ME / CFS (Chronic Fatigue Syndrome)
I have had Myalgic Encephalitis (M.E.) for 14 years. I developed irritable bowel syndrome (IBS) symptoms after a few years and suffered in recent years from persistent yeast infections (chronic candida). In June 2010, after failing to get any relief of symptoms from conventional medical interventions and lack of interest from the medical profession, I went to Judy for a consultation. It was the best thing I could have done. Now nine months later, thanks to Judy’s dietary advice, supplements and herbal remedies, I am free of candida symptoms and have a pain free, normal functioning gut. She has also been working on my poor energy and immune function with some success. I have also begun a supplement regime to help restore my bone health as I have been diagnosed with osteoporosis. I am most grateful to Judy and would highly recommend her services.

Blood sugar imbalance, weight, energy
"I consulted Judy in January this year. I knew something was wrong. I was putting on weight despite exercise and felt run down, with low moods. Due to work and other pressures I wasn't eating properly and using caffeine and quick processed foods to get through a day. I had reached the limits of my endurance. It was literally garbage in, garbage out.
Judy's diagnosis and her advice regarding nutrition and supplements, which I have followed, has given me renewed vigor and energy. I have lost weight and feel energized. I have regained mental clarity. What's more, with Judy's nutritional advice I feel in control of what I eat (less addicted to sugar etc) and now choose to eat the most natural and fresh produce available. Consulting a nutritionist has literally changed my life"

MS - Multiple Sclerosis
I was diagnosed with PPMS (Primary Progressive Multiple Sclerosis) in 2001. A degenerative condition, there is no known cure.
I was seen by a consultant neurologist and whilst conventional medicine, in fact offers no medicine, physical support is available. I embarked on a round of alternative consultations in 2002 including homeopathy, acupuncture and medicinal herbs. I always maintained that I did get some benefit from all but by far the most positive effects came from Judy Patterson. After a year or so, family and work life took over and my visits to Judy lapsed. This year, I began feeling more negative effects of various symptoms associated with MS; most notably, lack of energy, nausea and digestive problems and I visited Judy again. It was a pleasant surprise to find that she had gained a nutritional qualification.
Since revisiting her practice she has guided me through a nutritional and herbal strategy which has made a huge difference. I feel physically and digestively better with loads more energy and without ‘daily dips’. There is no cure for MS but I can honestly say that Judy’s advice and regime have made a bigger difference than anything else.

Fertility support
Hi Judy,
I was a client of yours at your Inverurie practice a few years ago, and now have 2 beautiful children. I wonder if you still have my notes, as I would like to try for another baby. I have discovered that I have the same hormonal problems as I did back then, low progesterone levels and poor ovulation.
At the time, you made me 2 different herbal combinations to use during the first half and second half of my cycle. Please let me know if I can order them as it was very effective at regulating my cycle.
Your support and expertise was key to restoring my fertility, after losing 3 pregnancies I really thought I would never be a mother. Finding you helped me avoid expensive and unnecessary medical intervention. The saliva test you recommended gave an accurate reading of my hormonal levels and you made me the right herbs to support my body functions.
I cannot forget the nutritional advice either, sunflower seeds, pumpkin seeds and alfalfa shoots growing in my kitchen. I had absolute confidence in you and followed your instructions to the letter. In Feb five years ago, I found out I was pregnant and sailed through my pregnancy, my son was born in October. And then, 2 years later, my little girl was born.
It is a real pleasure to have met you and I wish you all the best in your practice.
Kind regards

Chronic diarrhea
After being bedridden for almost two weeks with violent sickness and diarrhea I was left with a chronic diarrhea problem that affected my work and social life. I visited the doctor many times and spent a week in hospital without any answers or respite from this uncomfortable condition. I turned to Judy Patterson who listened and treat me as an individual. This was the beginning of my recovery. Over just a few friendly sessions, herbal medicine, probiotics, supplements and a change of diet, I started to finally get results. I am now able to enjoy life without being held back by illness.

Bowel cancer post-operative support
I first contacted Judy a few months after surgery for rectal cancer. I was suffering from ongoing digestive problems and I sought her advice. She was very thorough and professional in researching my condition, for which she prescribed various dietary supplements. Following a Comprehensive Digestive Stool Analysis test that she organized for me through a private laboratory, she was also able to prescribe a highly individualized course of herbal remedies and probiotics. Both of these approaches led to a big improvement in my health. They calmed my bowel condition so that I am now able to live a much more normal life. I am much indebted to Judy.

Food intolerances and digestive disturbance
Having suffered for years with bouts of vomiting, upset stomach, rashes, mystery illness, heartburn and tiredness to name but a few of my many problems, all mixed with stress and frequent doses of antibiotics, I felt ill on a daily basis and never seemed to be getting any better. If anything things were getting a lot worse. An antacid helped for a while but lost its benefits after taking it for 4 years. By then, everything I ate seemed to disagree with me. Tests proved negative except that I had a low iron reading
Talking to a friend one day, she mentioned a case of someone with a similar complex health problem who was helped by a herbalist. Searching the internet for someone in my area I came across Judy Patterson, a Medical Herbalist in Inverurie.
To cut a long story short she has managed to get me back on track and sort out my many problems caused by food intolerance and past lifestyle. It is not a quick fix and you have to be strict and follow the diet restrictions and instructions that you are given. Reading the books Judy lent me also helped enormously as I found that most of my unexplained ailments were all down in writing and they hadn't been in my head or due to my age as I had frequently been told!
Finding Judy Patterson has helped me lead a normal life again, although I will always have to have to follow a careful diet. The only downside really is that the medication can be a bit pricey, but how can you put a price on your health?

ME / CFS
I am what is known as a 'heart sink' patient to GP's as I have ME/CFS. This condition is not well understood by most doctors and even the sympathetic ones have been unable to offer much to help me get better.
Judy's gentle, non-judgmental and deep interest in me, not as a complex case, but as a human being has been a lifeline. She has improved my diet and provided medicine and supplements to support the body, but just as important, she has helped me to deal with ME from an emotional/dare I say 'spiritual' place. If you believe in the placebo effect, you will have some understanding of the power of the mind on real physical symptoms and conditions; Judy has helped me to pay more attention and to learn more about myself from an holistic perspective and that has definitely helped me to heal.
Judy has more than surpassed my expectations and I know I am only recovering so well because of her fantastic support and knowledge.

Anxiety
"Three months ago I sustained a terrifying event, which in the space of eighteen hours, shattered my life. Most significantly, it left me in a state if “fight or flight” …the adrenaline switch had been flicked on and refused to go off. Day and night, for almost two months, I was in a constant anxiety mode. I couldn’t think calmly or logically (so essential at this time) and I was spiraling free-fall into a dark pit of fear - real terror. A kindly GP was only able to offer beta-blockers or anti-depressants… for me this was not an option. All I had left was myself - my health, and I did not want to trade the pit of fear for the whirlpool of drugs. I needed to be well and clear thinking. Then I remembered Judy. I made a journey to Inverurie and was thoroughly listened to and understood - emotionally and physically. I received wise lifestyle advice, reflexology and two lots of “potions”. The results were outstanding. Within forty-eight hours the adrenaline had subsided and my nights were less troubled, after ten days I was aware that my inner turmoil had calmed. One month and another visit on, I have a sense of well-being, my strength is returning and my brain function is clearer. The consultations made me feel soothed and healed. But it also seems like a partnership - Judy working with me to specifically tailor therapy to my needs, while enabling me to listen to and work with my body - I have a sense of control. For me, Judy’s approach is effective and safe."
