Strangely inflamed ankles - feeling hobbled
It's day 11, Thursday, since starting Belinostat. In general, I have been doing well. I'm taking apple cider vinegar, honey, and cinnamon "tea" 2 - 3 times a day to combat the general feeling of acidity in my esophagus and stomach, and because the anti-acid IV helped me so much the last day of Belinostat. I hate how I feel on the drug the doctor prescribed so I stopped taking it after 2 days.
The idea of adding vinegar to the body to combat acid is so contrary to the common thoughts on the subject - in fact, the doctor told me to chew on tums. Years ago our son, Cameron, had a terrible infection causing painful sores in his esophagus. It was his research that first taught us about the dangers of taking antacids. I can't tell you how many times our children have led us to knowledge and I'm so grateful for it.
The very strange new symptom took hold the evening of day 9; my ankles feel like I have sprained them. It's a very ugly feeling of inflammation. They don't look swollen - they just hurt and I feel hobbled. It's strange that it is the inside of my right ankle and the outside of my left ankle. My mind goes to worries that it might last or spread. Then I pray for God to heal them and trust in his timing.
I'm encouraged this morning that they feel a little bit better. I don't have any really good cannabis creams or anything. I need to find a good supplier here in CO.
I pray you are doing well as we are all still under the stay-at-home orders. I pray your finances are providing for you, that you are feeling healthy and strong, that your mind is at rest in the waiting and watching and learning and discerning what is going on, and that you know the Hope that doesn't disappoint is loving the heck outta you!
