A tribute to John Frusciante and RHCP jam's by Justin Prince
"Hello, my name is Justin Prince. I am 30 years old. Since June of 2021, I have developed a vast array of extremely complex health complications such as severe neuropathy, tachycardia, widespread muscle and joint pain, tinnitus, autoimmunity, vascular issues, chronic fatigue, cognitive decline, tendonitis, tendonosis, degenerative disc disease, food allergies, and thats just to name a few.
A recent brain MRI stated that it is likely that I have developed small vessel disease. I have abnormal labwork that has shown lupus and rheumatoid arthritis has flipped back and forth between postive and negative several times, which my rheumatologist hasn't ruled out these diagnoses based upon my symptoms. I've seen specality doctors in nearly every medical field and they had significant challenges in identifying, treating and providing symptom relief, but we've found several options that help. I'm in constant pain and my quality of life has significantly diminished, but I try my best to remain optimistic because there's so much in my life that I still want to accomplish and know that I can achieve by continued treatments.
I used to be a recording musician and was working on recording an album, but now I can hardly play guitar. As a result, over the past couple years, I have tried various treatment methods to promote healing, as recommended by my medical team. In this journey, we have found several treatments that provide symptomatic relief, but unfortunately, many of these specialized treatments and therapies are not approved by my insurance and are completely out of pocket expenses. This poses an incredible challenge when I can no longer work a normal job and rely on my parents and the generosity of others to help me survive and get treatments to manage my symptoms. I desperately need help and I wish that I didnt have to ask for help, but unfortunately, I have no other option. My health is rapidly declining because we can't afford to continue the treatment protocols that I have been doing or to try the things that doctors have recommended for me to try.
I'm a son and a brother and have been fighting with all my power to endure these horrible health complications and not give up on my family and friends. It has become more unbearable with the range of complex symptoms that I face everyday and the financial restrictions to provide symptom relief in pursuing my medical teams treatment protocol.
I am immensely grateful for all of you, for your time reading this and for any support that you can provide is appreciated more than you could ever understand. Please share this to help me raise medical funds.
Thank you all.Much love.
-Justin Prince."
