Perhaps one of you can steer me in the right direction, I dont know where to look;
My 25 years old daughter in Washington State, a young beautiful student, struggling, always
struggling because of health and finances: She is almost always in pain, esp with her back.
Two days ago she called me in a frightful panic, with horrid paind, and nobody available to drive
her to doctor. Finally the neighbour came home and called the ambulance: she was on the floor, pain
had been so enormous since night before, her chest was hurting, she could not breathe and felt her
spine was on fire. Ambulance took all sorts of tests and told her her body and symptoms were those
of an old person. In the hospital they gave her painkillers, told her perhaps she had a bloodcloth
in her lungs and sent her home... (her 6 year old daughter all along at her side). The next days she
slept and slept and her back and chest felt terribly bruised. I just talked to her again (I live
back in europe, she in the west of the states) and she related her situation like this: Feels like a
hotflash, then hurts like it is on fire, the the chest hurts, like a heartburn but it is the entire
chest. Tailbone throbs. The next day she feels all bruised. Her spine feels like a rubber band and
has no strength, she needs pillows to support herself.
Recently, finally having minimum state healthcare, Xrays were taken by state health Dr: he said all
was fine. The chiropractitioner then took Xrays, he says: 7 dislocated vertabrae, tailbone broken,
hips out of place. She has a long history of stomach pains, thinking finally last year that that
could possible be endometriosis. Her diet is minimal... having been a complete veggan for several
years during pregancy and several years after.... And as a young teenager, the schoolcop hit her to
the ground on three different occasions, she thinks her back problems are directly related to this.
She is living from day to day, money and health wise, she often cant work because of the pains,
making her money problems even more precarious.
Does anyone have ideas, suggestions about her healthissues?
Thanks for your time Jopie concerned mother in Europe
