Prayer and His intervention have made the bad right knee my good knee, my left is the one that needs His healing, I am told bone on bone, yet there is nothing He can't do. I have seen and experienced His miracle healing, and others here as well, how do I appropriate it for this? I know each time I have interaction with a medical staff, Holy Spirit always manifests and I then share His truth to the point I have imparted to a Dr. with success.
At a local blood bank the machine I was hooked up to would shut down every 2 or 3 seconds, they tried everything, finally phlebotomist reached for it saying, I guess all we can do is stop. As she reached I said "wait. let me pray", I got done we had already gone past the precious shut down point, they were both wide eyed and jaws dropped as I spoke what He gave, "it will work now", I then had a captive audience to share and witness to, still do when I go there, one staff who recognizes me will poke another and they will both look with eyes wide open and jaws dropped, like they have never seen Him do something in front of them. If we step out for Him as He desires, He will always be there.
Amen!
If you are donating blood, why not consider PRP. There are Integrative/Naturopathic physicians who inject your own concentrated blood components into injured areas. For many it speeds healing. PRP/Platelet Rich Therapy is one of a number of ways that have helped athletes and those with arthritis to recover quicker from injury.
I've never heard of any orthopedic Dr say anything but bone on bone. I've also heard non surgical MDs tell me that 100% bone on bone has never been seen by them, ie Dr Martin Galegher. He explained that it's actually damage that causes roughness of the surface. If there's any cartilage left it can regrow as well as the skinned knee from falling. The cartilage takes a lot longer. He has a website last I checked goes into some details.
When my knees are sore from hard use, I never went to an Ortho to have them removed for tens of thousands of dollars. No doubt every one would shake their head
and lament that
"The x-rays show you have bone on bone and the only option is knee replacement surgery. But since you don't want that, I will give you a steroid
anti-inflammatory and pain killers."
Every person I've talked to said that the Dr never told them that those chemicals cause connective tissue/cartilage degradation.
If I learned that the mechanic I took my car to get the oil changed put some water or cutting fluid in with the oil, so I would have to come back and trust his word to replace the engine, I would not be a happy camper. Ive looked at someones X-ray after their Dr said sorry, there's no cartilage left, just bone on bone.
When I asked for the X-ray and pointed out the clear delineation of cartilage, the surgeon ignored me, took the old lady by the hand, dropped to one knee as if to propose marriage. Then with his other hand he stroked hers and gave her his spiel with loving eyes that she only ever seen in a melodramatic soap opera.
Guess what?
Rather than so much as trying a joint supplement for a period of time, she decided to disregard my warning about the risks of surgery. After all those supplements won't touch an old lady's heart like a handsome young surgeon can.
She almost died while in surgery.
Then she nearly died of dehydration in recovery. Then she nearly died of asphyxiation from the drug effects at the nursing home while staff looked on. She told them she can't breath, help me and the just stood their and watched for minutes before calling for help.
Sorry this is turning into a book, but I care. The thing surgeons care about is making
money and as much as they can get their greedy hands on.
and am reminded of this good thread. I hope you are feeling better.
