Could not lift arm due to calcium lump
I am pregnant with two weeks until my due date. After having experienced something that feels like a miracle, I would like to tell you about it. I have had incredible pain in my shoulder for a few weeks. During both the basic course in Shenxin Qigong some two weeks ago and the Hold Qi Up 2 course last weekend, my right arm looked like a crooked chicken wing since I could not lift or twist it, partly because of the pain but also because I just physically could not. Yesterday morning I woke up with my shoulder aching more than ever before. In the morning my doctor called me with the news that the reason for my problem is that I have a 1.8 cm large calcium lump in the shoulder that prevents the tendons from moving freely. She suggested that I would go for an MRI after my baby has been born, where they would also try to burst the lump with a needle.
The arm completely healed
Last night when I practised qigong, I thought it was unusually easy to lift up the arm to the height of the navel … and then on to the next level of the exercise. After doing one session of Hold Qi Up, I could simply conclude that the pain had disappeared completely! This morning when I went to the physiotherapist, to whom the doctor had referred me, I could only apologise for the time I wasted. I told her that I practise qigong, and that I think it could be the reason for my recovery. The therapist said that she definitely wants to attend a qigong course.
This feels incredible, and I am once again so happy to have found Zhineng Qigong!
