 I came to Dr. Ruscio at the end of 2013 and by the time I found him, I had already been battling small intestinal bacterial overgrowth or SIBO for about two years and I had really come to the end of my rope. I had exhausted all the options in my area. I live in North Carolina and the very best hospitals that were at my disposal I had already been to and received testing and treatment and they kind of got to the point where they had nothing left to offer me. So I went on a journey to try to gain my life back and that brought me to finding Dr. Ruscio online and from the first time we talked I knew that he got it. He understood the things that I had learned on my own through my journey that diet and nutrition were very important especially when dealing with a digestive disorder and he did some early testing and found other issues such as adrenal fatigue, candida overgrowth and a parasite. So things that had gone undiagnosed the whole time he was able to find and treat in a very short amount of time and get me to feel him much better. And as you can see I am in the music business. I actually have a recording studio and an independent record label and publishing company so it's a very fast-paced very challenging industry and I was really having a hard time keeping up for a while there and just maintaining mental clarity and especially energy to be able to go through some of the long sessions that are required to meet deadlines and I'm happy to say in the past six months that I've been working with Dr. Ruscio my energy is way up, my mental clarity, my mood, happiness has all returned and the minor digestive issues that are still there were continuing to tweak and things are getting better every day so I know that my life will be fully back on track in a matter of days now whereas before I wondered if it would ever happen and I just can't encourage you enough to work with Dr. Ruscio especially if you've gone down the path that I have and you've run out of options with conventional medicine and other treatment forms and he's always on top of the latest findings. I never bring anything to him that he hasn't already heard of and I just take a lot of comfort in that and also in the fact that he's so encouraging whereas my doctors before were talking about just making me comfortable and trying to you know get some kind of quality of life left and as a matter of fact my last doctor before coming to Dr. Ruscio asked me would I be okay if this was as good as it ever got and I told him no and the first time I talked to Dr. Ruscio it was completely different. He had every bit of confidence that we can work together and get these things knocked out and give my life back and he was absolutely correct so thank you Dr. Ruscio. I can't thank you enough and God bless you so glad I found you.
