Overcoming Chronic Fatigue Syndrome (CFS) with ANS REWIRE Transcript:
Hello, my name is Alexandra, and I live in Wisconsin, USA, and I just want to share my experience with ANS REWIRE.
Four Years of Severe CFS at Around 20–25% Function
I got a diagnosis of chronic fatigue syndrome, and I was sick for a total of four years with this condition. Some of my worst symptoms were severe brain fog, crushing fatigue, headaches, migraines, pain, And because of all these physical symptoms, I experienced some anxiety and some depression.
The onset of my symptoms was pretty rapid. I basically became disabled in a matter of a few months and I didn't recover from that point. I did not have any good days or good hours. I was like under, 20 25 percent functionability all that time. my, my husband had to help with all the responsibilities that I had in our family.
He had to take care of our son, which he was five years old at the time. My, my parents had to move in. My mother had to, travel from Europe to basically take care of me for months at a time, a few times in this, period of four years.
Nearly Three Years of Treatments Without Improvement
For the first almost three years of my illness, I tried different treatments and different approaches to get better.
A very expensive treatment, none of them had any, any result, any positive improvement in my condition. And some, especially some sort of detox protocols, even made me worse. I put so much effort into finding the best medical care that I actually did not afford. I remember trying different treatments, being in the pharmacy and just looking around and thinking that the pill that will make me better is somewhere in there.
I never believed that I will not get better. I just did not know when I find the solution to this. I truly believe that I will get my life back, or if I don't, I just sometimes wanted all of, all of this to end. It was quite a few dark, periods of time in my life then.
Trying ANS REWIRE After Previous Brain Training Had Not Helped
I enrolled in ANS REWIRE almost three years from the onset of my symptoms.
I was very hesitant at first, as a year prior, I, tried another brain training program with no success. I was willing to do whatever it takes to, to get better. I was at around 25 percent functionality when I started the program. My recovery with ANS REWIRE took a little bit over a year. 14 months. To be exact, now being fully recovered, I can build my life back just the way I wanted, with, things that matter most.
Now I am able to travel, which is one of my biggest passions, and, spend so much more time with my son, as I feel I miss so much. in the previous years. The ANS REWIRE program was key into my recovery as I feel it give me the tools that I didn't have before when I tried to do it all on my own and I become very overwhelmed.
What Full Recovery Means to Alexandra
Recovery to me means a new chance of life. And I am so grateful to Dan for creating this program. For anybody looking at ANS REWIRE, I would say that you don't have to understand it all from the beginning. This program is a multilateral approach, and all you need is for you to have willingness and to be determined, to work with the program.
If you are willing to commit and fully engage with the program, I truly think that this might be the ticket back to full health for you.
