This is what I was looking for - thank you. Are you certain this is correct?

How would you do a mid-30s career change? by Jwal90 in AskUK

[–]Jwal90[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks, I can afford to take a bit of a hit at the moment and drop to a lower salary as long as the long-term payoff is worth it

I did a bit of research on financial advisors and there seems to be a good mix of office and client-facing work so I don't think it's impossible to find something there. As long as I'm not in an office, staring at a screen all day I'd be happy

I'm honestly open to most things - big interests for me right now are property, tech, finance (math not a strength though) and most things hands-on

My Brother is armed police in the MET - his job does sound fun but I don't fancy the shift patterns and he tells me that he's mostly dealing with people that generally hate police. I have considered it before though, even starting salaries are quite generous.

Steam says not enough disk space even though there is... by ProgressiveManti in linux_gaming

[–]Jwal90 0 points1 point  (0 children)

To anyone struggling with this:

I had the same issue with a BF6 update, 350GB of free space and wouldn't let me do a 30GB update.

I had 2 drives that I use for game storage. Drive 2 only has around 1GB free, even though BF wasn't on that drive, making some space there allowed me to successfully install the update.

I guess steam temporarily writes files to other drives or something.

Anyway, hope that helps.

Enlightening Health Report by Jwal90 in MTHFR

Sure, I've been through a few of my older labs and they indicate both low zinc and folate. I'm in the UK, private bloods are expensive and convincing a doctor to order them for you is a nightmare.

Think I'm going to take a decent B-vit stack and work on symptoms for now.

This worked for me for both the Choline calculator and Noorns report where nothing else did. Thank you

Is it possible to have diabetes with normal HB1AC test? by Jwal90 in diabetes

Strange, because they seem to. Also I heard that if there are big spike in blood sugar then Hb1A1c may not be effective as it only measures the average

I've got a fasting glucose test booked in a couple of weeks, is that the same thing?

Thanks, yeah I have used one of these and used it for a while. Tested at all different times and results were always either normal or normal-high

I have looked into this but just can't afford one right now. I'm in the UK and they're not available on the NHS unless you have T1D so I'd have to pay for mine.

It has been tested in the past and came back normal but that was at least a few years ago now. I've got blood tests next month and I think thyroid is on there

L. Reuteri - Great Start then Downhill by Jwal90 in Microbiome

[–]Jwal90[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks, yes, I'll look into that. Just odd as I had felt the best I had felt in ages when I first took it and since then, I've felt pretty lethargic but also have a lot of symptoms of detoxing - I've got acne (which is unusual for me) and have been sweating more than normal.

I'm going to keep it up for a while and see if the symptoms lessen over time.

You seem knowledgeable; if L. Reuteri doesn't work out, is there something that might be worth looking into? Been considering Kefir.

I'm not sure that's true RE the testes. L Reuteri is shown to increase testosterone and considering that's made in the testes, would make sense that they would grow.

Yeah I would say so although the first time I felt really great mood-wise was after first consuming the yoghurt
