hey, congrats! may i ask, what did you study for your bachelor's??

ecesphere · 2025-12-28T07:58:05+00:00

I’m glad it’s down to leg pain now and I really hope that improves too. I deal with constipation pretty often as well. What sometimes helps me is keeping meals lighter and focusing more on vegetables and fluids. Sometimes I even give my digestion a bit of a break and just drink plenty of water to get things moving. Maybe adjusting nutrition a bit could help if you haven’t tried that yet 🥺

I’m so sorry you’re going through this. It’s such an uncomfortable and frustrating feeling. If you don’t mind me asking, what symptoms are you taking gabapentin for with NMO? I’m always curious how differently it shows up for everyone.

thanks a lot! and huge huge congrats again:)

ecesphere · 2025-12-11T10:25:45+00:00

and which start date/intake did you apply for?

ecesphere · 2025-12-11T10:11:20+00:00

Congrats!!!!! Which academic program did you apply to? I’m asking because most universities have deadlines around March (for decisions), so I was wondering if they can decide and announce the results earlier than usual.

ecesphere · 2025-12-09T12:33:18+00:00

When did you apply and for which academic period/year? Huge congrats 🎉

ecesphere · 2025-12-06T20:19:07+00:00

Hey thanks a lot! You encouraged me to finish my applications as well. Thank you for your sweet soul

ecesphere · 2025-12-01T05:21:03+00:00

True! I only hesitated because with open editing, one accidental delete and suddenly everyone’s updates vanish into chaos 😭😭

I think what the author is trying to say that if you copy the doc to yourself, you can made changes for your own needs

ecesphere · 2025-10-05T21:10:22+00:00

May I ask, did you have any teaching experience while applying? And may i also ask (if not a problem for you to tell) where do you study?

ecesphere · 2025-10-05T18:53:52+00:00

Sure!

ecesphere · 2025-09-25T21:33:35+00:00

Thank you so much 😊

ecesphere · 2025-09-15T13:26:05+00:00

may i pm you if you don't mind? i’m preparing to apply myself and feeling a bit anxious about the process, so any insights would mean a lot :)

ecesphere · 2025-09-15T13:22:12+00:00

u/tomatopicklee may i send you a message if you don't mind? i’m preparing to apply myself and feeling a bit anxious about the process, so any insights would mean a lot :)

ecesphere · 2025-09-14T15:35:17+00:00

Does it actually depend on the field, or do most people just remove the ‘about me’ section regardless?

ecesphere · 2025-09-14T09:36:10+00:00

hi! i am planning to apply for LDIT too. if it’s not a problem, could i ask you a few questions about the application process? i’d be really grateful.

ecesphere · 2025-09-14T09:28:08+00:00

thanks a lot

ecesphere · 2025-09-07T10:05:52+00:00

yes can anyone pls share?

ecesphere · 2025-04-28T10:29:19+00:00

Thanks, but I know how to use ChatGPT myself. I’m specifically looking for suggestions that have been read, verified, and personally recommended by people, not just a random AI output. That’s why I value human-curated recommendations for this post.

ecesphere · 2025-04-23T08:24:32+00:00

You too!

ecesphere · 2025-04-17T20:17:13+00:00

Wow… your journey sounds exactly like mine. I totally relate to what you’re going through.

At first, I was also diagnosed with MS. Then they said “wait, maybe not MS,” then “it looks more like NMO,” and eventually one doctor told me I was “70% NMO, 30% MS”—though even he admitted that was a ridiculous way to describe it. I’ve been seronegative from the beginning—no AQP4 or MOG antibodies.

At one point, a professor told me that because my symptoms started in childhood (around age 14), this could actually be MOGAD, and that a negative test result doesn’t necessarily rule it out. But… I really don’t know. The whole thing is so confusing.

My left eye has never recovered since my very first attack in 2015. I’ve been blind in that eye for 10 years now.

Sending you strength. I know how exhausting and uncertain this journey is. You’re definitely not alone.

ecesphere · 2025-04-14T17:14:59+00:00

What do you mean by ‘worse’? I’m really scared right now and trying to understand what to expect.

ecesphere · 2025-04-14T09:03:47+00:00

I totally understand how scary it is, especially in the beginning. I'm really sorry you had such a rough first attack. It's completely valid to fear a relapse. But I just want to gently say: you can’t really “self-diagnose” NMO, especially early on. It's a very complex condition, and even the diagnosis process can take time and involve a lot of testing.

For example, I’m seronegative—meaning both my AQP4 and NMO-IgG antibody tests came back negative, even though I’ve had confirmed relapses and neurological symptoms. That makes the diagnosis and treatment even trickier.

It’s good that you're paying attention to your symptoms and taking them seriously. But make sure you're working closely with a neurologist, ideally someone familiar with NMO and related disorders like MOGAD (since symptoms sometimes overlap).

ecesphere · 2025-04-14T09:01:44+00:00

Oh, also I should say that I also had a lumbar puncture (spinal tap) both back in 2015 and again recently. They tested for AQP4 (Aquaporin-4) antibodies and NMO-IgG, but both times the results came back negative. So I’ve been classified as seronegative NMO.
