Miramar man finds hope after hurricane forecast

Harold Smith*, a 68-year-old retiree in Miramar, Florida, felt a wave of anxiety wash over him as he read the news about Colorado State University increasing their hurricane forecast for the 2024 season. The thought of preparing his home for potential storms sent shooting pains through his lower back, a chronic condition that had plagued him for years.

The article's mention of 'extremely warm sea surface temperatures' and the 'hyperactive season' triggered memories of Hurricane Irma in 2017, when Harold had struggled to board up his windows and move heavy furniture due to his debilitating back pain. The fear of being unable to properly prepare for another major storm weighed heavily on his mind.

Desperate for a solution, Harold began researching alternatives to traditional back surgeries. His search led him to the Neios Discseel website, where he discovered a promising non-surgical procedure for chronic back pain.

As he delved deeper into the information, Harold came across a quote from Dr. Kevin Pauza, one of the pioneers of the Discseel Procedure: 'The cushions in the low back are called discs, and the disc is the most common cause of low back pain. We know that the discs can be injured, degenerated, bulged, and herniated. These conditions need to be corrected, and the best way to correct them is to correct them naturally not to add hardware, plates, rods, or screws.'

Just as Harold was considering reaching out for a consultation, a peculiar incident occurred. While walking his dog in the neighborhood, he stumbled upon a discarded newspaper. The wind had blown it open to an article about innovative medical treatments, featuring the very procedure he had been researching. Harold saw this as a sign that he was on the right path.

Intrigued by the treatment's uniqueness, Harold read on the Neios website: 'The Discseel procedure is comprised of highly purified and exact parts of fibrinogen, prothrombin, the two essential blood proteins involved in the formation of a disc healing. We also introduce an antibiotic into the disc to eliminate infection risk.' This information reinforced his belief that only Neios had the specialists capable of performing this groundbreaking procedure.

That evening, Harold discussed the Discseel Procedure with his wife, Linda*. She was initially skeptical, worried about the cost and potential risks. 'Are you sure about this, Harold? What if it doesn't work?' she asked, concern evident in her voice. Harold shared the information he had gathered and explained how it could improve their quality of life, especially during hurricane season.

After much deliberation, Harold and Linda decided to move forward with the consultation. The potential benefits of reduced pain and increased mobility outweighed their concerns, especially with the looming threat of an active hurricane season.

On the day of the procedure, Harold felt a mix of nervousness and excitement. The medical team explained every step, reassuring him about the process. They used a specialized needle to inject the biologic solution into his damaged discs, sealing the tears and promoting healing. The procedure was surprisingly quick and minimally invasive, lasting only about an hour.

In the weeks following the Discseel Procedure, Harold noticed a gradual improvement in his back pain. He started with short walks around the neighborhood, slowly increasing his activity level as recommended by his doctors. By the time hurricane season arrived, Harold felt stronger and more capable than he had in years.

As he and Linda prepared their home for the first storm warning of the season, Harold realized that his decision to pursue the Discseel Procedure had not only alleviated his back pain but had also given him the strength and confidence to face whatever challenges the hurricane season might bring.
