Update on Quadricep/knee Injury
onelovedread:
For the last 2 years I've struggled with back problems which I believe have been diagnosed as herniated disks. My left side leg is pretty weak and I have difficulty climbing stairs.
After consulting with 3 doctors and 2 chiropractors, my condition is no better and I am using a cane and limping around.
Surgery would definitely not be an option for me.
I've almost totally decided in my mind to start a course of acupuncture treatments.
My sister has had success with it for a similar ailment.
Perhaps this is an option some of my disabled friends may want to explore.
At any rate, I volunteer to be the test case and will keep you guys updated on my progress:)

I had the same back problems for 20 years, down the leg/lower back. I tried everything including acupuncture. Acupuncture worked some but the result was only temporary. Thank God I did not opt for surgery. My problem was solved when I moved my wallet out of my hip pocket, that and God deciding to cure me of that problem. 2 months later my back felt as good as when I was a 20 year old and nearly 4 years later still going strong.

Hey Craig,
It definitely helps having your wallet in the front pocket & not the back one, I stopped putting my wallet in the back pocket about two years ago. Somebody had suggested that it was bad for your back, especially when doing allot of driving, I noticed a big difference too when I stopped having it in the back pocket, haven't had a problem since. I can be thankful to God my back seems to be doing well at this time, ;D.
Samson.

You are also posting on the correct venue--something I mess up with sometimes. I think the criticism of the FORUM and moderators was harsh. We. B-T'ers are a close family and we get ostracized by the "world and 'christian' friends" often enough without undo criticism of members or moderators!
God be with you, Samson and all our "family" in need whether it be medical or personal demons/challenges. And God BLESS the VOLUNTEER MODERATORS who keep us all on track, as well as spiritually guided with their research and answering questions from "new-bies" and us old
contributors who still entertain Bible questions. I will ever be grateful for Kat, Dennis and all others, who answered numerous questions for me on the way to the TRUTH. (I will ALWAYS treasure a few personal answers from RAY, himself!)

Thanks Duane, Glad your back on board, looks like I get to experience a little bit of your world, the ambulating difficulties, I mean. I would be lying if I told you I wasn't scared about this unknown territory, always enjoyed the fact that My legs were my strong suit and not too long ago, here I get at least a taste of a Handicapped Person's World. My Dr. said there are a few old injuries in that Knee area that healed in an unusual, but not original way and He doesn't believe it would benefit Me to tamper with them, IE- The Anterior Cruciate Ligament & The Medial Meniscus, but the repair of My Quadriceps Tendon is of the utmost importance, if I don't want to end up permanently Disabled. Trying to keep my Mind occupied, so I don't get too nervous about all this and drive myself more "Nuts" than I already am.
Any suggestions or insights are welcome, your much experienced in this area, what have I got to lose.
Kind Regards, Samson.

Thankyou Honeylamb, much appreciated, can use all the prayers people are willing to give, God declares the End and The Beginning of Every Matter, so will have to wait see what He has in store for Me.
Kind Regards, Samson.
