Left Hip Pain, Left Upper Thigh
Pain, Ankle Pain, Low Back Pain, Avascular Necrosis - Hilda (from Garden
Grove, CA) This 54 year old Hispanic female had extreme left hip pain that
radiated down to her thigh, knee, and ankle for 2 months. The pain was so
severe that she started to use a wheelchair. She consulted chiropractors,
orthopedic surgeons, and had MRI's and x-rays done, which turned out to be
negative. She was then diagnosed with avascular necrosis and was told by
the orthopedic surgeon to refrain from putting any weight on her left hip.
Physical therapy only aggravated her hip pain more and she needed a lot of pain
medication to numb the pain. Hilda also complained of low back pain for
over 20 years from an auto accident. After 2 treatments with Dr. Tong, she
had no pain and did not need any pain pills. She is also not using her
wheelchair anymore. She is also emotionally more stable and secure now,
whereas in the past she had fear and was emotionally uncertain.

Low Back Pain, Right Knee Pain, Thrombocytopenia, Left Sided Weakness from
Stroke, Depression - Judie (see #165 8-14-04,
from Escondido, Ca) This 61 year old Caucasian
female had a stroke 5 years ago which caused her to have left sided weakness,
numbness, and pain ever since. She also complained of low back pain and
right knee pain. Three years ago, she was diagnosed with a low platelet
count. She had a bone marrow biopsy, spleen scan, and blood work done,
which all came back negative. She went to the Mayo Clinic where doctors
wanted to take out part of her spleen. All of the above caused Judie to
become extremely depressed to the point where she could not get out of
bed. After 2 treatments with Dr. Tong, she has no more pain. She
does not need to drink wine and take a SOMA in the afternoon anymore. She
is also able to wear her shoes on her left foot now without taping them to her
foot. The strength is gradually coming back to her left side. Most
importantly, she is no longer depressed.

the last 5 years. Anything he ate would cause severe bloating, pain, and
fatigue. After 7-8 treatments with Dr. Tong, he has no more knee pain, no

treatments, she had no more pain. Eva was also diagnosed with Retinitis
Pigmentosa 19 years ago, which made her legally blind and color blind. She
only had tunnel vision After NBE treatments, she can see bold bright

participated in rough sports and hurdling when she was younger. She fell
on her wrists from hurdling and as a result, started developing wrist pain a few
years ago. She was diagnosed with osteopenia 1 year ago on x-ray.
Her doctor told her she had the wrists of a 70 year old. She would type
for 20 minutes and start to experience pain and fatigue in her wrists. She

for hours without pain.
Leg Pain, Back Pain, Lypoma, Candida, Chronic Fatigue, Tinea Pedis,

#164 8-7-04,
from Henderson, Nevada) Cheri first came to us in December 2000 with complaints
of right leg pain extending into her back due to a 7 X 9 cm lypoma in her
leg. She was recommended by two doctors to have it resected, for which she
refused. She went to 15 doctors who prescribed Tylenol with Codeine for
pain, which provided very little relief from her pain. She also tried
chelation therapy for 3 months, which caused her tumor size to increase.
She also tried herbs, ozonated water, and 35% hydrogen peroxide to relieve her
pain, all to no avail. Although she had her gallbladder removed, she still
suffered from gallbladder pain. Cheri also suffered from candida, causing
immense abdominal pain and bloating. She had extreme fatigue as
well. All of the above caused Cheri to fall into a deep depression.
After treatments with Dr. Tong, her lypoma has shrunk in size and has not caused
her pain for the last 3 years until recently. She does not have
nightblindness any more. She also used to have fear going over bridges
which she does not experience anymore. She is no longer depressed
and generally a very happy and bubbly person. Her husband, Mark,
also came to see Dr. Tong for profuse sweating. After 2 treatments, his
sweating has improved.
Pelvic Pain, Pain with Intercourse, Hormonal Imbalance, Irregular Periods,

Pain, Feet Pain, Fatigue - (Andrea, see # 89 9-7-02,
#116 5-3-03, #184 1-8-05
from Rancho
Cucamonga) - This physician has suffered from irregular periods for 10 years and
pelvic pain as well as painful intercourse for 2 years. She consulted 3
doctors including a gynecologist who diagnosed her with polycystic ovarian
syndrome, or Stein-Levanthal Syndrome. She had cysts all over her ovaries,
which were causing her much pain. She was put on birth control, which
regulated her period, but did nothing to help her pain. She has had 2
treatments with Dr. Tong in September of 2002 and her pain is now completely
gone. Andrea returned for treatment of fatigue, back pain, and pain at the
bottom of her feet. She was recently on a clinical rotation where she had
to use her hands extensively, which she thinks has caused her fatigue and back
pain. After one treatment with Dr. Tong, her energy was rejuvenated and
she no longer has back pain. Dr Tong explains that Andrea's kidneys were
affected which were causing her symptoms.

Breast Cancer, Chemotherapy, Bone
Pain, Low Back Pain, Leukopenia, Dry Mouth, Constipation, Fatigue, Depression - Kay (see
#156 5-22-04, #158 6-19-04,
from San Diego, CA) is a 41 year old woman diagnosed with Inflammatory breast
cancer 5 months ago. She was treated in the Cancer center in San Diego
with 4 months of chemotherapy (using 3 chemicals). The side effects from
the chemotherapy treatments included constipation, upset stomach, nausea, and fatigue.
She also started having bone pain throughout her body, lower back pain, and
severe dry mouth since starting chemotherapy. Every time she got a
chemotherapy treatment her white blood cell (WBC) count would drop, one time
almost zero, which would have been detrimental for her if she had a severe
infection. She was then given a chemical to stimulate her bone marrow to
create more WBC's. The injection of this drug was expensive and painful,
causing more bone pain. In fact, the first injection of drug that she
received made her WBC decrease from 1500 down to 500. After her very first NBE
treatment, her constipation was completely resolved Continued treatments
relieved her of the bone pain. Her WBC count
went from 500 to 5200. She decided to discontinue chemotherapy and only
receive Dr. Tong's treatment. After 10 treatments with Dr. Tong within a 4
month period of time, her energy has increased, she has no more depression, and
she no longer suffers from any of the side effects of chemotherapy. Most
importantly, her tumor size has shrunk by 30% from 6cm to 4cm. It is
softening and becoming less dark. Her back pain has also lessened and her
WBC has stabilized.

Arthritis, Right Knee Pain, Spinal Stenosis - Albert (see # 136 9-27-03,

skeptical. He had his first treatment 4 days ago and his pain is now
gone. That same day he went fishing and walked a quarter of a mile with
all of his fishing gear without any pain for the first time in 2 years. He
is now walking up hills and everywhere without pain. Al has returned to
