Just wanted to update you on what is going on so you can place it on your email if you want to. I guess you can say the impossible happened. Before I came down for the month in October, I went to my urologist to ask if it would be possible for me to have the bladder pacemaker removed if my health continued to improve. The nurse told me that the bladder pacemakers never came out unless they never worked or if the battery needed to be replaced. When I left that office I was determined that I would be the first one that had it removed because I no longer needed it. On March 1st, my bladder pacemaker was removed. I was so excited to have this surgery!  (I have not been able to say that about any of the other surgeries that I have had.) The doctor was even thrilled because the surgery went so well without any complications. That is very big because with my previous surgeries my blood pressure would always go up and they would have a hard time controlling it and my oxygen levels would always drop and I would have to wear oxygen for a while after I would wake up. No such problems this time! It was actually the easiest surgery I have ever had.      The other great thing that has happened is that I completed my first 5K. When I left my house in July 2009, I had to crawl up the 4 steps on my deck to get in my back door. March 20th, I finished the 5K in 44 mins. and 37 secs. I realize that I did not set any world records but it was a huge accomplishment for me. It is only the beginning! I plan on completing another one this summer and running most (if not all) of it!      I know that this summer is going to be great because for once I am looking forward to getting outside and finding new ways to get in the exercise and having fun while doing it! It is a shame that I never took advantage of this before but I know, after everything I have been through, I will appreciate it for the rest of my life. I am looking forward to all the new adventures that lay ahead of me.      I hope this can offer some encouragement for someone who thinks that things will never change or get better, because it can! I am living proof! All the things that I was told, by the medical profession, that I would just have to accept----I will no longer accept!  All the things that I was told that I would never be able to do again-----I am looking forward to doing and even going way past those limitations!      Looking forward to seeing you soon!                        Kelli

My name is Kelli May, I am 39 years old and my story began 9 years ago.

My first problems really began in 2000 when a surgery went bad. That along with other medical history problems only made this issue worse. The reason

I gave this background is so you can understand that things only went down hill for me, quite literally.

I have experienced a lot of illnesses, sicknesses, surgeries, procedures, injections and medications since 2000. And after 2 years of that, I began to think that was the way it was meant to be.

My problems began with an UTI and then quickly went into Interstitial cystitis. The first 2 years were difficult but they only got worse from then on as during this time I also experienced other medical problems and was diagnosed with:

Bladder spasms, fibromyalgia, osteoarthritis, bursitis, arthritis, stroke (TIA), myoclonic jerks and tremors, elevated cholesterol, liver disease, depression, anxiety attacks, laryngeal spasms, sleep apnea, migraines, decreased hormone levels, decreased adrenal gland function, pituitary tumor,numerous sinus surgeries, numerous injections, numerous surgeries (too many to mention), and the list goes on.

Once things began to get bad the doctors began to send me to numerous specialists. Then after a while the doctors began to say there was nothing they could do. I would have to go home and deal with my pain. Their advice was to continue to see my family doctor because he could continue to give me pain medications and other medications that I would need.

At my age, that was not a good and acceptable option. When I asked if there was really nothing else they could do, the doctor told me he could cut out my bladder. Not going to happen.

I finally did find a medical doctor who did help me, to the extent that he knew of. However, the pain and problems still continued to escalate. Where ever I went they only treated symptoms and that was mainly with medications. Those medications lead to the need for further medications due to complications/side effects. (I should have known better or actually thought about it since I have been a RN since 1995.

But when I became so "sick" I just did whatever they told me too. I completely gave all my power to the doctors. Even if I questioned them and it did not make sense I would still do what they told me to because they were the Doctors and I was suffering. The problem was that no one could find the cause
of my problems or even look for it. I was sent away time and time again with those negative thoughts that "there was nothing else they could do for me".

I had finally given up. I could not accept the fact that I would have to live the rest of my life in any such state. I decided it was not fair to me or to my family. I decided in May 2009, that I was done fighting a losing battle.

However, in July 2009, all of that changed. That was when I first visited Hot Springs. My husband and I were looking to get a massage while we were there.
I had found that a massage would help relief the intensity of the pain that I suffered. Normally, it would last for a few hours or if I was lucky a day.

That all changed the first time my husband and I met with Donald Piranty at the Pain Relief and Massage Studio for a consultation, we talked about the
"major" problems I had been experiencing over the last 4 years. The very next day he did a Myotherapy treatment.

Let me tell you, I had been on plenty of pain and other types of medications, that were suppose to help relieve some of my pain, over the last 4 years without much relief. I knew after the very first treatment that something had changed. When I got off the table so much of my pain was gone. I could not have believed it. And I would not have believed someone if they told me how much it would help if I had not experienced it.

I had been spending most of my time in bed and in pain. I had not been moving unless absolutely necessary for several months. I was finally able to move again without all the pain.

While we were there for the last 3-4 days, I walked more than I had in 4 years. When I returned home, I had people approach me and ask me what had happened. They could see a change in me and I did not have to say a word. That was an absolutely wonderful feeling alone!

I returned for another weekend the first of Sept. to receive another round of treatments.At that time, I had made the decision that I would return for a month. This was something that Donald and I had talked about before. I had decided that it was a commitment that I had to make. I knew that I had to be able to commit to this if I was going to change all those bad habits that I needed to deal with and address. I returned on 9/28/09 to stay for a month of "boot camp". I knew I had nothing to lose and everything to gain. And I did! This has been the greatest miracle I have ever received, the ability to have my life back and be able to think about the future and what it could hold for me and my family.

When I left my house in July, I had to literally crawl on my hands and knees to get up 4 steps into my backdoor. Not anymore! I was also using a cane as needed when I came to Hot Springs in July. After my first set of treatments, I never used that cane again! Now I am doing stretches/exercises, water aerobics, walking, line dancing and looking forward to more. I am so glad to be alive and moving again.

Words alone can't express my thanks and gratitude for the difference Donald has made in my life. I am so thankful that the first time (or any of the following times) that he did not send me away without any hope. He has been the only one to encourage me, push me and not let up on me. He has been completely open and honest with me. Which is what I needed to get up and get "over it". But he never sent me away saying "there is nothing else I can do for you, you will just have to live with the pain the rest of your life". (Like so many others did.) He told me the complete opposite. He told me I could do it! I just had to make my mind up! He told me there was nothing stopping me. Not only did he tell me but he showed me. He guided, pushed and helped me along the way. Thanks Donald! He is great at what he does for a profession, a wonderful "coach", resource and someone who will truly listen. I don't mean someone who will sit there and nod their head but he truly opens his ears and heart and listens to what you are saying and looks for the cause not the symptom.

So, if you are suffering with pain, think you have a problem (before it gets any worse), or just need to relax--I completely and totally recommend Donald.He has truly changed my life. He actually showed me that I still had a life to live for and there was no reason or place to quit. I am (and so are my family and friends) truly amazed at the change in me and my health. And it is so nice to be able to say health instead of that other word (I have decided that illness is a bad word). Good luck and enjoy every day that you are blessed with. Kelli

Hey friend! Just thought I would drop you a note that might cheer you up today (just in case you are dealing with "people" that are like I used to be..hard work I know!). I am so thankful for everything. It used to be that if I walked, it would have been out of necessity or unhappily. Now I am so thankful to be able to breath in the fresh air and take in the sunshine and I do not take forgranted the opportunity to get up and walk because I just want to.

Now when my stomach feels tension, it is because of those exercises (the sit ups and crunches-Donald style). But I feel so great when I get them done. I now enjoy doing house work,especially when I turn that music on, it helps me "move" a lot easier.

I also went to a person that looks in your eyes and tells you what is going on with your body. I did it as a experiment to see what they did not see now. Well, I expected good news but I received amazing news. The things she saw were mainly digestion and hormone related. She did see some things that were in the process of healing. She stated that it takes longer for things to show up in the eyes than in the physical body. She told me that when the 2 lines are closer together that means it is healthier. She stated that if the lines are slightly apart that means there may be a slight problem or it means they are in the process of healing.She stated I had several areas that were closer together in areas where there had been problems, so that was a great sign. But she never said anything about my bladder. So when she finished I asked her if she seen anything on my bladder and she stated she did but it wasn't anything that was a problem.So I asked her what she actually saw.

She stated that she wanted to look at it closely again so she would not tell me anything wrong. She then explained that when you have had a problem you will have a scar in that area of your eye just like you would if you have surgery and have a physical scar. However, when things heal you will see a line over the top of that area that is called a "healing line(s)". She stated that she saw healing lines on top of my bladder. The thing I had the hardest time letting go of and have dealt with all my life had healing lines on it!!!!!!!!!! I would have shouted all over that place but I was afraid they would have taken me out in a straight jacketand on a stretcher. So I just shouted on the inside and later when I was alone. I just thought you would like to hear about this. My miracle has already occurred but I can also see that it is continuing to grow into even more and greater things. Hope this will give you encouragement (it definitely did me). Just another confirmation. Thanks for all the encouragement you have given me. Hope you have a great day and weekend. See ya soon! Love, Kelli
