I have an appointment to see my doc on the 27th for my hands and arms. Things are weak and painful, lots of numbness, tingling, like they are waking up from being asleep but yet so numb I don’t know what to do to make them feel better. It took me over 20 minutes to get up my ramp after checking the mail today...I thought I wasn’t going to make it. I can’t close my right hand to grip anything and that makes it really difficult to propel my chair.

My back isn’t better...they don’t have the right hip controlled, the coverage for my back is too low so I can’t seem to get comfortable. I get better coverage when I lean back, but just sitting up I don’t feel anything. I have an appointment with the company for more programming Thursday. I’m still taking dilaudid and it’s not doing much to control the pain. The doctor says my nerve damage is really bad and that causes them problems for programming, they can’t find the location for the nerves. I didn’t know the nerves change places... If they can’t get me the relief, soon...I’m going to have the unit removed. This isn’t good when I need relief in certain areas and they won’t work with me as long as needed. The one who did the work with me seemed to be in a hurry...he didn’t want to take the time to make sure the nerves that needed it were covered.

Prayers up as always. God does not test you past your strength but He sure seems to cut it close sometimes.

So sorry to hear. I have nerve damage in my hands and arms and suffer from the same symptoms you describe. However I am better some days so I have relief. I hope you will soon get some relief also.

I’m serious. It helps many others in your plight and may give you a couple of hours of your life back.

I agree with Corporate Stepsister. You deserve better care, and to have the medical team take the time/caring to get you the very best treatment they can provide, regardless of time consumed Let’s pray your next adjustment is successful.

I'm quite sorry you are having to go through all this. Try not to give up faith that the good Lord shall yet provide the way for you in this horrible situation.
I'm partly aware of some of the things you are going through having a cousin who has become a total invalid with advance stage of MS, who has been in a wheel chair for a number of years. With all kinds of continued new bad effects within her body. I do hope the good Lord's Hand yet can shine down upon you to a degree you shall see real relief from pain and all the associated problems you are facing.

Except for my dentist, I’m finding I have no confidence with those in the medical community lately. Good luck to you.

Trussell,

God’s Word says there is life or death in the tongue. He also says we can speak to things in our live’s and they shall be removed and by Jesus’ stripes we were healed.

Father God,

In the name of Jesus we speak to the nerves in Trussell’s body and command them to come alive. Nerves, come alive! Hear the Word of the Lord!

We ask Holy Spirit, “Breath new life into Trussell’s nerves and body (and all the other Freepers who are suffering with similiar maladies) that she may have wholeness and fullness of life.”

Jesus, You bore our illness and our afflictions on the cross. By Your stripes we were made whole. We thank God that You won the victory!

Father God, we ask for believers to surround Trussell with love and that she will have comfort and relief from all pain. We give all that concerns her to You because You are rest, You are peace.

Give the doctors and nurses competance and compassion as they treat Trussell.

We believe in miracles. You make a way where there is no way. Nothing is impossible for You!

We give God the glory for the great things He has done though His Son Jesus. In Jesus name we pray. Amen.
