Everyone here is aware of all the struggles I have been going thru with my Health with the chronic wound, and having Fibromyalga, etc. There are days when I have the really good days, and then there are still the bad, but overall I think I am really beginning to see an upward trend.
There are a lot of changes going on in my life and Health at this moment, and personally these are for the Best. My chronic wound is now down to about surface again, and the skin around it is looking so much better. I have been doing the hyperbaric oxygen treatments now just about 7 weeks now. If they can only do 60 treatments I will be done around the end of the yr. But what it has done, I am glad I finally got them to try it, and really wish they would have considered it sooner.
Also my a1c has dropped almost a full point since July which is excellent. It is still above a 7, but considering it had been over 8 in July, I am quite pleased. I am even having to really cut back on the amount of insulin I take or I risk always being low now. So my blood sugars could be coming down even more.
The fibromyalga pain has its days, but most of the time a lot better. So I know what God is doing is a miracle, and looking back it has been truly worth it. I do appreciate everyone's thoughts and Prayers and let's continue to believe for my Christmas miracle.

I can sense how much more upbeat you are through your writing. I'm so glad to hear that things are beginning to look upward for you health wise, especially with your chronic wound. Will keep praying for you, and others who suffer needlessly with chronic disorders.

Thank you my friend, and things are getting better still. Needing to do another update here, and might consider doing one before I head on off to sleep. Have a Super busy but fun weekend ahead of me, and hopefully profitable one as well.

Well, besides working for someone else, I also have my own business and sell Beef, Buffalo, Chicken and Turkey Jerky and also have a Web Site, plus I also sell hand crocheted items, etc. and do Christmas bazaars, etc. This last weekend was not a Good weekend for me at all. But since I can also sell items at home, at work, etc. I never give up hope.

I'm so glad that you've got some fun planned for this weekend-may I ask how it would be profitable?
Here's a laugh for you-my weekend will consist of trying to use the rug shampoo machine that we borrowed from my boyfriend's brother...and I have to move the furniture myself! Oy vey, that will probably hurt my back, but the rugs need to be shampooed badly!

Good for you. you are getting better I just hope that it continuous until it will totally go away and healed. You just need to trust, believe and surrender. but do not ever stop seeing the doc. You need to have your daily check up and visit to the doctor. Way to go you can do it.

Well, I have 2 weeks left of the hyperbaric oxygen treatment approved thru my insurance and then will have to see what happens from there. I will also be asking a lot of questions when I see the doctor at the wound clinic in the morning and then posting from there. Hoping for excellent things from here.

Well, there is still some setbacks I need to get thru, and wondering just what more it will take, but I continue to believe God is still in control and one day this will be over and everything will be healed.

[b] Hello my friend KrauseHome Ji,
Great knews for all of us here. My deat Tina Ji, I was ever sure about this, if you go through all my responses since almost two yrs now, I always believed Almighty, no one knows about one's own deeds, we believe all our deeds are accounted with credit and debit at HIS office, now you are shifting to credit. Think positive. The way you feel happy internally will send some better signals in yoiur blood system your sugar/a1c will all become normal . Have a faith.You wille OK.
May God bless You and have a great time

Actually since I am having a lot of problems with Lows, I am glad that I have an apt. to see my Diabetic doctor on January 10th. I have been having problems with significant lows again and think somehow I need to really adjust something. But knowing I am getting better because of all this is a positive sign for sure.

It definitely sounds like things are taking much more steps toward the better and that is something that really is a good thing and I have no reason to believe at all that you are not going to be experiencing a Christmas miracle with your health this year.
I've been keeping you in my hopes and prayers for the last year with the health struggles that you've been going through and I will continue to keep you in my thoughts and prayers.

Well, here it is after Christmas and my leg is not healed, and not sure what the next game plan is, and I would rather not talk about the FRUSTRATION right now. I am trying to think positive but getting tired of the let's wait and see.

Thank You my friend. As I am down to just over a week left of Hyperbaric oxygen treatment I will be asking more questions today if I can, but continued Prayers are appreciated.

YAY!! That is so good to hear . Things are definitely looking up for you, and that makes me happy. The hyperbaric oxygen treatment was definitely worth doing, and agree that it should have happened sooner, but at least it happened. You're well on your way to a Christmas miracle, for sure-- and that's wonderful.

Yes, things are continuing to get much better. I am still wanting things to be healed completely by Christmas, and if not, God is in control. Just wish the doctor I was seeing would be a little more optimistic as well, as when I ask if this is not healed, what next, and he never says a thing.

Glad to know your doing well. I guess later on in life we will encounter health problems. It's normal as we grow. But what is important is how we accept this things and what we do about it. May more miracle happen and may you have a great health ahead..

Yes, it can be true as a person gets older, there will be Health problems and issues in their life that are New, and it really is up to them what they decide to do about it. When you decide to be proactive and take charge, even if it takes a while to get everything back to where you would like it, it still is worth doing. And in the end when you're back to feeling better again it makes you happy you did.

The important thing is you're getting better now despite of those trial treatments you've done but there is a good outcome in it. Just be hopeful and the miracle will follow. Just have faith that it will be totally healed and it will happen. Keep brave! Fight!!! :)

Our Health is a great blessing, some people do really encounter health problems at certain points but just learn to fight and keep positive thoughts.

Yes, our Health is a great blessing, and many times people never realize how important it is until faced with certain trials with it. But I have learned taking care of oneself is important and the more you do to make things happen the better off you are.

That is for sure. Health is really quite important, and overall is first over a lot of other things in my life for sure, as without my Health I really would have nothing and not be able to do all the things I do from day to day as well. That is why I aim to try and get my Health back in the Best shape I can to help for other things in life as well.
