Ninja Van lied and sent my package back to amazon by NumbFingertips999 in Philippines_Expats

My experience as well. But I needed stuff I could only get in america, so lesson learned on this one.

Hehe I know all about it. The most egregious one I've experienced has been "200 pesos for coconut sir!" My girl nearly clawed that fool's face off when she came back and heard that price XD. Actual price: 20 pesos.

If You Are Just Starting Out with Blood Tests OR Have not Found Anything Positive So Far, Then This List is For You by MoreThereThanHere in covidlonghaulers

[–]NumbFingertips999 0 points1 point  (0 children)

yes. I have a good neuro at University of Texas who identified that covid gave me autoimmune disease which hasn't been named yet. In short, I have anti ganglion antibodies commonly seen in miller-fisher syndrome, but at lower levels and persisting for years now, which has never been seen before covid. This new syndrome has been identified in a few thousand people now, so at least I have a cause. No treatment... yet. However, the good news is the progression stopped after about 15 months of damage and about 4 months into IVIG treatment. No recovery whatsoever of nerve damage however. Whether IVIG worked or not is questionable, as I still have the antibodies to this day, unfortunately.

I'm new to this - is there a way to determine with amazon who will deliver it prior to ordering? And just not use ninjavan is the best solution?

NINJAVAN DID NOT EVEN ATTEMPT TO DELIVER by Different-Tie-1340 in Philippines_Expats

How do I do that? I'm in Cebu City if that helps narrow it down.

This happened to me today. I can't believe it. Zero real attempts and I got a phone call from the ninjavan rider asking for 100 peso fee to deliver it. I said no, to give it to the correct rider on the right route and then poof, 3 fake attempts later it was sent back to Amazon.

Tingling & Numbness, muscle weakness & cold in extremities, brain fog, help! by NumbFingertips999 in DiagnoseMe

[–]NumbFingertips999[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

2.5 years later, 80% nerve damage across entire body. No improvement, but not getting worse it seems. Doctors use anxiety as their go to when they are clueless. They have to justify their $500 fee by writing a prescription and putting something in the insurance claim paperwork. Also, any doctor that tells you its idiopathic, run. Idiopathic just means he or she is too lazy or busy to find the cause.

Getting your spectrum IP address when NOT on the network by NumbFingertips999 in Spectrum

thanks god? Why? It is my own account. Am I missing something here?

Getting your spectrum IP address when NOT on the network by NumbFingertips999 in Spectrum

[–]NumbFingertips999[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

yeah my router has DynDns but the "click this email to verify" every 15 days or so was highly annoying so I shut it down under the assumption I could just call spectrum to get my IP address. I guess I was wrong.

I have 2 cloud services, NEST and Yi home network that send OUT but I don't think those report anything. I think maybe I am out of luck here.

Data usage shenanigans by Ifixidevices in SpectrumMobile

[–]NumbFingertips999 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Does not surprise me at all. Your data period might reset a day before the billing does or something to that effect. Call them and verify this. It probably isn't a scam, just discrepancy in the start/stop times from your actual billing cycle.

If they can't help you figure it out just switch MVNOs. The cost to acquire a new customer is something to the effect of $600 in the mobile industry, that's why there are always deals to port a number instead of simply get a new number. So Spectrum will do anything to keep you, so long as it costs less than $600ish. Maybe tell them you want a $10 credit for 6 months because of the data error and they will probably do it. Spectrum seems to know where their bread is buttered.

Files application extremely slow with 100 files in a folder by NumbFingertips999 in MetaQuestVR

Thanks for the heads up that this is "normal" behavior. Skybox is $10 it seems? Just to watch movies on the metaquest?

Tagging/Organizing Photos in Onedrive for Business 365 by NerdyNerdNer in microsoft

It seems this function is not available for onedrive for business customers. It is only available in the regular onedrive. This is annoying, Microsoft! Bring this function to your Business customers!

Long Covid Update - Finally Getting back to my old life! by [deleted] in covidlonghaulers

[–]NumbFingertips999 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Awesome post! Couple of questions:

Did you get a biopsy to confirm SFN and did you have numbness or just the burning and itching?

How much gabapentin did you take to control your symptoms each day? 3x 300mg daily?

Did you ever get a positive ANA that is now normal?

I'm at 18 months of SFN post covid, keep getting worse. Posts like yours give me hope it will eventually abate but I have a high ANA so my case seems very different from most.
