I'm stealing his wife's post (Dana) from facebook. I know many folks here know Karl. Hes going through a bit of a rough time health wise and it seems they cant nail down whats going on with him. I'm sending up prayers for my good friend. Please keep him in yours.....</p>

He is having severe, constant pain all through out his body. He has swollen areas on chest (not his heart,thankfully), back, and legs are so weak he can't walk more than a few steps...He has gotten progressively worse the last 2 months. Ple<span class="text_exposed_show" style="display: inline">ase pray we can find out what is compromising his immune system. We have been to many doctor visits, blood tests,etc. I just pray we can find out quickly if it is an autoimmune disease or whatever. He has NEVER been this sick, weak, CONSTANT pain, and unable to work a full day for the past 2 weeks.
His C-reactive protein is over 10 and should be less than .8....if any of you know or have any info that might be beneficial please let me know. I have been studying the internet, trying to search every symptom,etc. I am hoping to get his gut health better, since I am just learning that 70% of our immune system is controlled by our gut.
Again, those of you who know Karlwe are asking for prayers.Thank you and I pray all of you out there that you may have good health, and NO matter what we all are enduring, that we walk in His grace, wisdom, and try to have a still, peaceful heart</span></span></div></div></div></div>
 
Re: Prayers are needed for Flip1up (Karl Arnold)

Prayers sent my friend. Have they ruled out Lymes disease,
and Rocky Mtn Spotted fever? Ticks have been prevalent for over3 weeks.

Have they done tests for Alcohol poisoning? He does enjoy his beer. MS is another one. We all loved Flipper and miss his smiles and laughs. Sorry to hear about this, our prayers and thought are with him. Jmax

Flip is a good friend of several of us on here. That was not a joke. He does enjoy his beer. Anyone who knows him knows that. It would not be a bad thing to look into. Knowing him I would check that out, leave no stone unturned. I know it can affect your kidneys and your liver. Alcohol can also eat away at your stomach lining. I am no doctor but it would be worth looking at. Flip is a great guy. He was one of the first guys on here a good while back and was a regular with the CFF tournament, many of us including me fished with him. He had to move due to his job, he was/is missed. emoAngel Jmax

I know Flip too...fished one of the first CFF tx with him. He is a great guy
I still think what you said was...... at a bare minimum ...in poor taste.

If you read what she writes it does say, "if any of you know or have any info that might be beneficial please let me know." It was not meant in poor taste, it was meant from the heart and I hope they have looked into that possibility. He sounds very bad off and it is worth looking into. I hope they have explored that area.
 
Re: Prayers are needed for Flip1up (Karl Arnold)

I really have missed him since he moved off. He is one of the funniest people to hang out with, and I wish em the best.
 
Re: Prayers are needed for Flip1up (Karl Arnold)

Lord knows Karl and I did A LOT of fishing together. Probably one of the best friends I've had.(god knows thats a hard one to accomplish. LOL) I talked to him on the phone this morning. He isn't sounding too good at all. 2 months now with this pain and is having a hard time getting into the right doctors.

He said to tell you all hello and THANK YOU! Keep him in your thoughts and prayers. Dana will keep me updated through Facebook and I'll post here.
 
Re: Prayers are needed for Flip1up (Karl Arnold)

Sorry to hear that, Karl was one of the first CFFrs I met back in the good old days, a great guy and fun as hell to be around. Positive thoughts your way Flip1up
 
Re: Prayers are needed for Flip1up (Karl Arnold)
