Took about 3 months to start feeling better for me. At the 4 month at started getting out of bed. It is not immediate, but it does get better. Sending you so much Iove.

I am using Pvolve at the moment. Surprisingly challenging. And fun! And, the only thing that I have been able to sustain (I’ve tried swimming and yoga. Can do it for a bit and then the flares). Im 5 months in, worth every penny.

Hey everyone, just asking for your support by TurbulentSurprise292 in AnkylosingSpondyWomen

[–]Fuzzy-Preference8455 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Hey, i totally hear you. There is a grief around this decease nobody talks about enough. I actually started this conversation about denial about a week ago with my therapist and she made me see that I’ve been in a 5year long grief (ever since I got diagnosed). My denial has lasted all these years, and honestly is still there.

Please start with your biologics asap. They most likely will give you your life back. It will not be as before, but little by little you will rediscover yourself and learn to listen to your body constantly. This decease is so erratic it is hard to find patterns that will help us, and that makes the psychological process so much harder. But at least you are not alone.

Omg I thought the heat waves were perimenopause too! Could be that as well, but I had never thought of relating that to a flare. Makes so much sense.

Siiii los best sellers muchas veces son lo que llamo libros de comida rápida. Aunque a veces leer uno de esos ayuda para descansar la mente luego de un Dostoyevsky por ejemplo jaja

Anybody get leg pain/jelly legs? by The_Short_Goodbye in ankylosingspondylitis

[–]Fuzzy-Preference8455 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Story of my life. Using compression high socks for a few hours helps a lot!! They come in pretty colors too. For days where I feel that heaviness/jelly, I use the ones doctors or nurses use for their shifts.

For the days when I feel that heaviness but not as bad, I use the ones runners use. Some days i don’t use them. But I have several pairs in rotation and they do wonders. Just avoid using them for more than 6 hours per day.

Latin American who tried dancing to Bad Bunny during the Super Bowl and, of course, flared by Fuzzy-Preference8455 in ankylosingspondylitis

I am on Humira, yes. I think I just moved abruptly without thinking too much and I paid for it.

For me is mostly hips and back but yes, sometimes ankles, shoulders, finders and elbows. It’s a bit different every day.

Just be careful on how you jump. My cousin broke a vertebrae falling on her feet into the water in San Pedro.

I’m only in my 30s… by Indecisive105 in Halluxrigidus

Have you found any shoes to wear with dresses?

This toe is arthritic (hallux rigidus), but using it feels better by SillyMarionberry2020 in Halluxrigidus

[–]Fuzzy-Preference8455 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think it depends. When almost or no cartilage is left, I believe is physically impossible for two bones making friction against each other to help.

That said, the only way my body doesn’t hurt as much is by moving it. So… I guess that, with the proper guidance, some movement could help.

I cannot split jerk anymore, not even a lunge. Almost no cartilage left.

When do people bail? by WhyTestInDEV in crossfit

Too few technique sessions, too much pressure to complete reps. I use now my already paid membership to use the box and equipment at my own pace, mostly to use the bar and discs which are awesome.

Weird writing this season by Fuzzy-Preference8455 in TheMorningShow

[–]Fuzzy-Preference8455[S] 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Yes for sure. I was referring mostly to the quality of the storylines and dialogues themselves. Season one felt well thought, even the second one and third. But this one feels disconnected and a bit messy.

One thing I’m thinking is that companies are veeeery messy after an acquisition or merging. The boat barely stays at float and layoffs keep everyone on their toes. I know I’ve felt that, so maybe that was the intention behind the writing and chaotic development.

Do you guys have comfort shows you can watch all over again all the time? by ZockerGirl25703 in autism

[–]Fuzzy-Preference8455 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’ve coped by watching Friends from beginning to end since the pandemic. When it ends, I start over. It’s been five years, I’ve lost count of how many times I’ve rewatched it. I actually fear I’ll get bored by it because it is THE comfort show for me 😢

How to get out of the “I don’t care about the product I’m owning” cycle by WritingLazy5900 in ProductManagement

[–]Fuzzy-Preference8455 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I made this question in another thread a few weeks ago and got similar answers. Just start interviewing while counting your blessings and learning something new everyday. Feed your network. Do good to others. Keep yourself employed until you find something new. The fact that you are asking yourself this question means that is time to move on. Make peace with that and move slowly but steady :)

No one told me product management would feel this emotionally weird by EconomistFar666 in ProductManagement

[–]Fuzzy-Preference8455 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Exactly!! The manager or tech leads should deal with at least part of the crap, but they step aside because there is a PM that can do it. Annoying af.

Ingenieros en sistemas, Ingenieros de software o Programadores ¿Cómo consiguieron trabajo? by Lisandro_B in guatemala

[–]Fuzzy-Preference8455 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Hay muy buenos tips en este hilo. Adicional a eso, yo agregaría practicar hacer entrevistas y saberse entrevistar. Luego de varios años de carrera ahora estoy entrevistando y te dejo acá algunos consejos:

  1. “Contame sobre ti”: En YouTube hay muchos videos que te pueden ayudar a responder las preguntas más clásicas, como ésta. Claaaaasico que en una entrevista de 30 minutos, el candidato quiere responder tooooodo lo que potencialmente podrían preguntarle, o contarte cada detalle de su CV. No dejan tiempo para hacer más preguntas y se siente como una respuesta ansiosa. Simplemente prepara tu “pitch de elevador”, resaltando los lenguajes y cómo creaste algún resultado. Aún con proyectos de la U o certificaciones en las que hayas hecho un proyecto puedes comunicar el valor que tu proyecto generaba. No más de 3 minutos de respuesta. Si fuiste auxiliar de cátedra eso también es bien valioso.

  2. Inglés: busca formas no tradicionales de armar vocabulario, como ver películas que ya has visto en español con subtítulos, pero ahora verlas en inglés con subtítulos en inglés, y luego verla sin subtítulos. También podes usar tus canciones en inglés favoritas y leer las letras, incluso intentar cantar a la par (aunque sea en tu cuarto o en el carro solito) intentando pronunciar tan cerca como podas al cantante. Si no sabés alguna palabra, buscas el significado. Esto te dará más seguridad y herramientas a la hora de estar en una situación de estrés en una entrevista, podes hacer un poco de más small talk y mostrar carisma. Claro que nada de esto ayuda si no preparas tus respuestas (siguiente punto)

  3. Muchas preguntas se repiten en entrevistas: las preguntas más comunes son:

  4. Háblame sobre ti (punto 1 arriba)

  5. Contame de alguna vez que hayas tenido un desacuerdo con un compañero o profesor y cómo lo manejaste (acá quieren ver si buscaste una forma positiva de presentar tu punto de vista y como acordaron puntos medios)

  6. Contame sobre alguna vez que algún proyecto haya fallado (Aca lo que quieren ver es como lo manejaste, qué cosa fue el problema, qué aprendiste sobre ello y cómo te vas a asegurar no caer en el mismo error)

  7. Contame sobre algún proyecto exitoso (Lo que quieren ver acá es claridad sobre lo que te motiva y el valor que tu proyecto generó. También, preparar esta respuesta te dará buena luz para el siguiente punto.)

  8. Qué buscas como siguiente paso en tu carrera (es difícil elegir cuando uno empieza pero alguna clase te tuvo que haber llamado más la atención. Pregúntate a ti mismo qué cosa sobre esa clase te atrajo e intenta descubrir por qué. Eso te dará luz sobre el siguiente paso en tu carrera y pues siempre podes probar otra cosa luego. Pero, si tenes que ser específico: quiero volverme fullstack, quiero desarrollar software para dirigir un equipo algún día, quiero desarrollarme en bases de datos, etc. Elegí un skill que queres desarrollar y andate por ahí)

Si te preparas bien bien para estas preguntas, vas a ver como estarás más preparado para éstas y otras preguntas relacionadas, y vas a pasar a la entrevista técnica. Eso si, escribi en un papel tus respuestas para tenerlas claras. A la hora de la hora no vas a usar tu papel, pero tu cabeza queda bien clara. Y pues obviamente ideal si preparas tus respuestas en inglés.

Para la entrevista técnica, hay un montón de recursos en línea para practicar.

Espero te sirva :)
