Post subject:  Health Issues...

As some of you may have noticed, I have been somewhat absent from the forums. This is due to my health having worsened considerably - as in, extremely so.

The problem appears to be a pretty simple one; a sinus infection or something. If I don't get much better very soon, I'll have to go to the doctor, which wouldn't be fun (being dizzy+going somewhere=bad); nonetheless, it would probably fix the problem. At least, fix what's making me so incredibly worse.

Until my health improves, then, I won't be around much. So, hopefully I'll be better in a week or less (probably will have to get antibiotics or something). Prayers appreciated - thanks to all those who have and will be.

See y'all around.
God bless,
Joel ><>.

Update: Went to the doctor today, and he prescribed me some antibiotics. As we suspected, I have major sinus congestion. I should be much better in a week or less, then. :)

Thanks for the prayers.

The same...Somewhat worse, actually. :P Antibiotics didn't help, which isn't surprising, as I learned that most sinus infections are caused by viruses, and not by bacteria (and, of course, antibiotics can't help with that). So, why the doctor didn't even mention that, I don't know.

It appears all the antibiotics did was give me false hope and make me more discouraged. Not the fault of the medicine...just a bad prescription.

So, it will probably be at least a week or two before I'll be back. Hopefully sooner. If I'm not significantly better/well soon (and that would take a miracle), I'll have to go back to the doctor, which would be awful because of how dizzy I am, and because they probably can't help me, anyway. If it's viral (and I don't doubt that it is), they "might" can soothe the symptoms, but they can't make it go away any faster.

It has been holding on for a long time. Must be a very bad virus.

Thank you for asking - I was just coming back here to update the topic...
God bless,

Post subject:  Re: Health Issues...

Thank you. :)

Yesterday was extremely bad. It was to the point last night that I thought I was losing my mind, and that the emergency room was it. That, or nothing.

However, miraculously, a second later and it would have been too late, it looks like God provided something that works. If I sit on the couch and watch TV, my head reclined back, that allows the sinuses to drain.

It's provided some relief, but not very much yet, unfortunately. Please pray that it continues to work, works better, and clears this awful thing up very soon. These have been probably the worst few weeks of my entire life (and that is saying more than you know), and I need major relief soon. I am exhausted physically, spiritually, emotionally, and mentally. I need healing. Badly.

Thank you so, so much.
God bless,
Joel ><>.

Joel Garner, don't ever doubt that God will heal you. He will - I know it. We are asking, seeking, knocking - even pounding on the door of Heaven, begging for you and Jonathan to be healed. Don't give up, Joel! Holy Worlds would be awfully dull without you.

Post subject:  Re: Health Issues...

I am praying, Joel.

I memorized these verses a few weeks ago, but didn't pay much attention to the meaning. Then when I was feeling discouraged just a few days ago, I stumbled across them again.
1st Peter 3:9 wrote:
Praise be to the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ! In His great mercy he has given us new birth into a living hope through the resurrection of Jesus Christ, and into an inheritance that can never perish, spoil or fade, kept in heaven for you. Though now for a little while you may have had to suffer grief in all kinds of trials. These have come so that your faith, of greater worth than gold -which perishes even though refined but fire- may be proved genuine and may result in praise, glory, and honour when Jesus Christ is revealed. Though you do not see Him, you love Him, and even though you do not see Him now, you believe in Him and are filled with an inexpressible and glorious joy. For you are receiving the goal of your faith, the salvation of your souls.

This is no more then a trial, Joel, and it will pass. It has come so your faith will grow that much stronger. Your faith is of greater worth then gold, and it's going to get even better. God will be praised through it all. That I am 100% sure of.

Post subject:  Re: Health Issues...

Well, I'd been seeing a little improvement the last few days, but that all went down the drain. :P I caught a cold that's been going around in our household for weeks (possibly why the sinus infection's been prolonged? Fighting that? I don't know), and I now have a sore throat and low fever on top of the sinus infection and severe dizziness.

In other words: I feel some of the worst I've ever felt in my life. And that is saying a lot.

Please pray. I need healing, relief, desperately, and it's simply not coming for anything.
God bless,

Yeah, it's awful. My body's hated me since about December of 2009 (or winter of 2009). :P And I'm sick of it. Unfortunately, rather than getting better, all it's done is continually get worse...

This cold and sinus infection has smacked me down really hard, too, to top it all off. I was already miserable; this just made me even more so. :/ I'm tired, but relief just isn't coming.

Unfortunately, the cold isn't just a cold, it's a pesky one; and, it's not just me, as I mentioned before.

Ugh. I wish I could go sleep for a few weeks and that all of this horrid pain I've endured for three years (almost to the day; my life exploded on April 5th-7th of 2009) now would just go away...But things don't work like that.

Oh, God, please help me.
