I have suffered from migraines, brain fog, and pain for two years due to a combat deployment. Certain VA providers would not listen to me or my symptoms and kept prescribing medications repeatedly. They also refused to connect me with community resources when I expressed my feelings of insecurity regarding a particular provider. I sought out Shannon as my last hope for relief from the unknown cause of my symptoms, and she listened to me and advocated for my wellbeing. She discovered that I have been experiencing seizures and is addressing my pain through Botox and seizure medications. Within just a couple of weeks of starting treatment, my brain fog has cleared, I’ve been sleeping better, my pain has lessened, and I feel more like myself again. She shows so much care and empathy and validated that my symptoms weren’t simply “in my head. " She’s helping me regain control of my life.
