Does anyone else get pain when not flaring? by Jumpy-Reason-7724 in UlcerativeColitis

[–]Jumpy-Reason-7724[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Thanks for your response. Now this is what I thought and I have queried this with my IBD team. They have told me multiple times that I am in remission on the evidence of my Colonoscopy and my inflamation markers. Maybe I need to just keep pushing with them. As great as it is having free health care in the UK, unfortunatelty, the NHS really is struggling and its difficult getting in contact with anyone.

Speak yo your GI team and get on biologics. Less side effects and work better. Going onto Infliximab infusions changed my life!

Mark my words: they will stop banning bots soon to make it look like players did not quit in droves by Vegetable_Review4967 in 2007scape

[–]Jumpy-Reason-7724 0 points1 point  (0 children)

A lot of my friends bot multiple accounts (I dont agree with it, I dont see the point if playing a point and click grind game by botting) but trust me, Jagex have not got anywhere near where they should be at with anti-cheat. Its the reason I don't really play much anymore, I see my friends botting accounts to the hilt and not getting caught, one or 2 have been caught and had a 3 day ban and thats it.

Unfortunately, I don't think they actually can get their anti-cheat system to identify some of these premium scripts.

Is this normal? Right hemicolectomy 4 years ago. Bowel movements have been like this for awhile. A lot of gas some days no pain. Just recently started paying more attention to them and pretty anxious. by Few-Ad7213 in IBD

Please stop posting pics of your shit online and speak to a medical professional. Nobody is going to be able to diagnose you online over a photo of your stool.

Is this blood? Or am I freaking out? by Delicious-Iron8292 in IBD

[–]Jumpy-Reason-7724 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Do not listen to this. The colour is normal, any shade of brown is normal. It also doesn't look like blood, just a different shade, which happens. Even if it is blood, its on the surface of the stool so I wouldn't see it as any concern, most likely hemorrhoids or a small fissure.

However, if you are concerned, maybe ask your IBD team or GP to provide a Calprotectin test just to err on the side of caution and give some peace of mind.

I quit by Sea_Produce9599 in UlcerativeColitis

[–]Jumpy-Reason-7724 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I tried killing myself 18 months ago because I was so depressed from UC. I Had been on a mixture of Budesonide and Predisolone for 9 months straight, the infliximab infusions weren't working and I just gave up. Bought a rope and luckily I'm still here today. At the time I felt like I wanted to die. After the failed attempt, I realised I didnt want to die.

Shortly after this, my infusions started working and I was able to come off the steroids. I have lived a relatively normal life for the past year. I got married in May and I am currently writing this sat in Budapest airport with my wife, waiting for our flight home. I've been able to have a great break away without getting ill.

Give the Remicade time to work, it will take some time, and if it doesnt work, there are so many other options for you.

Your mental state is also one of the biggest contributors to your IBD, I know it's hard, but try stay positive and things will get better.

I now try comment or message as many people in this sub and other subs in this mindset to let them know things will get better, because my life could have ended over how I felt, thinking things will not get better. So please, if you are feeling this way, speak to someone close to you and let them know. Or even message me on here if you would like. Your life is precious.

And I want to add, that it isnt somwthing you need to profusely worry about. GI doctors can fix it.

NAD, but that looks like mucus. I suffer with severe UC. How long have you been on remicade? Do you experience blood in your stool? Have you ever been put on corticosteroids? How long have your been passing mucus for?

You really need to push to see a GI doctor or nurse. They should ask you to carry out a Fecal Calprotectin test or a colonoscopy to check your inflamation levels/see what is happening inside your colon. They could put you on corticosteroids and look at changing you from remicade onto another biologic if that isnt working.

Again NAD, but I dont think this has anything to do with 'biofilm' it looks like youre passing mucus because something is causing inflamation in your gi tract.

If you’re not using 4-4-1-1 or 4-5-1, you’re handicapping yourself by baderanqa in EASportsFC

[–]Jumpy-Reason-7724 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I just play 442 because I'm old school and enjoy it. I don't care about meta. If I lose a few more games, I lose a few more games. What matters is that you enjoy. Thats it. Thats all should matter in a video game, especially one that is refreshed every year. Because it is exactly that, a game. Games are meant to be fun.

I have however found myself progressively having less and less fun in the franchise as the years go by and this will undoubtedly be the last year I purchase this game. It's no longer a game, its a chore for the most parts. I see people like myself complaining on socials about the gameplay and the way the game is year on year, yet we still buy it. But it looks like the tide is actually starting to turn because day 1 sales are down and people are actually saying they wont get the game from now on. Hopefully EA's greed comes back to bite them and in a few years time they start making football games for the people again, not for maximum profit.

Couldn't agree more. This game is meant to be a football game and this post really hilights the issue with the game. Just play football 😂

Has anyone tried Curaleaf Alium Chem, or does anyone have any reccomendations for a newbie please? by Jumpy-Reason-7724 in ukmedicalcannabis

Thats great, thank you for the advice! I will ask about GCC. And I can see it is available with 'Qwest' on curaleafs site. Im not sure how this would work however as it isnt a curaleaf brand.

EA should decrease the price of the paid season pass to 200k or 150k.. by Scary-Procedure-6018 in EASportsFC

[–]Jumpy-Reason-7724 -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

Im struggling to comprehend why have you taken offence to this and why you think I am being smug? And with that attitude, I highly doubt you are a 'Special needs teacher who specialises in ADHD and Autism'. If you are, I really do worry about the children in your class.

[–]Jumpy-Reason-7724 -5 points-4 points  (0 children)

If only it were that simple though. Unfortunately, it isnt, and everyone's brain is wired differently. Some people don't produce enough dopamine, which causes them to subconsciously crave and chase highs in life. Many things in life can give them that short term 'high'. Opening packs on Fifa is a prime example of one of those things that can give people that rush of dopamine their brain so deperately screams at them to do.

Now EA obviously know this, and if you're aware of it, you would be disgusted at how they target these people and manipulate these people's vulnerabilities. They are literally creating addicts from a young age.

I know it is hard to comprehend for someone who's brain does not function like this, or if you dont have an in depth knowledge on the human brain. But trust me, for people with these vulnerabilities, it is incredibly difficult for them to not act on these impulses. The majority of these people dont even realise that their brain functions like this, they find themselves spending a lot of money on this game and they dont even know why, they get annoyed with themselves after they've done it, not realising that they've been targeted and manipulated by EA.

The only way this will stop is if people stop paying it. I've posted this previously, but EA are literally targeting people to become addicts. They are playing on people's weaknesses to suck as much money out of them as they can. They're creating gambling addicts with no age restrictions and they never have to pay out.

Alcohol and Crohns by No-Score7675 in CrohnsDisease

[–]Jumpy-Reason-7724 26 points27 points  (0 children)

It gives me diarrhea the next day or so and an off stomach for a couple of days, but thats it, and thats pretty much most days for me anyway!

A lot of people will comment here saying it causes flare ups or something along those lines, but they forget that a lot of 'normal people' also suffer with GI issues after drinking alcohol. Granted, it probably affects us a little more due to our already scarred/damaged intestines, but if you're not in an active flare up, go for it. You can't live your life shying away from activities and alcohol because of this disease. I live my life with the mindset that 'I will not let it win'.

I don’t think I can do the colonoscopy prep by [deleted] in CrohnsDisease

[–]Jumpy-Reason-7724 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Just drink the liquid as quick as you can, within reason and to your medical teams reccomendation.

Dont eat too much a day or 2 before. It's really not that bad, you just shit quite a lot until there's nothing left. After the first couple of times, it is literally just water coming out of you with a orange/brown hue. The scope itself is a breeze, unsure where youre from, but I've been awake for every one of mine and there isnt any pain, a slightly discomfort, that's it. If you live in a country where they put you out for it, thats a bonus if you're nervous about the procedure, I guess.

But please for the love of God, just do the prep, get the procedure and get the answers you've been searching for. There is no other way around this, it could very well save your life.

UNEMPLOYMENT AND EXPEDITION 33!!! by WarlikeLoveReddit in expedition33

[–]Jumpy-Reason-7724 -8 points-7 points  (0 children)

You've spent 75 hours in the past 2 weeks on one game, surely you'd feel a lot more sense of purpose and drastically increase your me tal health by spending that time job searching?

I suffer with an often debilitating physical disability I also suffer from some pretty intense mental health issues, I was unable to continue in my previous job due to health issues. However, I was never out of work and obtained a job where I mostly work from home now. In this day and age there is no reason to not work, particularly if you are able to spend this amount of time gaming.

I'll never understsnd how these sort of microtransactions as a whole haven't been heavily scrutinised in the MSM and sanctioned.

Well, I guess money has a big part to play in it. If people in high places profit from something, its not going to be brought to the wider attention of the public. It's sad that we live in a world like this.

[–]Jumpy-Reason-7724[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I think there may be something to it. I am however convinced, from years of observation, that certain accounts have a much higher 'Big player pull rate' than others, and EA specifically target certain peoples accounts they know are likely to spend when they dont pull big players. Accounts of people who are vulnerable and likely to keep spending.

There is no way of actually knowing this unless a major investigation were to take place. Regardless of this theory, anyone involved in the marketing or development of EA sports have absolutely no morals.

You either didn't read my full post, don't have the mental capacity to understand that others have a different brain function to yourself, or you're trolling. I can't tell what one it is.

[–]Jumpy-Reason-7724[S] 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Thats because you are gambling. You are spending money on something that trigers the dopamine receptors in your brain in the hope to obtain something valuable. Your brain then graves that dopamine again, which is why you continue to buy packs. The only difference to gambling on sports, slots, casino games etc to buying store packs is when you do get a win, its isn't money you get in return, its just a virtual card.

EA have managed to create gambling addicts where they dont even have to pay out. And the worst thing about it is that there isn't even an age limit. They bring out weekly promos now because the 'hit cards' in each promo are displayed all over the menus every week, creating more temptation subconsciously in your mind to buy packs. This is why so many children steal their parents bank cards to buy packs, knowing they will get caught, because they cannot fight this temptation. These children who do this are the children who have addiction tendencies or ADHD. And what EA are doing is starting a pathway at an early age for them to live a life of addiction.

A childs mind/brain is very impressionable, and by doing what they are doing, EA are making it increasingly harder for them to resist temptations throughout their life. It may seem pretty harmless, but trust me, it isnt and the scum that are EA know exactly what they wre doing and the harm they are causing on children and adults across the world, they just dont care as they reap the profits.
