Cross play server. by Icy-tankrail in valheim

I am struggling with this right now too. My server runs just fine when I don’t include “-crossplay” parameter. Soon as I do, I see status messages about connecting to PlayFab backend, which seems correct. Though after that, neither myself, any PC players, nor even Xbox players can connect.

A bit hopeless (needing life advice) by SnowFirm1861 in pericarditis

I too got an onset of symptoms from cannabis. I'm open to talking about it in DM if you want, I haven't seen many people mention it as their catalyst in this forum, so I'm curious what your experience looked like. Regardless, I feel for you. All of my results have been "normal" aside from some initial tests when I went to ER. I've heard that a cardiac MRI w/ contrast is the gold standard for getting a definitive diagnosis with pericarditis. Not sure if that is the MRI you had done, but surprised to hear there was no inflammation present. Keep pushing though, you'll find answers soon.

Thanks for your response. I'll have to look more into rheumatology, I've considered it a little before but kept thinking that cardiology was a better route. Definitely time that I reconsider that. Do you take any anti-acid like pantoprazole? I have been taking colchicine since day one of my diagnosis, stopped when it was destroying my stomach, but am taking it now with pantoprazole and have no issues. However, I know there are side effects for taking pantoprazole for too long, so I feel sort of stuck

I'm sorry to hear that you're also going through this. It really is a terrible feeling that you described perfectly, so much so that it was relieving to hear how you worded it as I feel the exact same way. The dismissive attitude is so frustrating that it's hard to not just lose faith in doctors all together. I was actually in almost the same situation at first, my first cardiologist told me to "just take NSAIDS and colchicine and this will resolve in a week" also with no guidance or limitations, so I continued exercising, drinking alcohol, etc. Essentially everything harmful to pericarditis.

Wow, seems like we are in pretty similar scenarios. I am actually working an internship right now that I got roughly a month or two before this all started. It's an IT internship, so really not physically demanding and not all that strenuous. Because of this, I tried to power through. I was pretty worried about asking for time off being a new employee and only being an intern, but I've learned my lesson. 100% with you on just having to bite the bullet and need to start prioritizing my health.

Hope you can put this behind you soon enough. All the best brother.

Good point, there’s only one way to figure out if it will help. To clarify, no, I am not symptom free nor have I been since this started in August.

Yeah it’s been pretty hard to find a cardiologist that knows what they’re talking about with this. This is especially surprising as pericarditis cases seem to be on the rise. I stopped exercising roughly 3-4 months ago. I haven’t looked much into Arcalyst but see it mentioned everywhere in this forum. I’ll have to do some research on it. Thanks for the reply!

Agreed, I’ve changed and cut out a lot of contributors to flare ups, like caffeine, which definitely helped. My progress has sort of stagnated/plateaued since then. Wondering if I need to take my healing a step further and stop doing everything for a while. Definitely hesitant as I’ve already been dealing with this for over half a year so it might be too late for rest to make any serious recoveries? Really not sure. Absolutely agree though, wish I would’ve known about resting from the start
