I hate having to do this, but sometimes the hardest thing is admitting that you need help.
Last year, I gave birth to my fifth child. I had ten years of healthy pregnancies, and overall healthy living (aside from minor bugs, etc.) But after having the last baby, I noticed a rapid decline in my health. Gastro-intestinal issues. An inability to nurse my baby. Unexplained weight loss. Heart issues. After a trip to the ER, I was diagnosed with hyperthyroidism and placed on thyroid medication. Some symptoms improved, though others did not.
It has now been eight months since my diagnosis, and it is clear that something else is wrong. I am still sick. I wake up every morning between 3am and 5am feeling nauseated. I am still losing weight. I've eliminated many things from my diet, but am still feeling ill many times after I eat. I am exhausted. I'm unable to care for my family as I want and need to. And the difficulty is that the standard ER doctors and general practitioners just don't seem to know what's going on.
So I need to see specialists. But they don't fall under our insurance umbrellas. And we honestly cannot afford the extra medical expense right now.
My hope is to see a specialist who can dig deep and find the source of the issues I'm suffering with and help to heal me.
I know this is a difficult time of year as we are coming up on the holidays, but my family and I need some help. If you can help us, I will be forever grateful. And if you cannot, I understand that, as well.
So happy holidays, and if you pray, I hope that you will send up a prayer for healing for myself and also that you will keep myself and my family in your thoughts.
Thank you,
