Thanks White Tiger. I always enjoy your posts, in fact, I think with your knowledge of herbs and supplements you could have your own forum. Owen suggested I take Vitamin C for my spine problems and sent me some to get started. Right now I generally take 6-10 grams of sodium ascorbate and also some ascorbic acid that is in the Disc-Gard supplement from my doctor. I am also using raw apple cider vinegar and cayenne, although I went off of that a few days to see if it was causing gastric distress.
I do appreciate your prayers too. This has been a huge test of faith and I have not always come out victorious. As I've written, I am not only hoping and praying for physical healing, but emotional and spiritual healing as well.
