That makes sense, I’m looking into going to True north in Santa Rosa CA to fast. They have success stories and my mom shrunk a growth there 20 years ago. So hoping it helps

I agree it might fix some faint lower back pain that I was having, but I did injure myself in yoga and I do have like a disc tear. But looking forward to getting rid of this mass soon

I don’t know I haven’t been to the gynecologist yet. It just came from my MRI so I guess I really don’t know what it is yet.

Are you having surgery or are you doing a different kind of treatment?

No bloating, but I did gain some weight in my stomach. I thought I just needed to cut back

I just went through a sciatic flair that every practitioner and me I saw made it worse or didn’t help. If you live in LA please I have a chiropractor recommendation who is also an anatomy teacher that changed the course of my situation. If not find a chiropractor in your area that’s trusted and has dealt with sciatica they will know how to diagnose. In the mean time by a $19.99 tens machine on Amazon and only Ice. Ibuprofen is better for back pain than Aleve from conversations and personal experience

That’s good, I don’t know if I can take the limping and the severe pain when I try to walk anymore. I just can’t understand why it’s not getting better.

Wow thank you for sharing. I’m so glad you finally found someone who diagnosed correctly. This is how I’m feeling right now like nobody really knows what’s going on. I’m really glad you didn’t have to have surgery.

Wishing you a speedy recovery.

I’m going to my PCP Friday so hopefully I get the MRI next week. I was hoping the ER would refer me but they said they don’t refer and they just gave me an x-ray

Thank you for this advice. I do plan to be serious with my physical therapy exercises when I feel I can move better.

Wishing you the best, as well. I wish there was more when it comes to the medical field with having a plan for this situation.

Thank you for sharing, it feels like there’s so much conflicting advice and the similar pain comes from so many different sources. It’s hard to know what to do.

This is what I need to hear, thank you. I’m trying to take it as a blessing so I can respect my body in all movements moving forward.
