along the front range first cold rain and perhaps a brief transition to snow. won't be a major snow, but considering how dry it's been, 34 days in a row with dry weather, we'll take anything we can get. we'll break it down hour by hour straight ahead. ashton, thanks a lot. right now resources from colorado are on their way to fight wildfires in the south. more than 70 fires are burning across they've burned more than 80,000 acres. it's this kind of fire these states are really not used to dealing with. >> we have california wildfires in north carolina. >> the way this fire is, it is totally different. this is the worst thing i've ever been involved in. >> more than 20 of the fires are being investigated for suspected arson. 40% of the south is in drought conditions and there is no rain in the forecast there. colorado has sent a couple of aircraft as well as

big for this team, not okay, we need him to play big. >> bye week. game against the raiders has been moved, that's against the chiefs, excuse me, moved to sunday night. they play the chiefs at home sunday night, the sunday after thanksgiving. >> did you see him crossing his arms there? >> when they say, addressing that, you know you're in trouble. >> clearly there. you've been busy? >> will get real busy around the end of the week. the end of this week storm system moves in. will start to impact the state tomorrow night. now crystal clear blue skies throughout much of colorado. 67 in genesee in the foothills. and those mountain peaks should have more snow this time of

including the i-70 corridor. summit and eagle counties we'll see snow. in the mountains definitely accumulation. for denver and the front range it's going to start as cold rain and transition into snow. remember today will be almost 80. tomorrow upper 70s. the ground is relatively warm. a lot warmer than it normally it this time of year. while a couple of inches may fall, i'm not convinced we'll see actual accumulation. it's possible, especially on rooftops and vehi, because the ground is more warm. like an event maybe we'd have in october rather than november. well into the 70s up and down the front range. 78 in denver. tomorrow 76. the record tomorrow is 77. today's record is 78. thursday there it is, starts as cold rain, transitions into snow. that 49 high temperature you see on thursday, that will be around lunchtime. we'll be a lot lower than that in the afternoon.

it's all over. it's all over. thursday, friday, much this is haystack tv, powered by haystackhelp.com. finding reliable services can be like finding a needle in a haystack. with haystackhelp.com finding the needle just got a lot easier. now here is the host of haystack tv, chris kane. you've perhaps heard of peripheral neuropathy. it's a condition where there's damage to the nerves in your feet and legs, or your hands and arms. it can be a devastating condition that causes pain, it could slowly progress over many years, and it can become severe and debilitating. this condition affects an estimated 20-million americans. dr. dean anderson is a chiropractor at front range medical center, which is a an integrated health clinic, and he's here to discuss an advancement in treatment that's providing great results and offering hope for many of those suffering from neuropathy. hey, thanks for being here. thanks for having me. so tell us exactly what is peripheral neuropathy.

and patients that come to see you, what are they dealing with? most patients we see have been dealing with this for a long period of time. so we see a lot of patients who are frustrated, they sometimes feel lost because they've been told nothing else can be done, and then they're just having to deal with the side effects of decreased quality of life. you know, oftentimes it they can't sleep at night. they suffer with a lot of burning pain,. they have numbness or they have issues with balance, and it's very frustrating. what causes it? well the majority of cases we see are caused by blood sugar but there can be a number of things, whether it's toxicities, side effects of medications, and some cases are idiopathic, we don't know the cause. all right, well treatments then, what are the traditional treatments that are out there? well most patients we see that have been dealing with this, they're on medications like gabapentin, larotin, lyrica, and all of which are good. they can manage the symptom of pain, but it does nothing for the nerve. so as the medication wears off the pain is back, and it's just this ongoing process. why do people continue to suffer even though they are taking the medication.

symptom of pain but it does nothing for the nerve, so as that medication wears off, the pain is right back. well talk about what you do in your office, because you're having great results and, really, people that have been told that nothing can be done for your pain, you're helping them. yeah, the technology that we use is what we call electronic signaling treatment. it's a form of current that we use at very high frequencies depending on the type of nerve damage patients have. nerves are electrical. we want to get these nerves to fire better. now with this technology, we also use what's called a vasopneumatic device which helps increase blood flow or circulation to the nerves, so by stimulating the nerves, getting blood to these nerves, we allow these nerves to rebound. all right, well talk about the results that you're getting then. well, number one is we want to see subjective improvement, patients feel better. we want to see that they can sleep at night. they're not fall risks, they can have better balance, and they can just do more. we also want to see an improvement in nerve function, so we monitor that very carefully by assessing patients as we go through, because the goal is to improve function.

be helped. but talk about what else you do in your office. well as patients come in, we go through a screening process or qualification process to make sure we understand not only what's driving their condition but also what type of nerve damage they have. there's different types of neuropathy, and we specifically want to know, because that affects how we treat the individual. all right, we actually talked to a few of your patients, and let's take a listen and see what they had to say. great. when i first started coming to dr. anderson, i had no feeling in my feet. couldn't feel the brake pedal anymore. what has happened since is absolutely fantastic. i no longer fear losing my balance as i walk, i have feeling in my feet and lower legs again, and driving a car makes me much safer on the roads than i used to be. he told me he though he could help me and found out that it's

ugh the treatments, and right away i could tell a difference, and now i can walk by myself. i was falling down a lot. and if anybody has any question about it, you need to try it. at least come and see how it works for you. anyone that is suffering from pain, they need to give you a call, you can help them. i'm going to tell them how to get ahold of you. thanks for being here. great. many patients are told elsewhere that nothing can be done for the pain from neuropathy and that they just have to live it with. if you've heard this same thing from your doctor, dr. anderson is offering a free screening that includes looking at your personal health history, a confidential questionnaire, and a patient-specific neuropathy exam to determine if you are, indeed, a candidate for treatment. this is $120 value in his office. appointments are limited so call (720) 851-9694 or visit frmedicalcenter.com.
