Reflections

Several years ago my uncle damaged nerves in his neck while working on an automobile. His damage caused his hands to shake so bad, he needed to use a straw to drink anything. Recently he tried a solution in speed gel prescribed by his doctor which he rubbed on his back and neck. His shaking has drastically decreased and his discomfort is nearly gone. The really neat thing is he has an ulcer and the topical form allows it to bypass his stomach. For more information concerning this or any medical problem, contact your doctor or Gary. Your doctor and Gary want the best for your health.

YOUR HEALTH ANSWER


If you have any special health problems which make taking medications difficult, having them compounded could be your answer. Sugar free - especially nice for diabetic patients. Preservative, lactose, alcohol and dye free are nice for our allergic patients. Certain others are needed but can't be taken by mouth due to ulcers or digestive problems. Many other forms are available - Suppositories, gels, creams and injections. Contact your doctor or Gary for your special medical needs.
