Hey there Spirit Friends as I am wishing you good vibes for this new month of March! I for one am grateful February has passed but also grateful for life lessons always. Today, I am sharing my personal journey of these last several months. I am always here to educate all of you so we can grow together on this journey. You may have read how I’ve had some health issues and they are being addressed. Well, I had no idea just what was and is still in store for me. Late last October, I started to experience similar symptoms that I had the year before. Here came those heart palpitations once again. Based on last time, I chalked it up to spirit connecting with me and lived with it. I still believe it was spirit of course but just in a different way this time.
This would come and go but then I felt extremely fatigued where napping became a must. I rarely napped as a child and have started taking a few here and there in my adult years. This was a lot of times though so I began to wonder. Then, the holidays started approaching as my energy was even more depleted. Yes, I was distracted with being busy but literally felt like crap. What was this and why was it so intense? I finally had my husband take me to Urgent Care to be evaluated. My EKG was fine thank God. She basically told me it was stress but doesn’t everyone have a little extra that time of year? The palpitations did go away but then I got other symptoms too and not just the fatigue. My glands were swollen but with the weather change, that’s common for me. I had my thyroid checked and it was a little high but nothing to worry about. I also had pain in my right rib cage area that seemed to intensify. That was a mystery. What would that mean? The Holidays left me so distracted but I kept on going just like normal only with bouts of crying and fear.
After that time of year settled down a bit, I did get a massage that I actually had been meaning to do for a very long time. It was many years since I received one and a friend had gone so finally booked mine. My masseuse was awesome and spiritual with similar interests like mine! She was the perfect person to work on me. I did feel better but then a few days later, the pains came back. We had my daughter’s Confirmation coming up and I just asked God to get me thru that and then I’ll get more doctor help. That’s exactly what I did. At first I thought these symptoms were part of my ascension process and in actuality, they are but physical issues need to be addressed. We did make yet another trip in over a year to the ER. I didn’t want to AT ALL but really felt like I had no other choice. Prior to this I should add was an appointment I made with a GI doctor. My belly pain made it hard to even want to eat much food at all although I was able to keep everything down thankfully. This pain was on my right abdomen and hurt much throughout the day. The ER told me to keep that appointment but at least they ordered a CT scan. It ruled much out but the one area it doesn’t show is your colon and intestines.
After spending yet again another 3 hours there just like last year, I was sent home. Mostly my organs looked good but needed the GI to follow up. Based on my many symptoms, he recommended an endoscopy and colonoscopy. Wow. I had heard of a few people who have had this done but that was the only real way he could thoroughly examine down there to see the problem. Ugh…. I was scared since I hadn’t been put under in over 20 years. The prep work drink to clear your colon— NOT FUN! You’re basically clearing your insides with starvation from food for over a day. That was hard for me, really hard. Tested my resilience for sure. The procedure went well as I tried so hard distracting myself from food. Turns out, I have an ulcer and diverticulosis. My Dad and brother have diverticulitis which is a little bit more severe as this can be hereditary. Some other family members have also had colonoscopies and my one sister had an ulcer a few years back as well. So, that takes us to the now. Hopefully, with this medication the ulcer will heal but not without my lovely share of side effects. That’s me of course. Luckily, all this is connected to the ulcer and with time and fingers crossed— will HEAL. I have back pain on and off, shoulder blades hurt sometimes, and because of stress got a knot in my neck ):
I have a roller ball heat massager that works well plus alternating heat with ice. I can get muscle relaxers but really need organics or all natural products. That’s why we went to our Vitamin Shoppe to get more probiotics and a few items to ease with digestion. I do also have an appointment with an Energy Healer soon so I still truly know my energy body needs to heal so my physical one can too. I AM doing better but will need a follow up ultrasound or endoscopy soon to check on this ulcer… At least my appetite and sleeping are better. I need lots of pillows and am drinking chamomile tea with ginger but it’s sloooowly coming along. Time and patience are not my thing but they are virtues I need to learn better for sure.
My diet also needed to change although I wasn’t filling my body with much junk anyway. I can have most things but really need to bulk up on greens more and lots of fruit with veggies. I do this but the cravings make it quite the challenge. I signed up for this so always lots to educate on and be better! My body was always giving me signals and I finally listened more. I so like to solve things on my own without doctors but sometimes, we do need them. Not always all the medicines since we do have alternatives but the help is urgently needed.
Take care of yourself spirit friends and get medical help when you feel like you need it. I WILL get thru this just like you need to believe you will too with whatever is going on in your life. I share my story to guide you to listen to those signals your body is communicating everyday. I probably waited a little long but so grateful to have to taken care of this before it get any worse. This month has been HARD but I know others have it a lot more difficult than me and this is just a minor setback.
My Physical Therapist is working on me and I will have the story of how I met him next week! Stay healthy and well and always take care of your health. Besides our life, it is the second and next best thing to be grateful for. Until then, stay true and stay tuned Spirit Friends!
