\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 I had hoped to go to the gym for my first workout in more than seven years but did not make it.\u00a0 By the time clothes were washed my neuropathy had flared up to where I was on fire and beyond the ability to handle it.<\/span><\/p>\n

\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 So far today I’ve eaten 2100MG of gabapentin which at the moment is not sufficient to suppress this nerve pain.\u00a0 Today it started with strange stabbing pains to the right side of my belly, then they migrated to my left leg midway between foot and knee.\u00a0 Now I’m burning all over.<\/span><\/p>\n

\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 If I had ANY idea how much pain would be involved, I would not have ever allowed myself to get into this condition.<\/span><\/p>\n

\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 But now at least I know my heart is good, in between the intense bouts of pain I will make it to the gym and begin working on this.\u00a0 I have ample motivation.<\/span><\/p>\n

\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 Emotionally this is really tugging me in two directions.\u00a0 On the one hand, night after night of searing pain and agony, difficulty sleeping because of it, these things are depressing.<\/span><\/p>\n

\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 On the other hand, God has brought me so far spiritually, and now he is pointing out my physical deficiencies and giving me a path to remedy those as well.\u00a0 I believe God would not be working on my so much if he did not have something very worthwhile for me to do in my future.\u00a0 So that aspect of it excites me.\u00a0 I am not proud of my past but I am being given an opportunity to do something better with my remaining years.<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
