Table of my health symptoms for your targeted prayers



SUMMARY
Jesus is my Lord. And Jesus is my Healer. As my Healer Jesus has used medicine, therapies, surgeries, and answered prayers over the decades.  

I have told people that the symptoms for the last 10 weeks have varied. That is a vague sentence. The attached spreadsheet will provide an overview of what I mean.

I began to record how the symptoms varied weeks ago. It was for my benefit and to share with my doctor. Also I want to share it with you so that you can understand how odd this seems.

Each of these symptoms is relatively minor. I am not in major pain. But they have persisted and keep changing.

If my health symptoms keep getting more complicated and worse that could not be good.

It is not so bad as to call 9-1-1 or go to the Emergency Room.

I have an appointment at noon on Tuesday February 13 in 3 days at the office of a holistic health care provider. I am still seeking to raise the 400 dollars for that visit and to arrange for the 50 miles transportation.

I request your best prayers.

I was considering setting up a Go Fund Me crowdfunding campaign. But today I learned that it takes as much as 5 days after the fund are raised to get to the bank account. I might go down that path after the first visit to the doctor. Then I will know the plan for the next steps.

What I can offer is this Paypal link http://www.freewebs.com/jsohub/give.htm God has used that avenue during the years to connect me with supporters dozens of times.

It is likely that I might need to call a few people to ask them in person. Pray for God to guide and provide.


REVIEW
Since I was a child I was rarely sick. I would go 5 to 7 years between visits to the doctor.

Then when I lived in the homeless shelter for 3 years I was in a dorm with more than 100 men. I had some minor skin rashes and minor respiration challenges.

Normally I got the flu for a few days every 3 years.

When I moved to the small town of Ennis I was healthy until December 2017. That is when I started to have minor pains in my right chest. I thought it was a pulled muscle. But it came and went. Plus it moved around.

I had flu like symptoms like many others. But mine lasted longer. It came and went. The symptoms changed during December.

The chest pains caused me concerns because my father had heart bypass surgery in his 50s. He has had 2 stents and is currently taking heart medicine at 94 years old. So I must take any sign of heart trouble seriously.

I am 64 years old. I took early retirement at 62. Medicare starts when I turn 65 this April. I do not have any health insurance. I was not making enough income to qualify for Obamacare.

As you will see in the attached table there are various symptoms that involve different parts of my body. Some things are lingering and some new issues are arising.

I went to the local sliding scale clinic in early January. The doctor just said that there was a 99 percent chance my chest pains were not heart related. He was in a hurry to get to the next patient he had nothing to say about my other symptoms. That is when I sought the more holistic health care.

Dr. Kathi has a team in her office and they address the body from many directions.

I have been unable to sleep on my right side for many years. When I do my right arm falls asleep. Also as the table shows there are times that my right shoulder blade hurts when my right chest hurts. So hopefully chiropractic adjustments cause the chest pains to end.

Dr. Kathi’s team offers several detox protocols. Getting the bad stuff out of my body will allow the immune system to function much better. Hopefully the stomach aches, heartburn and frequent farts will end. Hopefully lose of appetite will end.

If she thinks it could be heart related then I want to go to a specialist that she recommends. That person will be more holistic than others.

Shalom

John
