One of our patients was having trouble focusing, and as a college student, that meant her grades were taking a hit. Of course, not everyone who has less-than-desirable grades should be treated for ADHD, but she presented with all the right symptoms. As such, treatment for ADHD was appropriate for her.

‍

Before starting Vyvanse® (Lisdexamfetamine), she had 8 C’s, 8 B’s, and 3 A’s in her college transcript. After some time with treatment, she was able to achieve 13 A’s and 3 B’s. What a change! She remarks that the medication has been life-changing for her, as she’s now able to focus on her school work and string her thoughts together more lucidly.


If you feel like you can’t focus, talk to your doctor and see if you might be suffering from ADHD. Learn more about ADHD’s signs and symptoms here.

I want you to know that depression is decidedly not that; it’s a much deeper and persistent emotional pain that we can’t shake.

The Nitty Gritty Of Trigger Point Injections

Many of us suffer from chronic pain in various areas of our bodies. Often, the go-to solutions don’t work as well as we hope, and they can have damaging side effects. For example, acetaminophen can take a toll on the liver, while ibuprofen may damage the lining of the gut over time. Rest doesn’t always help, and, while physical therapy can be a great long term solution, sometimes we need things that are more immediate.
