Default Hey Mark, how are you doing?

Decided to start a separate thread as I've not been very good at keeping up with the many posts due to being sidetracked dealing with my latest health issues

I hope that your pain is being resolved in some manner.

Default Thanx Fiona

Hurting a powerful lot. Typing much less just now. Right arm hurts too badly, the burning of lower legs awful, even though I am still numb. Em saw my foot bleeding other night and pulled out a glass fragment I never knew was there.

EMG Wednesday. consult with pain specialist Thursday. Maybe we will learn something.

Appreciate all of the prayers. Spirits still up, and I don't even drink,
Still praying,
Mark56

Hi Mark

I'm so sorry to hear you are suffering so much. How awful for you. I will be thinking about you on Wednesday and pray that the Dr's will come up with something.

Default You're in my prayers!

Praying that the EMG shows everything that's going on so that you can get resolution to this awful pain you're dealing with. Also praying your pain dr. on Thurs. will have special wisdom and insight from our good Lord on how to best help you.

Heart Thanks Fiona.....

.....for starting this thread

My heart is heavy that Mark is going through such a rough time. Especially while this is supposed to be a very joyous time for him and his precious family.....moving into their new home, a grandson on the way....the prospects in which God has led him.

Please know that I too am praying with the rest of our family here and that I stand on all the Scriptures which declares you a victor in the things that come against you. You are a child of GOD and He will renew you and you will soar to new heights like that of an eagle!

Amen!
We love you Mark,

I know only too well the horrible burning of feet, ankle and leg pain. The name you call him..."deceiver", is one I had never heard before you so appropriately called him. Many other names; but not "deceiver". Oh, he finds joy when we want to give up. There are all too many days he calls to us. He knows how to fill our head with a way out of all this pain. We will not....we cannot let him win.

God hold us close to You
Let our mind and hearts be
filled with Your love for us
You let Your only begotten Son
suffer to show us we are not alone
He is the Ressurection and the life
of the world to come
We will await for His calling...
Amen

(Gerry)

Default Prayers wonderful

Grateful for prayers. EMG whole body tomorrow. Consult on Thursday at 3 Mountain time. Answers hopefully then.

How does one explain pain when it should not be there. Had glass in foot, but could not feel it. both feet up to mid calf burn as if on fire. I know fire, because I have been burned. Right arm aches so bad, hard to type.

used pain meds friday night, but refuese now. won't give in. God withus.

humore--- ouch,
mark
