I take you back to what my health and life looked like before everything began, the first neurological symptoms I noticed, and how those symptoms gradually progressed into something far more frightening and debilitating. At my worst, I was dealing with severe neurological symptoms that affected nearly every part of my life, including REM behavior disorder that caused me to violently punch in my sleep night after night, along with brain fog, cognitive problems, anxiety, depression, and many other symptoms that made everyday life incredibly difficult.&amp;nbsp; In this episode, I talk about:  &amp;nbsp;What my health was like before I became sick &amp;nbsp;The first symptoms I noticed and how they progressed &amp;nbsp;My experience with severe neurological symptoms and REM behavior disorder &amp;nbsp;Brain fog, cognitive issues, anxiety, and depression &amp;nbsp;Going to doctors, undergoing testing, and searching for answers &amp;nbsp;The frustration of not understanding what was happening to my body &amp;nbsp;Discovering Medical Medium\u00ae information and why it became a turning point for me &amp;nbsp;The diet, lifestyle, and protocol changes I began making &amp;nbsp;Which symptoms started improving first and which took longer &amp;nbsp;The point when I finally realized, \u201cI'm actually getting better\u201d What my health is like today&amp;nbsp; The biggest lessons I learned from going through it all&amp;nbsp;  Much of the information and protocols I discuss in this episode are based on what I've learned through Medical Medium and what I personally implemented during my own recovery. More than 8 years later, I've been able to leave those debilitating neurological symptoms behind. Going through that experience ultimately changed the direction of my life and is a major reason I'm so passionate today about helping others who are struggling with chronic symptoms and searching for answers. If you're in the middle of your own health struggle right now, I hope sharing my story gives you some hope, perspective, and encouragement that things can change.
