Katy is back for her 2 year update! She has done phenomenally well in the past two years, building even further on the progress she made in her first year on the Paddison Program. [See her first episode here]. We discuss how:
Katie was diagnosed with juvenile idiopathic arthritis when she was just 10 months old
She was put on antibiotics after a series of ear infections and a month after she had her first RA symptoms
She was put on baby aspirin, prednisone and pancreole with high dosage until she was five
She was then put on methotrexate and starting at 10 she switched to Enbrel
When she started her first job her doctor put her on Vicodin to manage the pain, but dosage went up and side effects started to appear
Katy went into a depressive state but soon after she found Clint's TEDx Talk and the Paddison Program
Along with the diet change, Bikram Yoga helped immensely
She has tapered off Vicodin and her pain levels have dropped
Katy represented Oregan in a yoga competition and overcame many self confidence fears to do so
Katy has spoken internationally about her story on the Isle of Man
Katy’s diet has expanded in the past two years and she loves her food that keeps her healthy
