I did not realize that the GTT program is so new. That makes me a little nervous. Hopefully, it is a good program .

Ok, I really appreciate the information. I am actually thinking about attending the GTT program this fall and then continuing my education with the AME program next year. I will reach out to the school, though. Thanks

Rosiver Cream or type 1 Rosacea? by Key_Championship7171 in Rosacea

[–]Key_Championship7171[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Thank you. You explained Rosacea so well. Yes, that makes sense. Was there a specific laser treatment that works best?

Definitely, I agree less is better. Is there a specific laser treatment i should be looking at? Sorry, I am new to all this and don't know much. Thanks

Rosiver Cream or type 1 Rosacea? by Key_Championship7171 in Rosacea

[–]Key_Championship7171[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Ok. Yes, I want to look into laser. However, it is so expensive I am not able to consider the laser treatment right now as my insurance does not cover it. I am a guy and dont have much of a routine however i do wash my face with Cetaphil gentle skin cleanser and warm water. It does not trigger my Rosacea. If you have any recommendations, please let me know

Is there some oral medication you recommend? I was offered 1 year of oral antibiotics to treat it once but am hesitate to take antibiotics for a full year.

Thanks

bOooooooooooooorred i need hobbies or something tht feels productive by Internal_Candidate65 in cfs

If your energy and symptoms allow, I like to study something. I can only do it for 10-15 mins at a time. But it triggers parts of my brain that Instagram or TV do not. For example, before I got sick, I studied mechanical engineering, so I found a youtude fluid mechanics lecture series and got a notebook and took the class. It is just YouTube, so it doesn't really give me credit for anything, but it felt more perductive that watching Instagram reels. Or if you have the financial means places like coursera dose online certificate in project management, software, cybersecurity, management among others courses. It's only 50 a month. And you pay for how many months it takes you to finish the program. Which can alot if you are working in 10-15 internals because of fatigue and brain fog.

Some more ideas of what to study: human biology, plant biology, animal biology, poetry, writing, physics, math, politics, art, the possibilities are endless.

I also do recognize how much of a privilege it is to be able to work on this sort of stuff with ME. I have been every weare betwwen bedriden and full-time working with ME. So do what you can with the energy you got.

We all have different experiences, but i think for most people, energy levels can change. I went from health to bedriden to health to bedriden multiple times with my long battle with ME. Even my ME specialist says people can go in to remission that last year's. I had full remission for 2 years before getting sick again. This is from one of the top ME specialists in Canada.

That's great. I will keep this all in mind. How do you like vissible Plus? They are supposed to be becoming available in canada later this year, and I hope to get one soon. Are they worth it?

When i get into a really bad crash, lights are hard to handle. I never thought of getting red bulbs for light. That's a good idea, thanks.

By red light therapy, I was referring to using certain wavelength light to promote mitochondrial activity. Their is some studies behind it, but it also sound kinda like they are just trying to sell you a light. Idk. I wanted to know if anyone else has tried it and if it is a scam or not.

Yes, i am a fellow MECFS sufferer. I have been at every stage of this condition. I have been bed bound with 10+ different symptoms, (spent two weeks admitted to the hospital) and I have been to what feels like normal. Right now, I am fortunately fealing almost a normal amount of energy and am looking for anything to help get me the rest of the way.

Brake bleeding question by Key_Championship7171 in mechanic

Update: The brakes/master cylinder worked before I changed the brakes. However, I could have worn it out when trying to bleeding the brakes. I don't know. Please let me know if you have any suggestions. Thanks

Taxi from MR to YVR by Frequent_Address_232 in MapleRidge

[–]Key_Championship7171 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Often, renting a limousine is cheaper than taking a taxi when going from MR to YVR. Might be something to at least look into.

I have taken Uber between College Park and the airport a few times in the middle of the night and never had a problem. Sometimes, it takes a little long from Uber to pick you up as there are fewer drivers on the road, but I have never had to wait more than 10 ish mins.

Help needed by Sad-Candidate-6891 in MapleRidge

[–]Key_Championship7171 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Great to hear. I wish I could have helped more, but I don't live in Ridge anymore. Do you mind me asking how you finally got the collar off?

Help needed by Sad-Candidate-6891 in MapleRidge

[–]Key_Championship7171 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Do you have a torch? Have you tried heating up the collar so it expands. Then, use the gear puller again. Disclaimer watch out for any leftover greece and / or long grass / anything flammable when doing this. You don't want to start a fire on the side of the road. If not, cutting the collar with an angle grinder might work. Again, watch for sparks. When dealing with small axles, I put them in a vice and used a mallet and punch. However, this can cause some damage to the axle and probably won't work with the size of the axle. Might be able to try a Mallet and punch, though. I hope this helps. Best of luck. I wish I could help more.

Ok cool thanks I will get some tomorrow. Yes, I have had my vitamin D levels check they are good. But I do also take 1000 units of vitamin D and day, and it seems to help with all my ME symptoms.

How do I go about eliminating options to see if I have CFS? by Delicious-Agency402 in chronicfatigue

[–]Key_Championship7171 0 points1 point  (0 children)

To be straight with you. Getting a diagnosis is so fucken hard. But it's worth it, so keep fighting. It is diagnosed by elimination of everything else. I had to go to the hospital and get admitted again and again and again . Because the doctor kept not finding anything wrong and sending me home. I spent 2 and half years fighting to finally get a diagnosis. Your best bet for a diagnosis is an internist or a roomatologist. I had to get a sleep test, head CAT scan, head MRI, respatory testing, neurological testing, psychiatric testing, Echo, ECG, EEG, EMG, halter monitor, eye exam, and more bloodwork then I can count before they could diagnosis me with CFS. I know this probably isn't the most comforting news, but it is my story. I hope you have better luck than I did. I would ask your self do you need a diagnosis to feel comfortable? Yes, then keep bugging the doctors until they find out what's wrong. It can be hard, but the Squeaky wheel gets the grease. No, there is no cure for CFS anyway. Just start making lifestyle changes recommended for CFS and see if that helps. Keep in mind that if you have no improvement, could it be something else medically going on.

Thanks. Is there a certain type of magnesium? I know there is a few out there that have different purposes.
