An individual came to PinnacleCare with a diagnosis of chronic fatigue syndrome, a result of an adrenal insufficiency. She was experiencing multiple symptoms that eventually resulted in her inability to get out of bed

The Member joined PinnacleCare after experiencing this life-altering diagnosis for many years. She was not concerned about the diagnosis as much as she was interested in a doctor or treatment that could help improve her day-to-day quality of life.

After thoroughly reviewing her chart, her PinnacleCare Advocate looked into possible alternative therapy options. While researching treatments, the Advocate came upon an interesting alternative therapy technique. The Advocate then found a knowledgeable and trained practitioner in that area and arranged an appointment for the Member.

The Member’s treatments expanded to include an array of alternative therapy treatments. She began to see improvement in her health as she continued to see two alternative therapy practitioners up to 2 to 3 times a week.

It has been six months since the Member first started her therapy. At this time last year the Member could not even get out of bed. This year she just returned from a two week hiking trip!
