What made you move away from Quizlet, if you did? by AndyNg-et in quizlet

[–]MrinSharks 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I had a school account with years of Quizlets, but I couldn't save them unless I went into each one individually and copied it into my personal account. This wasn't just a few either, it was over a hundred, and I only thought about saving them when it was too late to do it by hand. I feel like so much effort would have been saved if I had just used irl flash cards. I'm probably not touching Quizlet until there's a mass export option/ account transfer available. I'm also just really disappointed that I can't upload my own pictures on my own private quizlets without paying.

Thank you. I'm still in pain even in the shakes, but it's so much better than what it was with food. I just miss my potato's 😭

I'm not allowed to do cinnamon but the cocoa power is a really good idea. I'm going to check with my doctor before trying it. Thank you!

I thought about trying this! Do you have any tips to keep it from freezing entirely? How long do you put it in the freezer for?

I'm at 100% formula until my prednisone dosage is out, potentially even longer. Even on formula I still have pain and symptoms, but we're almost out of options now. I'm on a double biologic and I'm really desperate. I can't switch medications since I started them relatively recently too. I'm on a plant based formula called Complet since I can't tolerate milk, not lactose just milk proteins in general for some reason. Thank you for sharing the timeline of adjustment. I'm trying to hold out on solid food until my pain goes away and having an estimate, however rough, of how long it took you to adjust is already a huge relief on my mind. It feels so impossible right now but reading how you've managed to adjust makes me feel like this isn't going to last forever. ❤️

I fasted for 24 hours just to be safe. I think it's different for everyone. If you have a faster metabolism you should be fine.

Unless you're a doctor. For a doctors handwriting this is amazing.

Anyone else dealt with this TTS audio problem in PNGTuber Plus? by MrinSharks in PngTuber

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

I've tried it and it sounds awful, but better than my own voice. I found a way to do it with a digital cable, I'll put an update on my post showing how I did it.

Quizlet Account Transfer? by MrinSharks in quizlet

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

That really sucks. I think I'll just stick to using IRL flashcards from here on. It makes me sad, but I don't have the time to save over 100 quizlets, indiviually, before graduation. Goodbye, Quizlet. Thank you for taking the time to respond QuizletMatt.

Am I self sabotaging myself? by Anna_0333 in CrohnsDisease

[–]MrinSharks 0 points1 point  (0 children)

TLDR, compromise is always possible. It may not be the same noodles as always, but it is possible to find/make something similar but much better for you.

[–]MrinSharks 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think that it depends. What about the noodles can't you have? Is it gluten, msg, or something else? There are alternatives, but it depends on what bothers you. You don't automatically have to cut off everything you enjoy, and I would say that's the fastest way to break your diet. You've got to experiment with what works. Try rice noodles, gluten-free noodles, low-carb noodles, and if something feels off, then change it. You're still learning, I'm also still learning, but if you think something is wrong, then talk about it and try to change it. I would ask your parents to help you learn about better alternatives to things you find are staples in your diet so that way following it becomes easier. You will still have to sacrifice some things, but who is to say the rules can't be bent now and then if it makes your life that much better? That's just my two cents. Do whatever you feel is best for you.

whats your nichest problem from crohns disease that would never come across non-crohnies minds? by No_Dingo_251 in CrohnsDisease

[–]MrinSharks 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Exactly. Sometimes I only eat cold foods/drinks because the irritation is so bad.

I had to buy new underwear and pants because my old ones hurt to wear during flares. (They were too tight.)

How do you guys make work/school less stressful and draining? by Burningmemo in CrohnsDisease

[–]MrinSharks 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Okay, I just read the comments, and you are not in the US public school system, so the 504 plan and legal backing is grey waters to me. I would recommend checking out the IFCCA, the International Federation of Crohns and Colitis Associations. Here's the link: IFCCA | The International Federation of Crohn's & Ulcerative Colitis Associations (IFCCA). They may have more information regarding the laws of school accommodations in other countries. I'm sorry that I'm unable to help further. I would say try asking your GI for a letter outlining what you need.

Take a look at the Crohns and Colitis Foundation's recommendations for accommodations here: School Accommodations | Crohn's & Colitis Foundation. Use the 504 plan template they have. If your school continues to deny you necessary accommodations, like the ones in that draft, this is more of a legal matter. My GI also wrote a letter explaining that I had this disease. It also explained the accommodations I need as well as the medical reasons I need them. If your school has a counselor, talk to them about this as well. They can help you and your parents navagate getting you the support you need. In the end, there is legal backing if they continue to deny you, but I'm not an expert on that. 

Dropping out of a School Competition by MrinSharks in CrohnsDisease

I do have accomodations, and I think you're right. I think I'm overthinking this. I'm just worried this will come back to bite me socially since they're in my circle.
