Prayer request- for aches and pains and stiffness in almost the entire body

Not sure if I could request prayers on this christian forum. If I could, may I please request your prayers?

Here's my condition overview:

I've had awful stiffnes and pain since last January- in my ribs, spine pelvis, groin, legs, feet, arms pretty much the whole body- concentrated in the hip area and the knees. It also caused urinary incontince because the muscles in the concerned area were strained perhaps. There could be three causes or a combination of them:

1. Not layering enough in extremely cold weather (under-dressed) being new to cold climate
2. Jumping, dancing- on an empty stomach for an hour every morning five days a week for several months
3. Walking long distances in the cold/snow despite the initial pain
4. Jumping and walking with the winter boots with an inch or less of heels (even though flat) all this while

I have never had any such pain before and so did not take it seriously and thought it would just go with a good sleep and rest- but it did not. Before I realized over a year has passed.

Went to doctors two three months ago- x-rays, blood work. All is normal- no arthiritis. Differnt medications- very temporary relief- don't want to have any more medications. The x-ray shows I have four lower ribs instead of five. But they say it is ususal to have four to six.

It felt like the pain was deep in the bones but the x-rys are normal. They are guessing it could be a muscle strain or lumbar pain.

My pelvic area hurts- waist is stiff, knees are stiff- cannot squat unless I do so very slowly (even then painful)-cannot get back up without support.

Spine hurts at the base of the neck and a little before the tail bone.

Ribs hurt a lot- now with warm climate and lots of rest, that pain has almost gone

Arms and shoulder blades hurt- cannot carry much weight

Do not have complete balance when I walk, if somebody brushes past me carelessly, I could lose balance and fall

Have been out of work for five months because needed to take a break- since I did not seem to get much better

I eat lots of fruits and vegetables and feel better on days I don't eat salt or cooked food.

Feel better when I fast- but don't feel like it anymore.

I sit in a hot water tub with salt water once a day for 10-15 minutes- that has helped somewhat but not as much as I would like.

This has affected and restricted my activities. I can walk fast but get stiff and pained after.

I cannot jog or run. It hurts my feet too much. I feel some kind of heaviness in the legs.


I desperately need help because I am really brok and in debt and need to get ok quickly to work again.

Thank you so much.

God bless.
