Roanoke Chiropractors : Drs. David and Dr. Susan Kilmer

I was told there was nothing they could find wrong, and gave me pain pills and muscle relaxers. My head was killing me, terrible constant headaches, and I was getting desperate.

They could've amputated at the shoulders just to get rid of the pain....

It was a hot July 4th, 1980 outside of San Diego. We had been jumping off a 60 foot cliff into a stream fed pool most of the day. I went up intending to do a "gainer", run off the cliff face and do a backwards somersault. Going off the edge, my foot slipped and I fell backwards, whacking my head on the rock face and then fell the 60 feet to the water below.

The next thing I knew, I woke up in the stream-bed clinging to a rope climbing up a 45 degree angled slope. I don't remember the interval but the next thing I do remember is becoming "aware" in the hospital, talking to the doctors.

I had a horrible headache, my neck was killing me, and they told me the couldn't find anything wrong.

They gave me pain pills and muscle relaxers and sent me on my way. I suffered terribly for the next month, was told repeatedly there was nothing wrong, and they even started looking at me funny when I requested stronger or different pain pills.

A friend on mine told me to go to the chiropractor, but I was afraid. My neck was killing me and I could barely turn it, and the thought of someone taking my neck and turning it quickly just seemed counter intuitive and not a good idea.
