My visit to the rheumatologist yesterday morning went well and the news was good. I do not have RA, Lupus or Scleraderma. Praise God - we are so thankful! I do however have a very, very low Vitamin D level - the normal range is 70-100 and mine is 29. The doctor put me on a very high dose of Vitamin D and hopefully the problem will be corrected from that. Thank the Lord for answered prayer!
These last few weeks have been most difficult for me and I have not had a seizure free day in weeks so I am drained - emotionally and physically. God has been my anchor and the refuge of my soul. I have been very still and known that He is God in these few weeks - sometimes it takes huge events to make us slow down and remember that God is in control. I welcome these times, difficult as they may be, because they remind me Who I am trusting and why.
Please pray for me in the coming weeks as I have started a new seizure medication, in addition to the one I currently take. I never really like starting a new medication because I have such severe reactions to almost every medication I have ever taken. I am praying that I will not react badly to this one, giving it a chance to work. Again, I am being very still at the feet of my Jesus, knowing that He is God.
Today this will be short because I am not feeling that well but I just want us all to remember, especially if you are journeying with me in hardship and trials - God knows your name and loves you so very much. Allow Him to hold you today in whatever valley you find yourself.
Rejoicing in Hope,
Roxanne
