I will praise God for answers. Good answers or bad answers, I was convinced I just desperately wanted an answer. I saw a new doctor today, and he gave me the working diagnoses of fibromyalgia. I will get a full blood work up done tomorrow morning and go back to the doctor on Friday. If all of the blood tests come out okay the diagnoses will be fibromyalgia. Unfortunately, there is not a lot of treatment for fibromyalgia and the doctor basically said I will have to live the rest of my life with this pain. That was hard to swallow. Harder than I expected it to be considering I knew this diagnoses was a possibility. I can live everyday in physical pain - I have done that the last 6 years. The scary part is that this pain has gotten so bad recently that it has begun to effect my life. It sometimes takes me hours to get out of bed in the morning. I am extremely exhausted all the time which is a symptom of fibromyalgia, and the more fatigued I am the worse the pain is. I can't always pick up "my" kids which is the most heartbreaking. I know and pray that this will be used for His glory though. And I will rejoice through the pain and frustration because I serve a faithful and loving God. I appreciate all the prayers through this process so much! God is good!
Love,
Jenna

My heart goes out to you, Jenna. You are a strong, compassionate woman of God. I am sorry that you are going through this health trial. You can rest in knowing that God will use this for His glory. This could be what he uses to reveal Himself to you in an even deeper way. Rest in your dependence on Him and know that He is more than able to carry you through this!
