Mystery Illness Healed...onto the next thing Mood
Tuesday, August 19, 2008 | A General Update story

So I was having some side effects form the Accutane (acne medication) I've been on the last 5 months or so. Loss of appetite, sad, crying, nausea, joint pain, My scar from my recent surgery was not healing. Then I got this knee pain which spread up the muscles of my leg and made it so excruciating to walk that I had to be confined to the couch and rent a wheelchair for a week. There was no swelling or discolouration, the only thing 'medically tested'w rong with me was that my white cell count was high- fighting inflamation. They couldn't necessarily contribute this to a side effect of the med even though it warns of joint pain. I even saw a specialist. I got an email out to my church group to pray and that day the pain started to ease. God is good. It took about 4 days until I felt totally normal again. The doctors can't explain why I healed- but I know it was just by the grace of God. Now I'm off to the hospital for my RAI treatment tomorrow. Praying for absolutely no side effects from that!
