    I slipped and fell on the ice 2yrs. ago, ever since then I have horrible pain in my lower back. I have had MRI's and X-ray's and nothing shows up on either one. I cant find a Doctor who will take the time to look further into the cause of my pain. The pain is getting worse and worse. I'm 25yrs. old, 5'5 and 117lbs. I wear good supportive shoes, I eat healthy, lots of veggies and fruit. I'm as active as my daily pain will let me be. I am so tired of dealing with this pain, can you please help me?

    Pains (both acute and chronic) could be handled by just eating hormonally correct meals. It works Like a miracle. Most drugs or herbs deal with only the symptoms and may even complicate the problem. A hormonally correct meal is the most powerful drug you would ever take for pains. It is far more powerful than all the best known drugs and herbs put together. Is this discouraging you from taking the medications prescribed by your health practitioner? No! Please do take your medications but without a hormonally correct meal, you may not achieve much. For more information, you can contact me at sebastianucheagwu@gmail.com.

    I have a lot of pain in both legs and if I don't take strong pain killers, I find it very difficult to walk. I've been to the hospital several times and sometimes only give Vitamin B and pain killers but nothing has helped. I think I am overweight, could that be the cause? Considering my height, I don't think I am very, very overweight. I weigh 114 kilograms and I am about 1.6 metres tall. The pain has even spread to my right hip. Please help!!!
