Lessons learned

Good Monday morning all, hoping you all had a wonderful weekend. Just wanted to enlighten the day a bit, by sharing our sermon from Sunday at church

Be 2gether Pt. 3 – Harmony and Happy https://subspla.sh/5hb6jdm, hopefully this week, I’ll get the first two sermons up, because next week is the last one is the series. It was a sub text from our last sermon series called BE, which I’ll try getting up here before they drop off our Church’s app.

Recouping slowly

Good Monday everybody, hope everybody had a great weekend. I did, I hung out with family enjoying a beautiful day out in the park and sun, went to church and hung with my immediate family, had lunch and then jumped on my game with the hubby. We play Star wars the old republic online for anyone who’s wondering. I’ve felt better today versus the past week, slowly but surely, getting back to my normal self and hopefully soon, able to drive myself around again. 😁😁

Anyhow, as I mentioned the other day, that I fight invisible illnesses, autoimmune diseases every day and they affect me differently than they do others. Since I started seeing my functional medicine specialist here in Michigan, I almost don’t wanna see any other Drs, conventional doctors. All they wanna do is feed you drugs or send you to the ER, to do something they don’t wanna do, for the ER, to refer you back to your primary Dr and wish you luck. That’s some of the fun I’ve dealt with this past week.

So, after each time I’ve seen or corresponded with my primary Dr or the ER, I’ve immediately jumped online and emailed my fms-functional medicine specialist, to get there opinion. I’d rather get theres than do something and eventually pay for it dearly. Sadly, like in most other parts of the world, insurance doesn’t cover you to see holistic doctors, functional medicine specialists, naturopathic doctors. They want you to be dependent on them so they can be dependent on the pharmaceutical companies. Big drama, anyhow,I consult them and based on blood work, they think I’m dealing with a sugar issue, which if not majorly dealt with now, could develop into diabetes later on. So, I’m taking a supplement called fenugreek, it’s a supplement that helps lower blood sugar. I haven’t been on it long enough yet to determine if it’s helping yet, but I’ll let y’all know when I do.

As far as my funky feeling issues lately, I’m almost wondering if some of them aren’t an allergic reaction to seasonings that have stuff in them I can’t eat? That will eventually be a question for my holistic Dr. While I’ve been sitting today, I’m currently working on reading my book, fatal festival days, the same one I was reading the other day when I posted. Later guys.

I know in my last post, I mentioned I’m a Christian. Well, lately, I’ve been dealing with some stuff that God has been dealing with me on and, reading this, wow. I’ve been wondering how much of the stuff I’m fighting him on lately, this explains the fallback I’ve been getting. God’s not directly causing my issues, but he’s surely not releasing me from them just yet either, until I fully surrender to him and fully obey God. Is anybody else having these thoughts? I’d like to hear them. Maybe we can work through them together.

Night all 🙋

I have returned

7-26-19 Fri

Good evening all, I know, I’ve been dormant for awhile and due to life and health issues, I just let things go. Well I’m one who deals with invisible illnesses and don’t worry too terribly much about trying to explain it to others, unless it’s family and sometimes even then, I ignore them. I know there’s probably many many of you with invisible illnesses that aren’t sure where to go to research, vent, or have anyone who understands. I do. Here is where you can vent and be where someone understands what it’s like to have issues, feel like crap, be cranky because something inside isn’t right and not be ignored or turned away.

I am a stay at home mom and wife. I’m happily married to my best friend, a trucker. Let me tell ya, he can be cranky with the rest of us. 😂😂 I’m also mom to four beautiful children, two of which have moved out on their own and two in, oh dare I say, high school! Teenagers, gotta love em. I’m a Jill of all trades, master of none, but I do my best with what I’ve been blessed with. Im also a Christian. I’m also a Trump supporter. Sorry for those that aren’t. 😓 I don’t judge here, you can still come visit, even if you don’t support Trump.

I’m an avid reader, although with being ill,I haven’t done much physical reading. I’m part of book groups on Facebook, and haven’t been real active there either. But being writing is what my passion is, I decided that I’d start utilizing my blog for what I originally started it for, writing. Also for posting my reading habits on, if you’re gonna write, you’ve gotta read too.

I’ll post again tomorrow and give a better detail of the most fun part of my health ordeal lately.

Have a great night all. Oh, and what I’m reading currently now.
