IB-Stim Patient Testimonial – Victoria
This device helped my daughter so much. Seriously, it has helped to rapidly better her quality of life and we are so thankful for it. She was struggling to attend school, her social life was severely impacted, she had to drop out of athletics, her body was turning against her, and her mental state was rapidly deteriorating to severe depression.
We were treated by several doctors but none of them could narrow down the true cause. Pharmaceuticals only made her feel worse and she experienced every possible side effect, with no benefit, it seemed. She has regained a huge part of her life. It’s a truly amazing difference. This device is amazing and my daughter’s results were amazing.
Emma’s experiences with IB-Stim have been nothing short of amazing.
Emma had gone 9 months of horrible stomach pain that led to many E R visits. Her daily life was being affected from the severity and frequencies of her episodes. When she would have an episode of pain she would literally curl up in the fetal position and just wait for it to pass. Sometimes it would be quick and gone with in 15-30 minutes, other times it would last for hours and we would end up in the Emergency room.
Every test came back normal, and medicines wouldn’t help that much. The IB-Stim started working immediately. She went out to eat Mexican food the next evening to see if it would work. For the 1st time she was able to eat what she wanted and did not end up sick and in severe pain. She has been pain free since! As a parent it’s so hard to see your child in pain with no answers or relief. To see her crying in pain and her life being affected is heartbreaking!
Now she is able to do her schoolwork, she is looking for a job, and is able to enjoy life again. To go from 9 months of pain to nothing is almost unfathomable! We are so appreciative to have been given this opportunity! I hope others are as blessed and able to use the IB-Stim and experience this kind of pain relief!
Our son, Lincoln, has a severe food sensitivity to dairy. What many didn’t know is that he has suffered with chronic stomach pain the majority of his life. He rarely shared the fact that he was in pain with others. It was just what he thought he would have to deal with in his life. Seeing him in pain nightly was pure heartache for us. He needed ice packs or heating pads and would clench in pain. We felt so helpless as parents. We have tried everything from Dr. to chiropractor to diet and GI scopes.
We have learned good info from these but nothing took away his pain. All tests came back negative for any serious issues which we were blessed , but we still had no answers. Last spring I came upon a post from a high school friend who wrote about her son and his chronic stomach pain. It was EXACTLY the same symptoms as Lincoln was experiencing.
Her son had a device called IB Stim placed on his ear to alleviate his pain. It was a success and I reached out to learn more. After researching and ruling out any serious issues, we decided to go for it! It has been a month long process of having the IB Stim on his ear. Today we took it off and am happy to report we have a pain free boy!! To not have him come home from school in pain or lay awake at night is a miracle! He finally gets to be a child and not live in constant pain. We pray things stay great as they have for my friends little guy!
I share our story so that we may hopefully help out more families who have children who suffer from chronic stomach pain. Our Dr. was experienced in this and we all felt very comfortable with it. Placement stung and burned for about 5-10 minutes and then he was pain free for remainder of time it was placed. He had no trouble sleeping or playing sports. Each time we had a new device placed it got easier and easier. The IB-Stim support team was absolutely amazing! They were so responsive and made the process go quickly and smooth. One of the best companies I have ever dealt with! It’s a miracle to have our son happy and healthy and living a pain free life like all children should have!
