Hey guys...

I'm new to this forum, as I thought it would be awesome to join an online Christian forum, and I happened to come across this one, which is awesome :)

So for over 2 years now I've been struggling with physical problems. I've tried everything, from seeing doctors to making appointments, forking out so much money (which I don't have) as I'm only 20 years old and I live with my mother (single parent).

Through playing sport, I've ended up with 2 damaged shoulders, rotator cuff weakness and damage, my right shoulder is fractured and both my groins / hip flexes are constantly sore and popping/clicking etc. I've been scheduled for an mri scan but I can't afford it at the moment. I've gone through huge ups and downs with my faith and prayer, and it's just so disheartening when your prayers don't get answered. I know God has a plan and he will answer my prayers in His own time, but sometimes it's just so difficult to believe. The hardest part is that I love exercise and sport SO MUCH and to have to stop is just so disappointing (to say the least). I've asked people to pray for me, I've been praying and it just seems like nothing is happening. I'm only 20 years old and having to face ligament/bone problems already isn't such a great experience. It's extremely worrying.

I really wish I could run again and do the activities I used to do once upon a time. It sounds like I'm already so old, but the truth is, I'm still so young!

All I'm asking for is that if you have a prayer list, please include me in it...
I'm struggling so much right now and having to think about these problems everyday is mentally and emotionally draining...

Thank you for taking the time to read my story/request.

God Bless
- Michael

Welcome to CF! I'm so sorry you are going through such a difficult time! When I was in my 20's I developed a life threatening heart condition. I know how it feels to be young, but feel old. With God's help, you will get through this, and you can always count on God's help. I will keep you in my prayers. :prayer: God bless you.

Read the book: "Confessions of a medical hieratic" and seek out alternative medicine. Especially Chinese medicine. And start on a regiment of glucosmine sulfate and Vitamine c. Also be patient and don't do anything to overstrain yourself, other than light physical exercise. Your very young still so your body has TONS OF TIME TO HEAL. You'll be better in no time. But don't be impatient okay. Just rest and let time do it's job. Dear lord please heal this person and protect him from DR's that will make it worse. Amen.

Thank you so much everybody.
I'm feeling so depressed right now. This has just been going on for so long, it's just eating away at me. Apart from this, I have tons of family problems, and everything just feels broken. I can't remember the last time I smiled from being happy...

Thank you all...I appreciate it.

I'm praying that God will comfort you and help you and give you strength. I believe that difficult life circumstances bring out the strong person we are. Do you have medicaid? If not you ought to apply for it. Sounds like you might qualify.
