Through the prayers of St John Maximovich, St Nektarios and St Luke the Surgeon, Lord have mercy!

Lord have mercy.

I will pray for you Michael.

On a totally unrelated note, but it's going to make me sound totally dumb...

You have a wife? When did you get married? To whom? did you meet her here? LOL... duh.

Well I am SO happy you don't have her to comfort you in this time. What a blessing. Praise God!

I met her two years ago, and we were married last fall. She has been a major comfort with all of the wierd stuff going on with my neck and the carpal tunnel surgeries last year.

 

[Michael G]

Ok, not to derail my own thread. It really means alot to me that you are all willing to offer prayers for me and my health.

 

[cassc]

I'll get us back on track!
Prayers for your health and speedy recovery!!

 

[English Augustine]

Whatever happens, with God on your side, you'll be fine.

You have a physical illness but are spiritually healthy. Praise be to God that it isn't the other way around.

Lord have mercy!

 

[Michael G]

Thank you everyone!

Oh Michael, I will definitely remember you in my prayers. I really hope that everything turns out okay.

The doctor gave me PT and I am hoping it works because the test he wants to do sounds extremely painful!

Have you gone to the Cleveland Clinic yet?

 

[ShannonMcCatholic]

I am so late to this thread, but since prayer is outside of time...I will offer my prayers, as well....Hoping PT is effective and no surgery is needed!

I concur!

 

[Michael G]

No I haven't. I am in Pittsburgh now, so that would be quite a drive. My GI doc when I lived in Cleveland was out of the Cleveland Clinic and he was really good!

Thank you. The tests he wants to do if the PT doesn't work are a nerve conduction study (human pin cushion test) and a myleogram. The myleogram includes taking fluid from the spinal column and adding a dye to it, and that sounds like my idea of torture.

Oh my... definitely will continue to pray. At least they are running all the tests they can think of at this point, in order to discern the source. Painful or not, hopefully it will get to the root of the matter.

I remembered you were in PGH, but I figured CLE was closer than NYC Hospital for Special Surgery.

This may sound like a dumb question, but do you have an icon of St. Seraphim of Sarov?

I don't have an icon of St. Seraphim. Should I write one?
