    she has seen blood in her urine and she has been having very low blood pressure!

    Dear Heavenly and Loving Father, we pray that You will comfort and calm my dear sister at this time. We pray that You will guide the doctor who is on duty
    at this time in the ER to find the cause and be able to help her. Thanking You for hearing our prayers and for the gift of faith that comes from You, in the name of Jesus we pray. AMEN

    I pray for the doctors to find the cause that it be something benign and fixable. And I pray for her deliverance from this affliction for the sake of God's glory.

    I just got a phone call from my sister!!
    Praise the Lord, it was only a urinal infection!
    The doctor gave her some medication and told her that you blood pressure was perfect!
    Oh by the way, the doctor told her to drink plenty of water.
    My sister and I drink a lot of water!

    Thank you for your prayers!
    God has heard and answered prayer!!

    Praise God that it was something as simple as a urinary tract infection. A bad infection can definitely make you feel lightheaded and stuff - if that's what made her think her blood pressure was low. I've had MANY UTIs in my life and they are not fun - but cured quickly with antibiotics. Make sure she gets some good probiotics in her and tell her that while everyone will tell her to drink cranberry juice, she needs to be sure it's 100% juice and not the juice cocktail. She can also get cranberry capsules to help. But best of all IS to drink plenty of fluids, make sure when she urinates that she empties fully, that she wipes from front to back and if she is sexually active, to make sure she pees afterwards. Those are the four biggies of UTIs.

    This needs to be on a billboard for every woman in America to see! I could not agree more wholeheartedly with Ann if I wanted to. :thumbs:

    The cranberry juice is a miracle juice, in my opinion.

    And praise the Lord, j., that this was something benign and fixable.
