Prayer Request

Please pray for LMM. She has had a headache every day for a week now. From Friday around noon to Sunday afternoon, the headache was so bad she was in bed just moaning that entire time. She could not sit up or stand without making it worse. I called our doctor and the earliest I can get her in is tomorrow afternoon. Her symptoms seem to indicate a tension headache as opposed to a migraine. I'm beginning to suspect that the headaches this week are a result of insomnia. She has struggled off and on with insomnia all her life. Earlier this summer she was having a problem with it and we were able to break the bad sleeping pattern she had developed. The severe headache last week may not be insomnia-related, but once that headache started, she slept badly, and this week has again struggled to get to sleep until after 2 or even 4 am. She just lays in bed unable to sleep for hours.

I've been using Mommy Diagnostics to address both the headaches and the insomnia. Insomnia remedies that have always worked before are not working. The thing that helped some with the severe headache was a combination of ibuprofen and ginger. Nothing really gives her much relief from the headaches this week. They seem to come on about an hour after she gets up and get better in the late afternoon or evening, regardless of what she's taking for pain, and even if she hasn't taken anything in a while. She says they don't ever fully go away. They come back in the late evening.

I want her healed! Please pray with me that the Lord will touch her body and heal her from all of this right now! I can't stand to watch her suffer and nothing I do seems to help. It's especially hard when she wakes me up at 2am, like she did this morning, to say she hasn't slept, and I don't know what to do. Ask for wisdom for me to know how to take care of her. On Sunday I fasted about it, and she got better Sunday afternoon, for the first time in 3 days. If you feel lead to join me, I will be fasting again tomorrow if she is not healed by then.
