Okay, I promise, I'm not going to keep boring you with my health updates, but I am just so excited, I'm about to jump out of my skin! With my diagnosis, the specialist gave me a look into what my future holds. All she has to offer me is a steady dose of "drugs"...."drugs" with some very bad side effects. I much prefer a more natural way to deal with health problems, and I truly believe that God created our bodies to be able to heal themselves with the proper nutrition. (I'll try to stay off of my "soapbox.") =)
A couple of weeks ago, we contacted our favorite doctor...Dr. "C". He has a really long last name, so he is affectionately called this by most of his patients. He was able to see me last Tuesday. When I explained to him what had been going on and what my diagnosis was, he looked at me and with a slight grin said, "That's all? That's an easy fix!" He proceeded to tell me about many, many patients he had seen over the last 30 years who have the same or similar diagnoses. One lady had it for 27 years and had been taking the same "drugs" that were offered to me with no relief. Since she has been following his advice, she has not had any trouble. In fact, he said that this is the only condition that he will say without a doubt can be healed! He said he does not use the word "heal" flippantly or even very often, but in this case, he pretty much guarantees it!
Praise the Lord! I am so thrilled that God has provided another route for my treatment and a renewed hope that I will not have to live with this the rest of my life. He has never forsaken me and has lovingly and miraculously guided every step in this process. I love looking back and seeing His fingerprints on so many areas of my life, and I look forward to seeing how He will work through Dr. "C" to help me. He loves us so much and is so concerned about every detail. What an awesome God we serve!
