\"\"<\/a>We just wanted to let you all know of a little way that God has been blessing us recently. \u00a0Some of you may know (we never told everyone formally at any one point) that Joel has suffered from migraines for quite a long time. \u00a0They actually started at the age of 16 but had become a daily occurrence 4 or 5 years ago. \u00a0For the most part, it hasn’t been a major difficulty because Excedrine has been able to treat it pretty much regularly. \u00a0It was only about once a month that a migraine would actually cause difficulties in going about his activities for the day.<\/p>\n

In coming back from Ecuador to be in the States, Joel wanted to get this looked into because everyday Excedrine use for the rest of his life was not something he was looking forward to as they have a high amount of caffeine which causes other problems. \u00a0So, after returning, he got a physical from a family physician and got the doctor’s recommendation to see a neurologist. \u00a0The neurologist recommended a head MRI to make sure there wasn’t anything serious that was causing the headaches (which there wasn’t-Praise the Lord!). \u00a0Based off this result, the doctor began a couple of different treatments to deal with the headaches as well as getting off the Excedrine dependency. \u00a0We found out that a lot of his headaches were more than likely being caused by a “rebound effect” from the Excedrine use.<\/p>\n

At this point, Joel is doing great! \u00a0He is off the medications that neurologist had been using as well as he has not been needing to take Excedrine on a regular basis – he’s taking it about once per week at this point. \u00a0His head doesn’t feel perfect but not having migraine-level headaches on a daily basis is a great start! \u00a0This has been a long standing prayer request that we have had and for those who have known have been praying for him and his headaches. \u00a0Thank you for your prayers and all we can say is that is great to know a good and mighty God! \u00a0What a mighty God we serve!!!<\/p>\n
