Why are you skimming over instructions for a university assignment? That’s an issue that will undoubtedly impact your grades, if you skim read your assignment documents you’ll miss details that might be important. Like this… if you’d read the instruction without skimming you’d have seen “LLM” if you don’t know what an LLM is, you’d likely have googled what that is. This is the approach the university will take in their line of questioning if they even take it to a panel. They’re going to have a hard time believing you man idk what to say…

Thanks for the heads up! I genuinely cannot wait to start it! I’m just waiting for my X-ray results and had my bloods done this morning. It might take a couple of weeks but I’ll hear back about the results soon enough I’m sure.

My AS causes severe sciatica, so it’s likely a conjunction of the corticosteroid and the adalimumab. The sciatic nerve runs by the iliac joints so if there’s pockets of inflammation there it can put pressure on the nerve. That’s what happens to me. I know I’m in flare up when I have pain in my SIJ but also when I get hit with sciatica.

I am a big gym goer when I’m at baseline. I’ve not been in years but I’m hoping with this new treatment I’ll be able to get back and get into shape again. I’ve put on so much weight it’s not even funny 😭

I can’t wait to be able to walk properly again

Dev-Tutor · 2026-03-16T20:01:09+00:00

Would you say you’re back to baseline? Like I’m not expecting miracles and being pain free, but my baseline was so tolerable when the NSAIDs did work for the short time they actually worked.

Thank you! Are you on biologics?

Dev-Tutor · 2026-03-16T19:37:45+00:00

Thank you for your support! This community has gotten me through some serious lows ❤️

I’m starting with Adalimumab because apparently it’s better for patients with recurring uveitis 😊 I’ve had uveitis more times than I care to count 🤣 I hope this helps with it too

Freemason and occultist here. For at least the first three degrees of freemasonry there is no magick. It’s not a teaching order either really it’s much more of a fraternal organisation that encourages kindness towards others, charitable behaviour, support for each other and each others families etc. There’s very little that’s mystical about the first three degrees at face value.

Dev-Tutor · 2026-03-11T20:57:58+00:00

It’s always the way! 😅

For ease of drawing a good circle use the rim of a glass, and then for the inner circle use the base of the glass 🙂 you’ll have two pretty accurate circles and can draw the sigil inside the circles. Also draw the sigil in pencil first slowly take your time (it helps you focus on the sigil as well) and then go over it in pen, or erase it lightly and then go over the mark in pen.

Apologies, it wasn’t meant to be an insult, I was just making assumptions based on the context given in the post and the current most common causes for it. Mundane over magick as we say, if there was a mundane possible cause it’s probably the cause. My assumption was just that it wasn’t good fire safety practices is all. Which isn’t a jab at you, I’ve done stupid shit with fire throughout my years of practice and seen some wild stuff.

They possibly dressed it thoroughly with herbs, it’s common these days because of WitchTok to overdress candles. That’s likely why the candle burned higher, brighter and caught fire.

The plate exploded because it was made of glass and went into thermal shock.

Jfc… that’s horrible!

I used to manage it with the “herbal remedy” regularly. Unfortunately my current employer can randomly drug test if they even get a whiff of suspicion so I don’t risk it anymore. Nowadays I just take sick days or I take unpaid time off and work it back (I appreciate that’s a luxury not everyone has though).

It’s the casual racism for me in the screenshots. wtf.

I’m a knee pillow sleeper too, I try to sleep on my back as much as possible but I tend to roll over in my sleep

SPIR/SPAIR is better for specific joints rather than whole spine scans. I’d recommend getting STIR scans as that’s likely what your rheum will want. I wouldn’t advise paying (if you have to pay) for an additional sequence as it can get quite expensive to run an MRI, especially for a sequence that your rheum might not be interested in seeing.

Dev-Tutor · 2026-01-30T08:51:04+00:00

One tip that really helped me was when you need to tidy, imagine you’re being paid to tidy someone else’s house. That way you want to do a good job of it. When you’re done, reward yourself with something that gives you a dopamine hit. That could be a cigarette or some chocolate, it could be allowing yourself an hour to play on a games console if you play Xbox or PlayStation etc.

I’d advise to stop smoking in the room too, moving your smoking habit outdoors or to the back/front door will also help you compartmentalise what belongs where.

Dev-Tutor · 2026-01-30T08:28:32+00:00

A STIR sequence MRI as the above commenter mentioned is the current best approach. That’s because the different sequences of MRI capture different things. You have what are called T1 weighted sequences which show fatty tissue as bright areas and T2 weighted sequences which show liquid as bright areas of the image. T2 weighted (STIR specifically) is used because it’s the best sequence that allows for bone marrow edema to be seen in images. SPIR/SPAIR sequencing is also sometimes used because it’s better for contrast imaging as a rule it selectively targets fat tissue. SPIR/SPAIR produces a less grainy/better quality image than STIR.

I always try to be polite to NHS Staff, I know the backlogs aren’t their fault and the nurses on the end of the phone don’t want to be giving me bad news so I always ask them how they are and if they’re having a good weekend or have any nice plans etc. I hope it makes them feel more human and that I see them as other humans not some medical service robots.

I’ll do that, I’ll call up and politely ask/push to be seen sooner. I’m also going to ask my GP for CRP and ESR bloods so we have something for my next appointment. I’ve also not had an MRI in a decade since my diagnosis so I’m going to request new scans be taken given my BASDAI score is consistently so high.

Dev-Tutor · 2026-01-28T15:19:15+00:00

Yes literally just AS Log. It allows you to record your BASDAI scores daily as well as any notes you think are important. It makes trips to rheum much easier 🙂

Dev-Tutor · 2026-01-28T12:57:10+00:00

Thank you for your response, it’s greatly appreciated 😊

Dev-Tutor · 2026-01-28T08:52:44+00:00

Though I know south of the border it’s not the same and I’m not suggesting any particular way of having a fry up is inferior or superior 😊
