PERIPHERAL NEUROPATHY WARNING!
Brooklyn, NY — The most common
method your doctor will recommend to treat
your neuropathy is with prescription drugs
that may temporarily reduce your symptoms.
These drugs have names such as Gabapentin,
Lyrica, Cymbalta, and Neurontin, and are
primarily antidepressant or anti-seizure
drugs. These drugs may cause you to feel
uncomfortable and have a variety of harmful
side effects.

Sen. Kevin Parker returns
to 21st Senatorial District
By Tangerine Clarke
After an unsuccessful bid for New
York city comptroller, Senator Kevin
Parker who has served the 21st Senatorial
District in Brooklyn for the past 19
years, returned to office to serve out
his term.
Described as a prominent New York
State legislator, distinguished savvy
strategist, brilliant intellectual and elder
statesman, Parker said he is deserving
of his Senate seat, and will continue to
work hard for constituents, while seeking
another term when he comes up for
re-election in 2023.
He told Caribbean Life in an exclusive
interview via Zoom on Tuesday,
July 6, that he wakes up every day with
an attitude of gratitude to serve, and
hopes to start campaigning sometime
in January/February 2022, to convince
voters that “we can hold on.”
A member of the New American Task
Force, and former Majority Whip, the
lawmaker will host his Annual Harvest
Fest Backpack giveaway at the end of
August 2021, and will push for reform
in specialized education to benefit Black
and Latino students, who are at a disadvantage
when it comes to impartiality.
“We have to find a way to address
education equitably in our city, not
from a financial prospective but ensuring
that minority are in the classroom
they need to be in,” said Parker.
He pointed out that Stuyvesant High
School, for instance, enrolls 1000 freshmen
yearly, yet, only 10 are Black,
nothing that not enough conversation
or energy is behind this issue which
he plans on championing over the next
year, before his term ends.
Combating climate change is one of
the Senator’s major projects. “It is not
only about saving the planet, it is how
we create full-time jobs and a living
wage with benefits, in a clean economy,”
said the politician, who will continue to
leader the fight for legislation, so that
minorities can take advantage of those
opportunities in the context of creating
new clean energy in New York.
Asked how he will respond to constituents,
who say he abandoned them
to run for higher office, the long-time
politician quipped, “If someone decides
they wanted a promotion, it does not
mean they should be fired.
‘I ran for comptroller because
that position became available, and I
thought that my skills and abilities
lined up well with that position. I wasn’t
necessary looking to leave the Senate,
this opportunity came in the middle
of the pandemic, and our community
needed somebody, like me, who would
be equitable, represent the community
in the right way, and correct disparities
seen in communities of color during
the coronavirus pandemic.”
“I was doing well at a high level, and
if people in New York decided that I
wasn’t the right person for that promotion,
(comptroller) that is fine. I will
continue to do my job as a senator,
but I don’t think I should be fired just
because I thought I was entitled to a
promotion,” said Parker, adding, that
he will continue over the next year and
a half to work hard for the people.
He posited that the 60 percent of
Black and Latino businesses shuttered
due to the pandemic will remain closed,
compared to white counterparts, who
will have a higher percentage of reopenings.

The main problem is that your doctor has
told you to just live with the problem or
try the drugs which you don’t like taking
because they make you feel uncomfortable.
Our facility right here in Brooklyn, NY offers
you hope without taking those endless drugs
with serious side effects. (see the special
neuropathy severity examination at the end
of this article).
In order to effectively treat your
neuropathy three factors must be
determined.
1) What is the underlying cause?
2) How Much Nerve Damage
3) How much treatment will your condition
require?
The treatment that is provided at
AllCare Neurocorrective Wellness
has three main goals:
1) Increase your blood flow
3) Decrease your brain-based pain
The treatment to increase blood utilizes a
specialized low-level light therapy (not to
be confused with laser therapy) using light
emitting diode technology. This technology
was originally developed by NASA to assist
in increasing blood flow
The low level light therapy is like watering a
plant. The light therapy will allow the blood
vessels to grow back around the peripheral
nerves and provide them with the proper
nutrients to heal and repair. It’s like adding
water to a plant an seeing the roots grow
deeper and deeper.
The amount of treatment needed to allow the
nerves to fully recover varies from person to
person and can only be determined after a
detailed neurological and vascular evaluation.
As long as you have not sustained at least
85% nerve damage there is hope!
