Okay. So this is going to vary a little bit from my normal content, but, today’s a different day for me. And if you don’t know me or haven’t followed my journey, my name is Robbie English and I am a real estate broker and national real estate instructor based in Austin and San Antonio area. And about, oh, let’s see, 2010,
I had an accident. And ended up. Basically rupturing, all four discs in my lower back. So it’s been quite a journey and I went to a bunch of doctors and the doctors all agreed on the same response. Of surgery. And their response was basically 50% chance of being the same and 50% chance of being worse. So they gave me this wonderful prescription after a while of trying other different medicines called Gabapentin or Neurontin. The only thing bad about it is it’s like huge chemicals and nobody wants to put huge chemicals in their body. My journey continued.
And, that was 2010 and I’ve had serious pain every day, hard to walk and it takes me a while to get up in the morning and stuff like that. Of course just like anything. I have my good days and I have my bad days at the same time. I re-injured my back the Tuesday before. Easter. And it continued.
And I’m sitting currently in a wheelchair, which I teach in a wheelchair and stuff and can move around. And it doesn’t mean I can’t get up and walk. It just hurts to walk. So it’s gotten better and better. it took me really til mother’s day to be able to move andWalking Lucchese and Bentley was pretty much all I could do as far as getting out. And so today, these little Patches came and they are X 39. And there’s a link down below if you want to check them out.
So I’m kind of, kind of test them out. See what they’re all about. They are supposed to be a wellness patch. They’re supposed to, activate stem cells. And that’s something that I’ve kind of followed in, checked out. And of course this is a lot cheaper and easier. Then surgery and surgery doesn’t have any kind of promise and it uses your same stem cells that are in your body,
I’m not a doctor and I don’t know anything, but I’ve done a whole bunch of research and I have some friends who’ve done the stem cell treatments and. this idea of a needle going in between four disks that used to be dis and my back. It doesn’t sound like fun. So I am trying out the Lifeway, X 39 patches to see how that will really work.
I got some other patches as well, but I put one of these patches on an hour ago and feeling a little bit better. I don’t want it to be a psychosomatic response. So I’m going to kind of test it out and see over the. You know, Couple of days and weeks and see if it really makes a difference and I’m going to kind of report back and I’m going to use y’all as my accountability partner, if that’s okay and really try and see if it can change.
Not only my mobility, but the way that I feel every day and see if I can get some more stuff done because. When you’re in real estate and you’ve got to get up and go show houses and work with sellers. And sometimes there’s climbing steps and climbing stairs is not been a friend of mine at all. So this is something that I’m really looking forward to see how it really works.
This is going to be a lesson in maybe, hopefully not futility and that it will make a difference. So, I took this one little patch and put it right back here and we’re going to see what it does. So I kind of wanted to check in say, Hey, I’m doing something different. If you want to see what I’m doing, I’m going to put a link down below just so that you can check it out too. And I’m going to be reporting back and seeing if there really is a whole lot of difference, because I have a pretty severe injury.
Couldn’t do surgery. And I’m kind of looking forward to this and seeing what’s really going to happen and how things are going to go. So join me on the journey and we’re gonna see how this works. Have a great day. Again. I’m Robbie English.
