I would appreciate it if you could spare a few prayers for me. I am still trying to sort out food allergy/sensitivity issues and whether or not any autoimmune diseases are involved. I have a doctor's appointment on Tuesday and am hoping for some answers, as for some reason my immune system has gone into overdrive for the past couple of weeks. Tonight, the weirdest thing, I also discovered that my finger is infected, and I wasn't even aware I had any cuts. So I guess I will be making a trip to urgent care this weekend.
Anyway, if you would, please pray that I can find a resolution to these problems (even a firm diagnosis would be a step in the right direction!)... and (I feel silly asking for this, but it's just that "one more thing" and on a birthday/Father's Day weekend) that I can get my finger taken care of?
Thank you!
UPDATE 7/21/14:
Well, I was able to treat my infected finger without antibiotics, but my immune system has continued to be crazy and I don't know why. I FINALLY found out today that it is NOT Hashimoto's, which is a relief and another piece of the puzzle out of the way. But my hormone levels are all low. Please pray for more answers and that I can figure out how to improve with diet and exercise. I already feel like I am working really hard with my diet... more restrictions are just sort of overwhelming right now.

I'm glad to read that Hashimoto's has been ruled out!
Prayers continue...

Dear Angela,
I am praying for you. Something similar happened to me after I had baby #5. My immune system went crazy. No real advice - lots of prayers.
