My Reliv Story of Hope

In March of 1996 I was at the lowest point in my life. Six years of chronic pain following a surgery in my neck for a herniated disk in 1990 had turned me into a person I didn’t know any more.

I never got a good night’s sleep and in the morning I’d wake up again with pain in every part of my body. The constant pain of fibromyalgia which had been diagnosed shortly after the surgery, arthritis in all my joints – along with a degenerative disk disease - and daily migraines was what I was living every day of my life. I went to bed in pain, tossed and turned all night in pain, and woke up in pain.

During those six years I tried everything I could find including all kinds of nutritional supplements and medications. I also saw a physical therapist and a chiropractor weekly and nothing relieved the pain.

When my brother called in March I had nothing to lose when he recommended I try Reliv nutrition. In the first month I didn’t notice anything but in the next four months I began to feel a little better some days and my depression was gone.

Month after month I began to feel better, my migraines just stopped happening, and by the end of the first year I was 80 – 90% pain free. Over the second year more and more of the pain in my joints went away and by the end of two years I felt like a new person. Today I’m pain free, symptom free and medication free.

I’ve also had results with allergies and sinus infections. None of these chronic conditions control my life today and I have a quality of life I never thought I’d be living again.

Two months ago I was x-rayed having pulled something in my hip area. The doctor showed me the x-rays saying "there's no arthritis in your spine" and he couldn't believe I had ever been diagnosed with a degenerative disk disease.
