Renea has BCH. Though she has not yet received Prolotherapy to her whole body at one time, over the course of time she has had most of the joints of her body treated with Prolotherapy. She now has no lower back pain, neck pain, shoulder pain, elbow pain, or knee pain and we are currently working on her elbows.

What about the pain of the injections? What about Fibromyalgia?
What about the pain of the Prolotherapy injections? Can something be done to deaden the pain? Absolutely. For extensive Prolotherapy cases like this, we use intravenous pain control also called conscious sedation. The patient is not completely “knocked out,” but made “woozy” with intravenous Demerol, morphine, or Versed (valium like).

This typically puts a person in a twilight state, making the shots very tolerable.

In regard to Fibromyalgia, sometimes the patient may require whole body Prolotherapy. As you may or may not know, Fibromyalgia is a syndrome that means “pain all over the body,” That’s all it is. More often than not, however, the Fibromyalgia patient at Caring Medical receives Prolotherapy to the worst areas and then receives comprehensive natural medicine treatments to put the body in the healing mode. The combination of balancing body chemistry and the Prolotherapy helps a person with Fibromyalgia overcome the condition. Perhaps a better way to put it is the condition goes into remission. With the remission of the Fibromyalgia comes an accompanied remission of the pain. In summary, Caring Medical sees the difficult cases. We help the people who are supposed to be in wheelchairs or destined to a life-time of pain, or even worse-yet, destined to long-term drug addiction to pain killers. We work to keep everyone active for life – even the “difficult cases!”
