    Eye can’t even IMAGINE meeting a Doctor like this 🥼 😭
    Sending LOVE to all CRPS patients and their loved ones...... ♥️
    This disease is HELL on earth. 🔥
    👉 Edited to add 👉Today I found out my CRPS has spread to my (L) limb - it’s already down the entire (R) side of my body - I’ve been battling suicidal ideation for a few weeks.
    The CPTSD associated with medical negligence, gaslighting and discriminatory actions by uneducated clinicians is also another heartbreaking complication of this disease.

    I was diagnosed with crps of the abdomen 2014, had appendicitis and had my appendix removed, day I was discharged i could barely walk, took 4 weeks to learn how to walk again plus I had limited stamina and strength... and I experienced excruciating burning abdominal pain which radiated to legs back arms you name it.. I felt like I was physically on fire and the swelling omg
    Anyway 3 yrs later after multiple doctors and then a pain specialist I was diagnosed with crps type 2 of the abdomen .. thats where it was constantly
    My transverse muscles, lower back muscles don't work, my hip flexor muscles and abdominal muscles barely work but yeah couldn't use or put strain on my abdomen as it would start a chain reaction of burning pain all over my body and when I say excruciating burning .. that doesn't begin to describe the pain I felt .. 20 hours of pain only to follow it up with up to 6 weeks of muscular pain when ever I moved so couldn't get out of bed for most of the 6 weeks .. after 4 weeks was when I started really to walk around for a bit ... wouldn't wish it on your worst enemy .. well thought about it lol
    Nov 2020 now and I've learnt to live with it, I know my limits and what I can and can't do, must admit its not as bad as the first 5 yrs but im carefull none the less
    Thank you for that presentation, if only my doctors had that info

      Well to tell the truth, being a born again Christian with the evidence of speaking in tongues, attending The Revival Fellowship, i was healed of a damaged spine when I was a teenager after recently being filled with the Spirit and just praying about it ... so when this came about and being in pain one time, it gave me the impression I was swimming in the lake of fire described in Revelation.
      So wasn't much I could do except pray in the Spirit altho the vibrations from praying would aggravate my chest muscles ect and set off the pain .. so I said ok Lord you gave me tongues as proof of the Spirit, your word says we should pray in the Spirit so if you want me to pray in the Spirit you need to do something .. was shortly after that I realised I could pray for more than 5 min .. infact I could pray in tongues for 30 min without an issue.
      What didnt help was the variety of drugs doctors got me to take, the only drug that did help was lyrica but even that had its limits, and now I'm only taking 300mg twice a day but recently dropped to 225mg twice a day.
      Some might say good on me for believing in a figment of my imagination lol but honestly crps doesn't stop on a dime and it doesn't discriminate either but when I was healed of 2 herniated discs in my lower back as a teenager and been listening to peoples testimonials about how God had healed them, seeing my dad healed of blindness etc .. a number of things kept ticking over in my head and that was I was a son of the living God, my body is the temple of the Holy Ghost, Jesus took not only our sins and iniquities but also our diseases so while i was healed of my spine overnight he says ask and keep on asking so thats what I did and now I'm at where I'm at.
      Not because of modern medicine, or any medical breakthrough or operation but just praying in the Spirit reminding the Lord of his promises to us :)
      I do find it mazing tho is that I still don't have use of my abdominal muscles, traverse or lower back muscles so technically no core strength yet but i seem to be able to move almost normally, given that 6 years of weakened muscles not being what they use to be I need to strengthen them up again, even my neck back and leg muscles are feeling alot better.
      Yes it's not an instant healing like other healings ive had but I know its of the Lord because nothing else had helped, I know people have gone into remission from the disease with help from doctors and procedures which is good to hear and a credit to those doctors but I can give praise to a living God in my life :)
      If anyone else wants to give God a go by all means drop into one of our assemblies and ask for prayer :)

      This is absolutely amazing! I am 35 years old and have had this monster for 10.5 years now.
      I had surgery on both feet April 29th 2010. Unfortunately I never got over the surgical pain
      I was then diagnosed a few months later. Actually it was Nov 2010.
      It had spread to all limbs and plus the horrible muscle spasms come along with it.
      I'm just now learning about these very informative videos from this Doc. He's AMAZING. Thanks be to the Lord my close family have been by my side ever since. My daughter was 3 when the diagnosis was valid. My husband is very understanding. But my whole life will be forever changed. I had to file for Disability, and I got it immediately. I never had to fight that part of the government system.
      I have full body now and have had it all over for 9.5 years. I have 2 stimulators, 1 for upper and 1 for lower limbs.
      Thank you so very, very much.
      I am from Allen Texas

      Never give up, Keep going until the clock runs out :)
      This life is sooo temporary and all the things in it too. There really is another place called heaven that Jesus himself and others talk about. They talked about it so much and knew it was so true that they even gave up their lives in order to tell everybody the good news and truth of the gospel :) God needs you to be here and hasnt caused but allowed bad things In this life to happen in order to shape your character and build your strength so You can persevere through anything :) (James 1 verse 2). Jesus talked about another place after earth gets gone where there will be no more pain or sickness ever again And that God is gonna give you a new body that doesn't hurt anymore (you should read revelation 21 Verse 4) Trust God and not the doctors. :) he wants your full attention and he has alot he wants to show you :)
