The Lord leads, Satan attacks, it's a choice, we should let the Lord lead, bro 
Not sure what someone means by 'failed my drug test,' but, just to say, keep staying on c.c. for spare time and let the Lord free your mind in Him as you do things more and more spiritually sound and letting His Spirit lead you

My son had his allergy testing yesterday. He had to have 60 needles stuck under his skin for the the test. He has very bad asthma and very bad allergies, He is on 7 different medications just to control (and i say that loosely because it is rather out of control) his asthma and allergies. The doctors could not figure out what was causing his severe reactions (asthma attacks, eyes swelling shut, hives etc.. etc..) So i was referred to this top asthma and allergist to figure it out. My appointment was yesterday
I went in there expecting to find out he was allergic to maybe 4 or 5 things, but i was totally unprepared for this.
He was tested for the full environmental panel. It includes any and every possible thing indoors and outdoors someone could react to. The full panel is 60. Out of 60 he is highly allergic to 58.
So he is highly allergic to every tree, but the pine tree. Every mold, All grass, mice, roaches, cats, dogs, dust, dust mites ... the list goes on and on and on. The doctor said ma'am i have never seen anything like this in a child, He is off the charts allergic to everything. He then whipped out his cell phone and started taking pictures of his arms where the testing was done so he could show the other doctors.
I keep wondering how this could have happened.... Even though it's depressing to know, it may just keep him from being hospitalized again.
He starts getting allergy shots next week. 3 a week for the next 6 months, then 2 a month. The allergist says he will more than likely have to get these the rest of his life, because as he has gotten older his reactions are getting worse.
Then to top it all off. He's hypoglycemic......
Although through all this i can't help but praise God because at least my little man doesn't have cancer or some other disease that could or will kill him.
No matter your situation, it could always be worse.

I think you're practically perfection. I don't know you and I am writing from phone but I believe God bestows some of His Divine "knowledge" on a select some. Only the "some" can handle it and not others. Knowing what you know and feeling what you feel, can you even imagine how God agonizes over us so?
I am not chosen. Sometimes I feel a totality of nothing. At my own father's funeral when there was this one sobbing and that one remembering, I sat like a stone and remembered nothing and didn't cry and felt guilty instead.
The desires, disapppointments, love, awkwardness, and strong feelings you gave no name are divine. A Godly touch! You think no one hears when everyonr hears.
I'm sure this sounds stupid - I'm not at PC but was led to say this thing.

It's OK, we tend to ignore the evidence of your unedumicatedness
Try talking to a Homeopathic Dr. From what I understand unpasteurized local produced honey works wonders for pollen allergies. It's gotta be made local so that it comes from the pollen of local plants and unpasteurized because the heat in the pasteurization process destroys alot of the good stuff in it. My understanding is that it acts like a vaccination for pollen allergies.

Nod, I am so very sorry to hear about your little boy. What a horrible ordeal for both of you to have to go through. I'll be sure to keep you in my prayers for knowledgeable doctors who know exactly what to do.
Kenthomas--I am very sorry to hear about your father. Sometimes life overwhelms us to the point where we really do feel nothing... at a time when other people expect us to feel everything. You are on my prayer list today, that God will comfort you no matter what you're going through.
Kayem--I once heard a sermon in which the pastor said, "Jesus was always asking questions and answering questions." God places a lot of value on our questions. I realize He doesn't want us to worry, but He also tells us to seek wisdom and understanding. I have a tendency to ask a lot of questions, too, as if that wasn't obvious!! I don't think God ever wants us t stop asking ("Ask, Seek, Knock"), don't give up being who you are. *hugs*

I don't think it's knowledge I find myself battling, because honestly I'm not that knowledgeable, (especially at math or physics lol) but I feel the little knowledge or awareness I posses. I guess you could say I think with my heart, or rather I rationalize with my heart the things I know in my brain. Trying to make sense in the rollercoaster of life. But for the most part, I've learned to appreciate the emotions God gave me. Similar to what you were saying, the idea of God having emotions like us reminds me that they are there to drive us for his good will.
And hey, it doesn't sound stupid at all. Not feeling anything many times means we're feeling too much...at least from my own experience. Sorry to hear about your father. Thanks for your kind words Ken!

Along with Oncefallen's suggestion, did you also test him for food allergies? Sometimes eliminating top allergens from a kid's diet (gluten, dairy, soy or eggs), when those things are gone from their bodies, other allergies aren't as inflamed as easy like environmental and stuff. It's because of the fact that your immune system can be overloaded with it fighting off so many allergies, and it can be physically tiring. So when you start taking the load off by having a more natural diet and eliminating some of the top allergens from his diet, your immune system can start fighting off the other stuff.
