Me at 63 free of any sign of diabetes, etc.
Still chubby but healthy, and very happy with my life.
Except for the boils. Taken in May 2012 |
Where do I begin. I just found out a few weeks ago after an emergency room visit that I have MRSA. Sorry about the misspelling of the tittle. I was er am really out of it. I just got out of the hospital today because I had a MRSA blowout. My doctor said it was really good that I got there in time as it had now entered my bloodstream, and I was quite toxic. So I was hospitalized for 5 days of intense antibiotics, and steroids IV therapy. Great.

But now I feel so sick. And sad, for a moment, but, I know I will be fine. I feel sad because I spent a whole year free and clear of diabetic episodes to the point where I was off all 300+ medications that I had been taking to control my diabetes, hypertension and high cholesterol. Diabetics usually have to deal with the forementioned illnessses and then some. However, now with this eposide of MRSA and with the meds they put me on. It's all back. My head hurts so much they had to give me morphine and sent me home with a bottle of hydrocodone/acetaminophine. I don't like putting all these meds in my body at all. I don't like feeling like this at all. But I have faith and know this will pass. And I am grateful that it was finally identified in time and is being taken care of. Trust me, I am thanking the Lord all the way.

My doctored cup of noodles, that tasted
better than any hospital food I had with
my herbs and spices. |
I got home today, and I feel so weak. My body feels like it has been put through the wringer. So I open my bag of meds they give me and I am so weak I can hardly stand on my own two feet. I am back on oxygen, because of my asthma is really trying to let me have it good. My eyes feel like they are about to come out of their sockets. I don't have an appetite, but because of all the meds I have to take, I don't want my sugar to drop, I dragged myself to the kitchen, holding on to the appliances for support, I was able to boil some water. I added some frozen veggies to the pot, herbs, and a cup of noodles. I topped it with a sprinkle of a cured chopped tofu cheese I had made a week earlier. Dinner was served. Usually I enjoy cooking but not today. At least I was able to do that. Thank God.
For about 15 years I have been dealing with huge painful boils on my belly. I've been in a few nursing homes because of other major diagnosis, the boils were always put on the back burner so to speak. Funny, because every hospitalization they found some sort of bacteria and could never pinpoint it. Till now.
The good thing is that I am home now, Thank God and there is not one needle in my arm. Yes I will continue taking all these medications they put me back on to control all that ails me. Hoping the boils outbreaks will clear once and for all. However, know that I as soon as I am able I will do everything to recover back to the way I was feeling a few weeks ago being diabetic, hypertension, and cholesterol free. So today I take all these pills...but as soon as I can I will be back to where I was. I know that,"I can do all things through Christ, who strenghtens me. Phil 4:13
Lord, knows, I know what I need to do and that AFTER my body has healed completely I will be back on my natural probiotics, like my ferments, kifers, and kombucha. It worked for me before and is a more natural healing, that is so much easier on my body. I will be working with a doctor who works with alternative medicine. Yay, right up my alley, where he encourages me to continue my fermented foods, and probiotics. Yes.
Well, that's it for now. I am wiped out. Goodnight and God Bless
Sincerely
Mary Helen
