Hello Brothers and Sister in Christ!!!

Please pray for my brother David. He has been esperiencing a lot of pain in his legs for the past few weeks, and now he's experiencing pain in his upper left arm. It is also hard for him to sit up, get off the couch, get around, etc. I honestly feel as if I'm losing David.

I would like to see him healed if that is God's will.

Ruth

Ruth,

Prayers are going up for David.

Has he seen a doctor? Do you know what's causing his pain?

Sandy,

He'd go see a doctor if he could, but he's in so much pain, it's hard for him to get up from the couch.

David and I (and doctors) don't even know what's causing the pain. It would be nice to know though.

Thank you for your prayers.

Ruth

Hello Ruth,
I'm not a Dr., but I was a paramedic and nurse technician and it sounds to me as if he maybe experiencing blocked arteries or a number of other medical problems. I recommend that you call 911 and get him an ambulance; they will move and transport him to where he doesn't have to put forth much effort; plus they can run some tests on him; definately get a second opinion here. I would not wait at this point! I am praying Gods' will for him and Shalom to you both!

Blesisgs,
Susan

I will be praying for David. I would also do what Susan suggested.

Susan,

I would do what you suggest, but when my brother is in the hospital, his legs get weaker when he is given IVs.

Ruth

Ruth,

I am praying for you and your brother. I hope all goes well. If it gets too bad you need to call 911. I am a pre-med major at TTU and it sounds like what Susan says.

I will talk to you later.

Please keep us posted.

SIncerely,

Anne C. McGuire

Ruth,
How is he doing today? I'm sorry, I'm not understanding what you mean when you say that 'when an IV is given to him, that it negatively effects his legs' strength'... (does he have Phlebitis/diabetes/heartdisease?), since I don't know your bro's exact age and H&P (History and Physical) then it would be unsafe for me to assume what is going on w/ him. But, I can't imagine an IV of normal saline(sterile water) hindering his legs. If you won't take him to get a second opinion then I suggest that you call one a Pharmacist as well as one of your local Natural/Alternative Health Markets and discuss with one of the managers exactly what is happening and see if they can help. I will be praying thatTHE GREAT PHYSICIAN will heal your brother if that is HIS will. (You are a caring sister; he's blessed to have you...)

This is an update on my brother David.

I took him to the hospital yesterday (12/15/06). They took x-rays (I didn't like what I saw) and gave him a CT scan. I went to see him this afternoon for a little bit. Shortly before I left, he was taken to get an MRI.

On the x-rays taken yesterday, I saw a little cluster of holes in the right pelvic bone and a line of great big holes going down the middle of the left pelvic bone.

So I will wait to hear what the MRI shows.

Thank you everyone for your many prayers. Your prayers are much appreciated.

No news yet as to the cause of David's pain. I'll be seeing him tomorrow (12/21/06), so I will let everyone know if there's any good news.

Well I have some news for everyone!!

I got to David's hospital room just in time to briefly talk with the nurse. She said that there is a build up of fluid on David's left hip and that they will try to remove some of the fluid. In order for me to know more, I'd have to talk to the doctor.

Other than that, he's doing ok. He's also eating somewhat.

Ruth

Sincerely,
