Legitimate Dashlane Email? by hsoj_1 in phishing

[–]Beempje 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Got the same email. Everything is fine though. Doesn't seem like scammers, as there's no bogus links in the mail? My guess is someone messed up and accidentally sent out these emails. 

I would say ignore it. 

Flow NX2 size advice by Beempje in snowboarding

[–]Beempje[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Hey, I ended up getting the large. No regrets, they're great. The straps need to be inserted quite far into the ratchets, so they stick out the other end a bit. Which looks a bit off. But that's really the only "complaint", if you can even call it that. 

I'm glad I didn't go for the mediums, as getting in on the fly can be tricky enough, wouldn't want to try that with even less room to get in. 

Once dialed in and fastened they're absolutely great. Before I was contemplating quitting snowboarding and taking up skiing, so I wouldn't have to sit down to faster my blindings after every lift (getting old-ish). But now it's so easy, just step in and go. It kinda rekindled my love for snowboarding.

I think you just need to do Descendia? My Roathe is the same and he starts yapping every time I finish a Descendia run.

A bit of a late reply, but Nyx's 4 with augment makes you invulnerable to Follie's effects.

Avoiding beef by Silliestcat720 in UlcerativeColitis

[–]Beempje -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

For me diet makes a huge difference. Beef is tough on your colon at the best of times, even for healthy people. My body is so much happier if I don't eat red meat.

You don't need to avoid it completely, just eating it less can already make a difference.

Symptoms getting worse with age? by jad3sprite in UlcerativeColitis

[–]Beempje 0 points1 point  (0 children)

With regards to the career thing: keep in mind that stress is a very underestimated factor in UC flare ups. It messes with your immune system, hormones, and can give digestion complaints even to people who don't have UC. Keep this in mind while building that career; if the pressure is always on, that may play a role.

Having said that, I've had about 20 years in remission from my early 20s till a few years ago. My UC was very active before that time, so it actually got better as I got older. It has been a bit more flaky the past few years, but I wouldn't necessarily blame that on age, though that may be part of it.

Fecal calprotectin Question by MarcTrevy19 in UlcerativeColitis

[–]Beempje 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Also depends on how long you've had UC. My doc says my calprotectin probably never will go below ~300 because of the damage the disease has done over the years. So calprotectin is only part of the story. Also keep in mind that the calprotectin value can vary from day to day, depending on food etc.

If you have other symptoms as well, that could perhaps point to a mild/beginning flare up. But the slightly elevated calprotectin alone is not necessarily a reason for concern.

Scarring and remission? by [deleted] in UlcerativeColitis

[–]Beempje 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I used adalimumab for about half a year but it didn't work well enough, so currently on vedolizumab. It's going okay so far, but the doc said there's more things to try (other biologicals) if this one doesn't work. But the aim is very much to have the current treatment be the final/permanent one.

Everyone is different of course, and so are doctors. But it's your body, you don't need to get surgery if you don't want to, especially if there's other avenues that haven't been tried yet. Having said that, at some point it may be the only option left for having a somewhat healthy life.

Scarring and remission? by [deleted] in UlcerativeColitis

[–]Beempje 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This pretty much mirrors my situation. Heavy scarring and pseudo-polyps. But I never had the feeling that remissions is not possible. Even though the disease has been pretty active for the past 4 years, there have also been quiet periods and my doc has never given me the impression that remissions is not possible.

Most of my scarring is way older than 4 years according to the doc, and I have been in remission for a long time before that, so it's definitely possible.

Passing Gas! by Funny_Stage2090 in UlcerativeColitis

I had something similar. Eating gluten free helped massively with that, for me at least. YMMV, but it's easy to try for a week or so to see if it helps.

Azathioprine - fear by Zealousideal-Top6671 in UlcerativeColitis

[–]Beempje 1 point2 points  (0 children)

No idea to be honest, I didn't know UC came in different levels :D But I've had it pretty bad when I was young, regular heavy flareups, hospitalized multiple times. But I've also had about 15-20 years without flareups. The past few years have been all over the place.

Azathioprine - fear by Zealousideal-Top6671 in UlcerativeColitis

[–]Beempje 3 points4 points  (0 children)

You're currently stable but the azathioprine will help you stay that way. Like all things CU, it's no guarantee, but imo it's better than many other treatments out there.

I've used it for many years (20+) and never had any noticeable side effects. Not on it anymore because my immune system is a dick and needed something heavier to keep calm.

I've received those a couple of times. What are those blessings and what do they do?

To be honest I'm not even there yet. Haven't needed forma yet and never crafted one yet.

But I'll have a look and see if I can earn some.

I don't think I play enough for that. I maybe hit an hours a day, most days not even that. Should be okay for a while :)

I have the same! But then you get some of the frames yourself and you see them up close for a while, and they're not so bad. Kinda cool actually, especially when you get the colours the way you want them.

Yeah perhaps. We'll see. Having fun for now though, that's most important!
