For many years I had
suffered from a strange set of problems EVERY NIGHT for
which many doctors had a wide range of opinions but provided
no solutions. I would wake up continually throughout the
night, often choking and gasping for air to the point that
it many times would propel me out of bed and onto the floor.
Other times I would experience a short period of total
paralysis upon awakening. The doctors had me see
"specialists" who were unable to figure out what the problem
was. The effects upon awakening also included extreme
headaches and dizziness that were so debilitating that it
made going to work each morning very difficult. Quite often
I would not be able to go to work because it would take many
hours until prescription drugs could relieved the problem.
In addition, I was told that I had a deviated septum.
In late 1995 I had a sleep study test where brain and
breathing activity are monitored while I slept in a
laboratory. The results were very bad. It showed the reason
for all my problems. I had a condition called sleep apnea
and would stop breathing about 40 times an hour, waking me
up continuously. The "specialist" stated that my condition
was serious and that I would have to sleep every night for
the rest of my life hooked up to a machine that would keep
me breathing while asleep. In addition, the "specialist"
told me I would probably require surgery that would remove
the soft palate area of my mouth.
I was told that people with this bad of a condition were at
very serious risk if they did not listen to the experts.
Fortunately, I discovered that most people who underwent the
surgery still had the problem-minus the removed body parts.
I refused that option. God gave us these body parts for a
reason!
Also, I was very uncomfortable sleeping hooked up to this
machine with a mask covering my face and all the attached
tubes. So that was also out of the question. I was facing
serious trouble and had no alternative.
Then, through Sam Biser's "The Last Chance Health Letter," I
read about the treatments of Dr. Howell. It sure seemed to
be a logical approach. He would treat the underlying CAUSE
of the problem WITHOUT drugs, surgery, or negative side
effects. This was both completely natural and entirely
opposite of the "specialists" who only treat symptoms with
drugs and surgery, and have a success rate which hovers
around zero. (This is shown by the steadily increasing
number of Americans whose lives are seriously impaired by
this problem every day.)
I first saw Dr. Howell in March 1996. After the first set of
his treatments, there was major improvement. During the
following 6 weeks I had only a couple of episodes of the
apnea and they were very minor. No more total paralysis or
gasping for air. About two months after the first treatment
I went again and at that point the problem was finally
eliminated! Photographs taken before and after even show
cosmetic changes.
It is now April 1998, more than two years later, and I no
longer have any apnea problems. NCR®has resolved this
terrible problem for good.
NOTE: Since then, I have tried to speak about this with my
local sleep apnea group over at the local hospital.
Unfortunately, the "sleep specialist", who had a room full
of people with breathing machines and masks and/or missing
body parts, would not allow me a few words to tell others
about this simple and natural technique. It appeared that
his only intention was to perpetuate these peoples'
suffering and sell machines and surgery and was not
interested in any way to relieve their never ending misery.
I now believe many of today's doctors need to be tested for
a conscience.
Dr. Howell may not be well known, but if you ask ANY of his
patients you would begin to realize his technique is
something very special. While this treatment has about 5-10
seconds of pain for most people, (for the first few
treatments), this may be its strongest testimony. Why would
people continue to take time off from work and fly thousands
of miles to experience painful treatments if not for the
amazing results? The answer is that they receive improvement
that no other technique could ever even come close to. His
office is a much different doctor's office, as people are
improving and regaining their lives after years of
suffering.
