- Gary, I've watched you for years! Please help me get my life back! I'm a 37-year-old ex-collegiate athlete whose life has been so diminished that I'm only getting through the workday to keep my insurance. I had COVID in April 2023. In May 2023, I woke up in the middle of the night and thought I was having a heart attack. I experienced left arm numbness, facial numbness, and chest pain. My heart rate was 170, and BP was 210/191 upon arrival at the ER. Labs and scans have all been normal, and this happens monthly for the past two years! I can't live like this. Mayo has not been able to put the pieces together, and western medicine lets me down time after time. Naturopathic doctors have taken every penny I have. I follow a strict diet and supplement protocols that just make me feel worse! Please help me get my life back—to be the mom and wife my family deserves!
