Title: Prayers please for my wife
Post by: Snakeeater on February 19, 2007, 10:26:00 PM
Hi guys and gals,

My wife Jan was having severe headaches for about a week and thought that it was a bad sinus infection. After seeing the doctor it turns out that she has something called trigeminal neuralgia, or TN for short. TN is nerve pain that just comes on for no reason, it just happens. It happens along the head and face and has been described as the worst pain known to man. She describes it like an electric shock. She hasn't had a decent nights sleep in a week.

We are trying to treat it with medications and it seems to help some but it makes her kind of groggy. We don't know if medication will do the trick or if surgery will be required. TN can also go into "remission" and just go away,which is what we are praying for.

Anyway, if you could add Jan and our family to your prayers and ask that the Lord takes this from her and leaves her healed we would all appreciate it.

  :pray:    :pray:    :pray:  

God bless you all,

Larry Schwartz

Sorry to hear that Snake.  Poor Jan... having to put up with you and the kids and now this!  :)

Seriously, deepest prayers for deep healing by God's hand... that He alone might spread His loving arms around Jan and just drive this malies to it's knees and into remission.  

We know that Jan will attest mightily to it being the Lord's work and give Him all the Glory!

Thank you guys. The MRI results came back clean so it isn't a tumor or anything else physically wrong.
  :clapper:  

They increased the dosage and we will see how things go. With prayer and His will this will all go away and we will have another praise report to spread around.

Keep us in your prayers.

Hey Brother,
I know how you feel, when a loved one is sick, you just want to take their pain away. Just hang in there and with the GRACE OF GOD it will all come together according to HIS plan.
                GOD BLESS YOU & YOUR FAMILY

Thanks again to everyone. The medication seems to be controlling it. We are going to start reducing the dosage to see how that works. I will keep you all posted on our progress.

WOW! You guys are really going thru a lot!
JC and I have an 11year old son who has terrible migraines. They are so vicious and really put him down. The pediatrician just put him on a preventative medication he takes twice a day and what a miricle! He has been migraine free for three weeks. What a blessing!

We will be praying that this will happen for Jan as well. God is so good to put us with the right doctors who can help us.


Lord, we rebuke the pain that Jan is having in the name of Jesus Christ. We ask for complete healing and a total remission in the name of Jesus. We believe that you hear our prayers and will answer them. Thank you Lord.

Please keep us informed.
I am so sorry you and your family are really being tested right now. We will continue prayers.
Kim

Well, Jan has been able to wean herself off of the medication for a few days. Let us all pray that it something that she can continue to do and that this has gone into remission.

Please keep us in your prayers and thank you all again for adding us to your prayer lists.

Blessing and thanks,

Larry

Praise report time...Jan was able to wean herself off of the medication and it looks like it has gone into remission!

Thank you all for keeping us in your prayers. Now we just continue to walk with Him and pray that this doesn't come back.

Regards and thanks,

Larry

Prayers sent for your wife from here.

Also with my current problem this is interesting.  Does she have upper teeth pain also like sinus infections?  I should get results soon from my catscan on my sinuses.  I have had severe headaches for weeks and this comes and goes a few times a year.  Broke down and tried a Zomig of my wifes today and it helped a LOT. (migrain medicine).

Bowdude,

It wasn't sinus or migraine pain. Definitely from this facial nerve. Thankfully, it is gone as we prayed it would.
