I recommend Magnesium in a pure water solution and spray your hands every day and see if you improve …, Rub it in so it will go through the skin , Magnesium will remove the calcium and make it go where it is supposed to go . Of course discuss this with your Doctor as I want to make sure you feel good about it . Mag helps your body in more ways than one ,… I will pray for you today also . One could take the pills by mouth but the rubbing it in will pin point where you need it . Most people have a magnesium problem by not having enough .

You might also consider plasma (PRP) and/or stem cell injection treatments. I had it done to my wrists, elbows, and knees and had good results. Problem is that it’s expensive and insurance typically doesn’t cover it. I lucked out and had a Gold Pick member doc in L.A. hook me up.

Quick update. Miss being on here a lot. Haven’t played banjo in about a month. Finally got the doctor to refer me to a hand specialist. The stiffness in my fingers is still there which I expect but the real pain in my middle finger mid knuckle is still intensely there. GP thinks finally time to get looked at for real. Hope solutions come. I miss you guys (gals too) but mostly I miss my banjo. :stuck_out_tongue:

Mark 11;22-24 When you pray, believe that you receive Luke 11;5-13 Because of his persistence !!! Luke 18; 1-8 Yet because this widow troubleth me, i will avenge her, lest by her continual coming she weary me !!! JESUS’s words. Not mine

thanks!

Thanks. I hope so as well. Progress is slow but I guess that is to be expected. He had to let me take steps to see if I was injured or just old. lol

Update: Went to sports orthopedic today. X-rays were great. Doctor said there doesn’t seem to be any issues in movement. He said really the rheumatologist saying I had some osteoarthritis was a stretch.

He really didn’t have any advice on the issue I am having. So I am not sure what to think. He said more than likely overuse. I personally would think after a month off I’d feel pretty good if overuse. He recommended I ice and heat well and just take it slow.

So that is it I guess. I still need to look into the red light machine. But beyond that I am not sure my next steps.

Thanks for the prayers.

Well, I’m glad it’s not serious, but at the same time, I’m really sorry there’s no proper diagnosis.Sounds like you’re down to alternative therapies, which isn’t such a bad thing. A lot of actual healing happens in the alternative world.

Have you thought about giving GOD the glory ? Maybe a healing taking place !!!

Good idea. You can never give God too much glory.

Sharingtime,

I thought I share this.

Does God want you to be healed?
Absolutely yes. For this purpose the Son of God was manifested, that he might destroy the works of the devil. (I John 3:8)

What do I do to get healed?
There is 2 part to this healing - God’s part and Man’s part. God’s part is done already, what is left in this healing process is Man’s part only.

God’s part

This part is already finished on the cross.
The chastisement of our peace was upon him! (Isaiah 53:5).
By whose stripes you WERE healed. (I Peter 2:24)
Sin consequences are paid for and we are acquitted, so no double jeopardy.

Man’s part

  1. If you want to accomplish the manifestation of healing yourself
  • Be in Christ (Repent and believe)
  • Know/Understand the truths like above about healing, and have faith
  • Allow a capacity for God’s power of resurrection to operate by having Spirit of holiness. (Ephesians 1:19,20, Romans 1:4) When you know the truth (Jesus’ words), it santifies you and provides you this spirit of holiness.
    For example, who is a great believer? One who converted thousands or healed hundreds? No! Whosoever shall do and teach his commandments as is (Matthew 5:19). Whoever humble himself as little child (Matthew 18:4)
    The more correct judgment you can make as per Jesus commandments, the more you get the Spirit of holiness. As you know, the eyes of the Lord are looking for such perfect heart to operate his power! (2 Chronicles 16:9)
  1. If you want someone else to accomplish the manifestation of healing for you.
  • Reach out to a person described in 1.

Deuteronomy 28 has the blessing and curse list. Healing is part of blessing so in order for healing to manifest, you will need either OUR righteousness or HIS righteousness. It is proven that OUR righteousness is not good enough (filthy rags), so we depend upon HIS rightousness.

  1. OUR Righteousness (comes from our works)
    And it shall be our righteousness, if we observe to do all these commandments before the Lord our God, as he hath commanded us. (Deut 6:25)

  2. HIS Righteousness (comes from Jesus’s faith)
    Knowing that a man is not justified by the works of the law, but by the faith of Jesus Christ, even we have believed in Jesus Christ, that we might be justified by the faith of Christ, and not by the works of the law: for by the works of the law shall no flesh be justified. (Galatians 2:16)

HIS rightousness manifests through faith.

So we go to God with this belief and prayer.

Father God, the penalty is already paid in full and you did it through your son for my peace. Therefore this sickness has no business in my body. Since this healing gift or grace is provided for already, I access and claim it through this simple faith. Satan cannot deceive me any longer about what rightfully belong to me. I come to your court with this request in Jesus’ name. Amen.

You will be completely ok! :slight_smile:

John

Just wanted to add this. As a matter of fact, OUR righteousness was never an option for Gentiles to receive blessing. And now for everyone that believes, HIS righteousness is the only option, as Christ is now the end of the law for righteousness for everyone that believes. (Romans 10:4).

This has been a constant prayer. I want to be better if you want me to be. Hard part is I can’t see why he’d want me not to be playing banjo. Lol.
