Please pray for my dad ๐
๐งMental/Physical Health ๐๐ผโโ๏ธ
He recently threw out his back ( that part seems to be over for now which is good, specifically according to him that part is now over, it was more of his spine )
But now heโs having very bizarre and painful back-muscle-spasms/cramps. When it happens, he jerks his body around and starts collapsing to the floor.
Weโre all unvaxxed btw.
I would suggest the following supplementations:
Holy Father, please bless u/Qtoad father with a swift healing, plenty of serenity and plenty of loving family times.
Thanks man, itโs reassuring to see that list ๐
Iโm gonna show him asap.
Please, thank our Dear u/Tweety51A for the borax: thatโs what stopped my back to ache and burn like hell after 3 hour drives.
The Hericium I got a friend to take after a loooong Covid (so they say) left her mind foggy. Now, sheโs feeling much better after 6 weeks.
You can get โboronโ supplements in a pill form for the borax. The twenty mule team Iโve given to my dog when he was limping. It has a scary โpoisonโ label on it.
I'll have to check my box of Borax. If the only ingredient listed is Borax, then it's not poison (I think). Anyway, I've taken it for muscle pain and it works quite well. Also Diatomaceous earth.
Borax is extremely poisonous to insects. For humans, it is five times LESS toxic than table salt. So itโs perfectly safe to consume the same amount of borax as you would salt.
Thanks for the input,
Iโm gonna show him this too :D
u/Tweety51A Thanks for your help and kindness :3
edit: spelling
I lift up your father in prayer...the Lord often allows these things to show us things we need to correct and balance in our lives...He is kind loving and gracious in that way. I pray that God's healing hand will be on your father and that He will give him all knowledge necessary to be made whole. We pray for God's grace, mercy and healing for your dad in the precious name of Jesus...
I concur with the suggestions of Penisse and I want to add that I have posted a lot about utilizing 20 Mule Team Borax. I hope people diligently research this before discounting it's usefulness and cost effectiveness. There is much annotated research and a booklet entitled "The Boron Conspiracy"...but as always one should use discernment and their own intelligence when studying to discover truth on any subject. Boron tablets can certainly be utilized to remedy the pain of arthritis/inflammation/injury....
Another thing to keep in mind is that there are different forms of magnesium and they each have different effects on the body. Magnesium glycinate is specifically for cramping but some people prefer blends that incorporate several different forms. I use this form for nocturnal leg cramps. There is great research online with Dr. Berg and entire videos on the different forms and their uses. It is worthwhile research. God bless your family.

Dearest tweety, thank you for your amazing information AND joining you in your beautiful prayer!
Qtoad, bless your father and you for lifting him up in prayer... JESUS is the PERFECT HEALER! ๐
Thanks fam :)
Iโm gonna show him your comment when he wakes up,
thanks for all of your generous info again :)))
Amen.
He needs an MRI. He may have a compression fracture of one or more of his vertebrae. This happened to my dad when he slipped and fell back on the stairs. X-rays showed nothing. His family doctor said he just had 'muscle or bone bruising' which was an incorrect diagnosis.
After the stairs incident, Dad was besieged with severe back spasms and kicking and thrashing, especially while attempting to sleep, causing him to fling himself off the bed onto the floor, further hurting himself!
I took him to the ER and demanded further tests. They gave him an MRI which showed several vertebrae as having compression fractures (collapsed into a smaller vertical size). Dad was very old and his bones were fragile I guess.
The solution was to do a kyphoplasty procedure where they inflate a balloon in the collapsed vertebrae to restore the bone height to its proper size, then an injection of a bone cement into the vertebral body, taking the pressure off the pinched nerves. It completely fixed the problem.
I wish you luck. Keep us posted!
I just showed him your comment and he says it sounds exactly like him, because he has Osteoporosis.
Thanks sharing and shedding light on his mysterious pain.
You are welcome!
This is great information...the addition of Vitamin D/K in the diet has greatly helped people to avoid osteoporosis. It helps to transport calcium to the bones. Knowledge is always power and this surely was valuable information for everyone..
Praying now.
Thanks Mr :^)
Heavenly Father, we pray for Qtoad's father to heal his back and the spasms he is suffering. Reach your loving hands down from Heaven and touch him with the Holy Spirit. Release the power of healing upon him Lord as we ask this in Jesus name. Thank you Lord for your mercy and love. Amen.
Thank you Mary :)
I pray he is alright. Back pain is no laughing matter.
Iโve never seen it this bad before;
he throws himself around like a ragdoll.
It almost looks like heโs being tazed.
Bless him. I don't remember it, but my mother said that my father did something to his back once. He did the same thing. His brother had to bring a twin bed over and literally tie my father down on it atop of a board. That was when my mother and father stopped sleeping together. I know that sounds sad, but he had to have a bed to himself. He eventually got over it as he worked on the Railroad, and I'm the 4th out of 8 kids, so I guess the separate bed didn't turn out too bad. We'll continue to pray for him and God will see him through.
Thatโs reassuring to hear.
Haha! Love finds a way :D
Thank you very much :)
You are soooooooooooo WELCOME.
May your father recover from his back problems fren!
Thankd frenalen.
Sending prayers to Qtoad's father and to all members of the extended family...
Thank you :DDD
Done.
And God bless this community. Sounds like a possible answer/solution has been found. Keep us posted, please.
Thanks :)
Ya, lotโs of helpful/useful info and lots of hope too.
Will do.

Prayers and blessings for your dad. I hope he heals in all ways needed.
Wim hoff method & fasting for cellular regeneration
My co-worker told me about this guy a few years ago.
Iโll go check him out and tell my dad too.
Thanks for the Breathing-Redpill ๐
I am saving your info...I will check it out to learn about it. Depression is very real and unfortunately I just lost a niece to suicide because of depression. I love that there are alternative ways to heal. I have used EFT for many emotional and physical pain issues and it is amazing the body's natural ability to heal itself if we only know how to tap into some of the amazing features it has. I have found that God often does not heal things outright but always gives us the tools we need to be healed. I thank you for your ministry and desire to serve to make this world a better place. God bless you.
I tried a cold shower once because it was a hot day,
and i got sick lol..
I am in a continuous battle with back pain due to degenerative discs. I don't take meds, occassionally ibuprofen.
Here is what helps me
I haven't had cramps or spasms where my body jerks around, likely a different issue, but thought I would share.
My dad asked,
โwhat do you consider sitting too long in 1 place?โ
30 minutes?
1 hour?
depends on the day and how he is feeling. Not sure there is a set time, but I notice on the weekends I have more back pain, b/c I sit too much. Probably a good idea to stand up and walk around at least each hour. Even if only for a minute or two.
I can't sit on my sofa, I can only sit in a recliner with lumbar or my office chair. If I sit on a couch for more than a few minutes I can feel it. It must be the slouching putting pressure on my low back. My back pain is the 2 lowest vertebrae, if his pain is in different parts he may have to try other things.
I also bought a teeter inversion table, I stretch by hanging upside down at 60 degrees for 3 minutes a day. I have read of possible issues with high blood pressure with inversion tables, I am in my late 40s.
thermacare heat wraps help a lot on occasion, not a daily thing, just if he has a real bad day.
I had back surgery once years ago, but they just removed fragments from one of my discs and pushed it back in place. Went to a nuerosurgeon, he warned me against spinal fusion, which is what orthopedics do.
I just showed him and he read the whole thing.
Thanks a million ๐
glad to do it. hope it brings him some relief.
Get some magnesium for him. Perhaps he eats a lot of sugar?? Magnesium s=is needed to process sugar and magnesium helps with muscle cramps. So, give Mg a shot.
He does take Electrolyte-Drips with his water ( Magnesium being 1 of the ingredients ) but maybe he should try Magnesium supplement pills for more magnesium than heโs currently getting.
Thanks I wasnโt aware of the connection between Magnesium, sugar, and muscle cramps.
That may even help me with the muscle cramps I get with my job.
Sometimes I get Leg Cramps when going to bed and right now Iโm getting finger cramps from washing dishes.
There is also a homeopathic blend named leg cramps that is made by Hyland's that works great for immediate relief. Some of the formulas contain homeopathic quinine which is a plus for those that like to take HCQ. It is very easy to use...also there is a magnesium oil that I also use. It is actually a liquid that can be rubbed on and that is also very effective...so many options. There are many different options for treating leg cramps or magnesium deficiency.
Thanks again and again and again for all of your help and kindness :D

Besides all the supplements, consider getting a massage from a GOOD massage therapist. Often physical therapy offices have them. I too have back problems and go to a chiropractor who is a 40+ year family friend. One time I was in such pain, I couldnโt make it to his office so I forked over the $150 for a massage and it helped immensely. That was a couple of years ago. I went again a few days before Thanksgiving and I still feel amazing.
Praying for your father to get relief. ๐ Edit: I just read CasuallyObservantโฆ.MRI might be best before manipulation.
I just showed him your comment, thanks for sharing your personal experience ๐
He'll be in my prayers.
Thank you famalam :D
