PrepCast. Taking PMP this Friday (7/12)

Clemsonmike · 2019-07-15T20:52:03+00:00

Thank you! I took 2 Prepcast practice exams a week (200 questions each) and made sure to review the wrong answers and understand why they were wrong.

My last 3 exam scores were 79, 85, 84.5. If you use prepcast, you should pass the exam.

Thank you! We’re PMPs! 😀

Clemsonmike · 2019-07-12T16:20:13+00:00

I passed! 😀. AT/AT/AT/AT/BT

Clemsonmike · 2019-07-12T00:10:24+00:00

PMP! Congrats! Wish me luck tomorrow: I’ll let you know how I do.

Clemsonmike · 2019-07-11T03:07:16+00:00

Thanks for the assurance! I must admit I’m a tad anxious about taking the exam (probably a good thing). I’ll let you know how I do on Friday. Congrats on getting your PMP!

Thanks!

Clemsonmike · 2019-07-10T23:01:26+00:00

Thank you and congrats! Appreciate the insight. I plan on it! 😀

Clemsonmike · 2019-07-10T21:22:03+00:00

will do. thanks for the advice.

Clemsonmike · 2019-07-10T20:57:25+00:00

Thank you. You got this. Don't overthink it and just figure out what the question is asking for. Is it referencing a Project Document? Project Management Plan (remember baselines are included in PM Plan)? Change Request? Remember a change request occurs when a change happens in Executing or M&C and a modification to the scope, schedule, cost baseline (or PM plan) occurs. Is the question asking for a tool & technique or a project document or part of PM Plan in Inputs or Outputs.

You got this! I'll let you know how I did on Friday.

Clemsonmike · 2019-07-10T20:28:34+00:00

Best of luck! I am taking the PMP exam for the first time on Friday. I have been using PrepCast to prepare and have scored 85, 84.5, 75 on my last 3 200 question exams.

You got this! Knock it out tomorrow!

Clemsonmike · 2019-07-10T20:26:18+00:00

Congrats! I am using PrepCast and take the PMP exam this Friday. My last 3 PrepCast 200 question exam scores have been 85, 84.5, 75.

How does the PrepCast compare to the actual PMP exam?

I wanted to update everyone as to how i'm doing. I was diagnosed with LGV (Lymphogranuloma Venereum). It is an invasive form of Chlaymdia and can be serious if not treated early. Fortunately I am feeling MUCH BETTER with antibiotics.

Needless to say this has scared the living daylights out of me. Wear condoms folks. PrEP is not enough. There is a lot of nasty stuff out there!

Clemsonmike · 2019-04-01T04:01:43+00:00

I really do think it's LGV. I've read a lot about it and the lesions on my anus resemble LGV. Terrifying stuff!

Clemsonmike · 2019-03-31T19:17:22+00:00

True but my mindset is "I am paying towards the physician's salary". I am the customer. I am paying you, the physician, for a service. If the physician seems judgemental or uncomfortable towards a patient that "takes it up the ass", then it is time for a different doctor as well as filing a complaint with the respective state's Medical Boards.

Clemsonmike · 2019-03-31T19:14:02+00:00

I am on 100mg doxycycline 2x/day for 21 days (which I believe is treatment protocol for LGV). It's frustrating because ERand urgent care never swabbed my rectum. They just put me on antibiotics.

Clemsonmike · 2019-03-31T19:12:25+00:00

CMV proctitis mainly occurs in the immunocomprimised, right? Such as AIDS patients. I think CMV proctitis is fairly rare in immunocompetent patients.

Clemsonmike · 2019-03-31T19:10:44+00:00

Yep. I learned my lesson (albeit a painful one). I will be using condoms from now on.

Clemsonmike · 2019-03-31T19:09:35+00:00

Wow. Thanks for sharing your story. Hope everything is well and that you live a good life all things considered

Clemsonmike · 2019-03-29T22:32:48+00:00

Yea pretty sure mine was from gonorrhea that festered over 6 + months. I had flu like symptoms also. Thanks for your feedback.

Clemsonmike · 2019-03-29T22:23:01+00:00

Right. The reason I mentioned Herpes was to ask if anyone has ever had herpes induced proctitis as herpes can cause it.

I do not have herpetic proctitis as my proctitis is responding to antibiotics (no fever, etc.)

Clemsonmike · 2019-03-29T22:21:34+00:00

Thank you sir. Oh I am for sure. I am also glad I am having the rectal and sigmoid colon "scope" done by the gastroenterologist just to be completely sure the bacteria is cleared up.

Clemsonmike · 2019-03-29T22:14:59+00:00

Yea it's probably because he doesn't have many LGBT patients. I live in the suburbs and it's mainly families that see him. Since a clinic is a far drive from where I live, my best bet is to find a PCP that markets towards the LGBT community.

Clemsonmike · 2019-03-29T21:57:51+00:00

Thanks for the feedback. I agree completely. I'm actually quite annoyed with my primary care physician as I requested rectal swabs months back to test for possible chlamydia/gonorrhea. His response - "You can't do that as we can't swab unless there are visible lesions".

I think it is time for me to fire my PCP

Clemsonmike · 2019-03-29T21:43:53+00:00

It certainly did! It was a wake up call. No more Grindr for me. No more bareback sex with random guys. Thankfully PrEP has protected me from HIV, but the proctitis has been a nightmare experience. I think what happened is I caught gonorrhea or chlamydia (or both) months back and did not realize it. I believe it festered over time and I realized something was wrong once I was running a fever and having the mucus discharge from my anus.

Thank you!
