I had hep C for 20 years and then seemingly overnight they invented a cure. I understand how you get married to being a “sick person”. But it all makes us who we are ❤️

Incredible news!!

I knew that desire to get to the root of the cause would open the doorway to this. Once we understand the root of the cause, we can pave a pathway to wellness from there - that has always been my belief in any case.

I began breaking chronic/pain cycles back in 2018. I’ve had 3 relapses during this time but have come to see them as all part of the journey.

The main focus for me has been year on year improvement and a continuation of tackling it from root cause.

I know it’s complex but I hope to see you writing more about this side of it?

Absolutely incredible news, Natalie. I'm thrilled for you! And (of course) you described it beautifully. Best of luck with your querying, too!

I'd appreciate knowing what you determined was the cause. It might help a friend.

I’m elated for you Natalie! Wow, I’d be shouting if I were you but I understand - you never know where you are in the journey, whether it’s the middle or towards the end. I relate with you on the writing = wet concrete haha.

I’m not sure if you’re comfortable sharing this openly but maybe in a private message in what treated your underlying migraines. (Asking because my brother is fighting chronic daily migraines and I’m curious.

There has been much shouting of joy! But it’s been a mixed bag of feelings in other ways. Happy to share, I will DM you.

Holy shite Natalie!!!! 😳 I wasn't quite sure what I was reading for a few minutes! This is AMAZING news for you. In the time that I've been reading your newsletter my migraines have gone from or or two a month to full blown daily preventative meds which work "for the most part" but not 100%. I'm constantly afraid that I'll just end up immune to everything and nothing will work anymore.

So I'm dying to know what your underlying issues are.

Again, I'm SO happy for you!!! And so glad I caught this update.

I know that fear very well. There is hope! Medical science is catching up to migraines, I hope my success story is the first of many to come. I'll shoot you a DM :)
