julie enough for anyone that is suffering from ANY type of ailment. Each visit I go in, I tell her where I’m having pain or how I’m feeling, even telling her of new problems, and she does her magic and I always come out of there with those pains & problems gone or greatly improved. I would never have believed Dr. Julie & acupuncture make such a difference in my daily quality of living, however, I’m now a true believer and will be singing her praises FOREVER! Please give her a try… you will not regret it!
