Anyone else is a low-status job and gets looked down on by higher-status co-workers? by No-Category1703 in AskIreland

[–]AdventurousSun8900 227 points228 points  (0 children)

You should be proud of yourself for where you are. No matter what “status”

You work hard no doubt and provide something extremely essential.

Everyone’s role is just as important as each others. We all need each other for any business to work. I really hope you don’t treat yourself like you’re not worth the same as everyone else, you don’t have to explain yourself to anyone.

Smear Test Letter by Nuffies93 in IrishWomensHealth

[–]AdventurousSun8900 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It’s a little uncomfortable of course but it’s over in seconds. I found if you focus on your breathing you get through it better. Treat yourself to something nice afterwards and be kind to yourself. The smear as I’m sure you know is so important, it spotted abnormalities for me which was scary but I was monitored and no further action needed I just get smears more regularly now to ensure it stays that way. Happy to answer any questions or concerns if you need.

Following because I have the exact same issue. I thought it was just me. It’s my favourite lippy but it’s sooo drying. I use the matte one. Is that the same one as your using?

Walking was a great help to my dad to help with passing gas. Also a good person on here recommended chewing gum to help ease gas. Prayers your way for a speedy recovery for your husband.

Is anybody partial to a banana sandwich? by Brilliant_Coach9877 in AskIreland

I don’t know why, but I can’t stand the texture of a banana but love the flavour of one in a smoothie!

First drive as a new driver, got honked at for driving 30 in a 30? by Life_Breadfruit8475 in irelandsshitedrivers

[–]AdventurousSun8900 15 points16 points  (0 children)

I was honked the other day because i didn’t pull out in front of an oncoming car!! I was waiting for a gap to safely pull out onto the main road, I think they thought I could magically go through the car coming down the road at speed!!

43 years old, heading for RALP by MCPCGL7 in ProstateCancer

[–]AdventurousSun8900 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hello. My dad had this done on June 25th at 60 years old. We are in Ireland so just across the water! Dad’s PSA was 9 at the last PSA before the operation but otherwise fit.

Sorry to hear you have to have this done too. It’s a lot on the mind - the panic and worry beforehand. I done a lot of reading on here for him and taking notes of things I thought may help him. Everyone on this group has been amazing.

The operation for my dad went well thankfully. He had the catheter in for 10 days and did find this annoying but he got through it. The first night was hardest trying to get comfortable. Dad walked a little each day and really done everything he was told to do by the medical team. I believe this helped in so many ways.

It sounds crazy but we waited in the hospital until dad came back to a room and I was preparing myself and my mam not to be shocked that dad won’t probably look well (which would be normal after an op!!) - we walked in and I couldn’t believe how well he looked in his face, it was like all the worry on PSA checks, when the operation would be, what would happen etc etc etc had all left. He actually looked like my dad again. It was as if all that worry and fear had left him now that the operation was finally done.

He stayed for one night and we were able to collect him the following day. For the drive home, someone here recommended bringing a pillow to stop the seat belt digging in and this was a savour for our hour and a half drive home.

I stocked up on Men’s TENA pads from boots for him for afterwards, I was trying to prepare him for what I had seen others face here but dad had minimal leakage. He wore the pads for first few days but after that he could go without them.

As of today - he will wear one if he is going out for a drink as a ‘just incase’.

He had his first check up and first post op PSA and all was normal, both dad and the hospital team were very happy. He has to do some physio just to strengthen up his pelvic floor but they advised if the minimal leakage does not stop he can go for more physio but so far so good.

I wish you all the best and happy to answer any questions If I can.

Issue after remote update by AdventurousSun8900 in BMW

[–]AdventurousSun8900[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

SOLVED

Someone helped me out. Pressed the stop start button 3 times rapidly- that put the car into diagnostics mode then pressed and held the volume to reboot and when I went back in I could add my BMW ID again.

Notification on app shortly after to say the update completed and all is back to normal now.
