HEALTH and WELLNESS

Tags: natural healing, health, medication

For more than twenty years I suffered pain in different areas of my body and as the years went by the pain became more and excruciating. I visited several doctors and the answer was always the same-more medication.

The anti –inflammatory or pain killers that were prescribed caused adverse reaction often in the form of stomach discomfort, palpitations and swelling.

It puzzled me that the doctors continued to prescribe medications, without having me tested to find out what was causing the pain and discomfort. One day I decided that it is not normal to have pain and I needed to get to the root of this problem. I wanted answers.

On my next visit to the doctor, I ask him if there was a test available that could help to determine what was causing the indescribable pain and fatigue. The doctor sent me to a lab for blood work and the result indicated some kind of abnormality, so he referred me to a rheumatologist.

After the rheumatologist reviewed my medical history and interviewed me, he informed me that I had a condition called Fibromyalgia Syndrome, which I had never heard of before.

“What is that?” I asked. Without hesitation, he explained that it is a condition causing sleep deprivation, chronic headaches, irritable bowel syndrome, tingling and numbing sensations, chronic muscular skeletal pain and chronic fatigue mainly affecting women.

The symptoms are generalized stiffness or aches in at least three areas of the body, for at least three months and patients with this condition have six or more tender points. These symptoms may be related to stress, changes in the weather or trauma.

Suddenly I felt my dreams tumbling down. I knew I was in trouble because I fit the criteria, he was describing and I could feel the tears streaming down my face. I asked the doctor what is the cause of this terrible condition? “The cause is unknown and there is no cure”, he replied. This was a very scary time for me. He listed some assumptions for causes and my mind I was searching to find what could have possibly caused this to happen to me.

The thought of having a condition for which there is no cure and is degenerative plagued my mind, mainly because my son was only three years old. I have a husband and two older daughters whom I would like to continue enjoying life with among all the other things that I enjoyed doing.

But at that moment the possibility of the great life I had always dreamed of, seemed bleak; as I started to think about all the things I would not be able to do if this condition should worsen. After the priscription medications failed I ased the doctor if he could recommend a natural healingt treatment and he told me there was none for fibromyalgia. I wanted to find natural healing, so I started to do some home-work.

The pain and fatigue were so severe at times, that I was unable to do many of the activities of daily living, such as, cooking, cleaning my house, combing my hair and even climbing in my SUV. If I spent more than an hour shopping at the Mall I got extremely exhausted.

I started to ask God, “why me” and “why now” and he began to speak to me and reminded me of all the children and adults with whom I have worked and was still working with, who had so many disabilities that were far worse than what I was complaining about. I knew had had to to all I could to ensure that my health was not being compromised.

Fortunately I tried several natural remedies and supernatural healing and now I enjoy freedom in all areas of my life.
