Hello, I didn't want to ask for help, but feel I need to because I am having difficulties paying for the treatment that I need. As my health insurance will not cover the costs of my treatment plan. Recently, I realized that I needed to find out what I am dealing with my back and my leg because it's been bothering me slowly throughout the years. As this is affecting my quality of life, my happiness, my independence, my sleep, my morale, and my self esteem. I found a Chiropractor that would address the deeper issues as they were considerate, compassionate, and professional. The examination and the X-ray scans revealed that I have Scoliosis, https://my.clevelandclinic.org/health/diseases/15837-adult-scoliosis a degeneration in my spine that is off and is only a big part of why I am having this chronic pain. The majority of my pain is on the left side of my body that is inflamed from my mid-back down to my lower back. Also, the pain shifts to my right side that is affecting the circulation throughout my legs. My neck is off by 30 degrees as the normal neck is supposed to be at 40 degrees, mine is at 10 degrees. Part of my neck problem is stenosis as well. I originally thought I had full stenosis due to family history and know firsthand what this does.
The body scans reveal that my body temperature is at 77.3 degrees, while the normal is at 70 degrees. As this explains why I always feel like my back is inflamed as this feels constantly. This pain has been going on for more than a decade, why did I put this off due to caregiving for both of my parents at the time, now am caregiving for my elderly Mother.

Speaking of my elderly Mother who is going through her health issues not only with her Diabetes, but her anxiety, laziness, and idiosyncrasies as well. She has a 7.3mm aneurysm the size of a small snail behind the left eye. As this can be resolved through a non-invasive hybrid procedure of placing a coil or a mesh combination threaded through the groin and into the brain that would shrink the aneurysm overtime. This non-invasive procedure is from three to four hours followed by an overnight stay in the ICU and would go home the next day. Problem is she is so stubborn that she doesn't want to do anything about this aneurysm as she doesn't care as this can be resolved despite this being caught on time. Convincing her to do this procedure to save her life is a challenge. With the caregiving you give up certain things and as a result has cost me plenty including my health and relationships.

This fundraising would not only help me receive the treatment that I need that involves decompression therapy, neck therapy, x-rays, and other devices that would help me get the help and relief that I need via the sooner the better. Because I am in a lot of pain and suffering. If this Scoliosis and the Stenosis progresses can lead to more pain and suffering, surgery with greater loss of mobility, and paralysis. If anything happens to me, who would take care of my Mother?

Your support will not only help me, but will also pay it forward for others who are suffering more than me. I would really appreciate it if you could help me live without pain and be happier than I am presently. Because I don't want to live like this anymore as I hope you understand where I am coming from. Thank you.

PS. Update with my Mother, she had her latest scan which revealed her aneurysm is not as severe, but sits at the 7mm mark. As one angle was 7.3mm, another was 7mm that was shaped like a thermometer. She is doing the watch and wait, and will see how this is in six months.
With me, the inflammation has come down somewhat, but somedays the pain is easier to tolerate than others. I would really appreciate any help that can be used to not only help me before this gets any worse, but to pay it forward to others would be most appreciated, thank you.
