I took a fall on Friday morning after losing my balance when my whole leg was asleep. I managed to give myself a compression fracture on my L4 vertebrae. Not fun.
I am in a lot of pain in spite of the medicine given me. I was told healing would take up to six weeks or longer. And I need to see a neurosurgeon in 6 weeks to assess my healing.
I am typically a very active 70 year old who exercises frequently, clean my own home, mow my lawn, prune bushes and weed gardens. I have never been an invalid. So this is very frustrating for me.
I was told I cannot bend, lift, or twist for at least 6 weeks. I couldn’t anyway bc of the pain.
I am asking for prayers for complete healing as I don’t want to have to go through any surgery in the future for this. Also need prayers for pain.
Thanks in advance to all you prayer frog warriors out there.
I understand that boron supplements help with osteoporosis. Here's an example:

u/tewdryg is the fren who knows about it I think.
I haven't heard of this. I'll take a look.
FTA: "Boron supplementation cannot be recommended on the basis of current research."
I.e. there's no profit in it.
ASEA water is all natural made from purified salt water. The process it goes through turns it into redox signaling molecules that each and every one of us has in our bodies. As we age we lose these molecules so our bodies are more prone to problems. It works at the cellular level. So it works in five areas: circulation, reduces inflammation in body, gut health, hormones and the immune system. It goes where it is needed the most. I was skeptical about it at first but took it due to needing to increase statins ( which is the only prescription I am on for now). Before o took it my blood sugars went up. Plus I had developed a left branch bundle block ( electrical heart issue). So I decide to try it. They have water and a gel you can use for pain. I am using both. In one month I had no arthritic joint pain (or pain from the statins). My cholesterol went down to normal except for LDL which is only just above normal so that I didn’t need to increase my statins which doctor wanted to do. The biggest thing is I am growing back bone so no more bone meds for now. Also my AC1 last time was in the normal range. Also it raised my vitamin D levels substantially.
You can purchase ASEA from a associate of the company. I became one when I started it. I don’t push it on anyone but have sold it mostly to family members and a few friends. One whose doctor wanted to know what she was doing since her statins went to normal after only a few months. She was never on a statin. The company is based in Utah. A Mormon family. This is sold through a pyramid system as they figured out it was the best way to sell it. They refused to go through a drug company who offered to buy it from them. They have scientific data to back it up. It is FDA approved as a supplement. So they cannot claim it cures disease. However there are testimonials from many people in a private group in Facebook on how it has helped them or their loved ones. From autoimmune issues to kidney dialyses to skin issues etc.
Thank you for the details fren!
If mods are willing, which company is it distributed through? If they don't want the company name here, can you message me that info please?
edit: Looks like the name of the company may be ASEA
Good info on borax...I started taking it as suggested in article and I find it helps with arthritis. I had been taking glucosamine/chondroitan and hyaurolonic acid...but this is a lot cheaper and works well...
Here is a good site..
