“I have suffered with chronic fatigue for the last 3 years. I have seen 13 doctors and I felt like no one really understood what was going on or how to treat this illness. I really felt life for me was going to be horrible. My parents finally took me to Sunridge Medical Center in Scottsdale Arizona. For the first time I…”
“I was diagnosed with Rheumatoid Arthritis 5 years ago. After 2 years of pain, I moved to Arizona in hopes that the warm weather would help my joints – it did not. My doctors wanted me to take prednisone and methotrexate. After reading about all the side effects, I decided to find other options. I heard about Sunridge Medical and thought I…”
“I was diagnosed with breast cancer in my left breast 2 years ago. The first time around I had surgery and radiation for 6 months. Three months later they discovered that the cancer was back. My oncologist then recommended radiation and chemotherapy. I thought that I would be done after this. Nine months later a tumor was discovered on MRI. My doctor…”
“I was diagnosed with colon cancer in September of 06. Since then I have had emergency surgery followed by radiation and then chemotherapy. I have received 3 rounds of chemotherapy over the last 1 1/2 years. The side effects of the chemotherapy and radiation were horrible and I did not think that I was going to survive. My oncologist seemed frustrated because…”
“My illness began at age 27 with fatigue, stomach pain and joint stiffness. Over the course of about 18 months my symptoms list grew to include muscle weakness and cramping, seizures, night sweats, dramatic weight loss followed by excessive weight gain, insomnia, debilitating weakness, an inability to walk, and tachardia with a resting heart rate around 115 on average. I was sent…”

I wanted to avoid surgery and radiation and I did not like the idea of taking anti-hormone injections. The doctors at Sunridge listened to me and helped me find other…”
“My father was diagnosed with stomach cancer 6 months ago. The was referred to hospice because the oncologist felt that he was too frail to withstand any chemo or radiation. Not willing to give up we looked into alternative medicine and we found several treatments that we wanted to try. Several people had told us that we would have to go to…”
“I kept complaining about being low in energy, not able to keep weight off in spite of my not eating very much. I wanted to sleep all the time and that’s just not normally me. My doctor said it was just old age and that I should accept it. I thought I would try something different so i went to Sunridge Medical…”
“When I was diagnosed with stage 4 lung cancer with metastasis to my liver, I couldn’t believe it. I never smoked. I was healthy or at least I thought that I was. I ate healthy foods and ran 5 miles 3 times a week. I thought that I was healthy. My oncologist wanted to start chemotherapy immediately but I started doing my…”
