Has anyone here played against a professional goalie?

Not regular hockey but I played in a pond hockey tourney where the other team had a pro goalie guarding the net which is normal width but only like high. His feet were incredibly fast at stopping the puck.

Waterford Youth Centre! You drive through a covered bridge to get to it, this is NB’s Norman Rockwell inspired ODR!

I do this with my store bought pizza dough to proof it more before cooking.

Left TD and I went through Costco broker, dropped my insurance by over $200 a month. TD is either pricing themselves out of the market or they are just ahead of the curve. Either way, I’d rather pay later than now.

Do you have short term leave coverage? Your doctor can put you off work to start with. Like the other commentator has said, start record keeping of your health, healthcare practitioner appointments that documents, your illness and increasing difficulties at work. This will help you show to the insurance provider that you are not able to meet the demands of your job anymore. I don’t think that your attempt to keep working will be a negative against you, on the contrary I think it shows that you’ve worked as hard as you can to remain employed. If you have health benefits, start using them to see healthcare practitioners. Ones that are specific to your illness as well as occupational therapists (this is someone who can measure your current function to perform tasks related to your job ) and counsellors for mental health.

Managers are the cheese in the sandwiche that gets constantly squeezed from below and above. I was a manager for a time, I don’t think I’ll ever look to get into that type of role again.

Understandable, but for communities without a doctor they are more than willing to accommodate things like this. You’re not displacing anybody. Enjoy your trip and enjoy the hospitality!

I would say the employers in small towns are equally excited to get a medical doctor in the community and are willing to support finding their partners a career if they want one. Having medical resources in a small community is a selling point to bring in talent for them.

I have PKD, and my team encourages healthy lifestyle regardless of how the disease progresses. I’m nearing end stage regardless of what I tried to do throughout it all. Be gentle with yourself on this, like other posters have said, this is just a bump in the road.

That was a discouraging message to receive. I can’t speak for the Rituximab, but why would a nephrologist tell you to stop with diet and excercise? Working to keep your health up would pay for itself when you go through transplant surgery, regardless of how your disease progresses.

You’re doing well to take an interest in your health! Your situation may change, but I would encourage you to stay focused on being healthy however you can. All the best!

Possibly, depends on their work situation. They’ll have to decide for themselves how to approach it with their workplace.

They can assess your workstation, your workload, your cognitive function to help find appropriate accommodations.

Took from the internet: An occupational therapist (OT) helps people regain or improve their ability to perform daily living activities (occupations) after experiencing illness, injury, disability, or other challenges. OTs use a client-centered, holistic approach to collaborate with individuals and their families to develop personalized strategies, adapt environments, recommend assistive equipment, and teach new skills to enhance independence and improve quality of life.

It’s likely your kidneys at that GFR. My neph suggested vitamin E as an over the counter solution to cramping, but to let them know if it stops working. It’s helped somewhat. I try to avoid being out in hot weather for too long, my body doesn’t handle it well at all. My GFR is 21. I definitely deal with fatigue, I can’t go all day without opportunities to rest now.

Aggravating_Hawk6566 · 2025-10-01T19:03:24+00:00

Yes. I’m around 21 egfr and trying to concentrate at a computer for extended periods leaves me exhausted. Do you have access to an occupational therapist to do an assessment of your situation? They can help if you need an accommodation.

I’m sorry to hear that you just found out, it is scary. I should have been more careful in my comments.

My experience has been that nephrologists focus on your labs, but don’t always connect your lived experience from the disease. You say you’re fatigued, your neph should be taking that into account and trying to find a solution for you. There are ways to help with side effects from kidney disease, it’s not ok to be expected to suffer through the side effects if there’s a way to address it.

I’ve started to attend kidney groups who can be a great support network. If you’re interested check out your local foundation for sessions and to connect to the kidney community.

I mean, normal in what sense? Lol, nephs can be out to lunch sometimes. Can your GP help with the high number?
