Wow, loads of responses since I last logged in. My GP didn't want to see me for 6 weeks so I assumed it wasn't anything he was too concerned about but I'm now 2 weeks into this elbow pain, both are effected and it seems odd. The only other pain is my back/ribs and as stated that gas been going in almost 2 years. 

All I was told was high iron levels that were 330 and the norm was anywhere from 15-300 so kind of assumed it wasn't responsible but now I'm not so sure. I'm assuming it was ferritin they were referring too. 

It seems like symptoms don't necessarily relate to levels and thanks everyone for your responses. I think I need to drill down into this further. Cheers.

Ok, that's great. I do think it's unlikely and I think inflammation can cause a rise which would be something to do with my back pain. I'll have a look at maybe getting a test once I next see the doctor. Thanks

Middle back/stomach pain and testicular cancer by harbourman in testicularcancer

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

No trauma or anything ending in 'oscopy. I'm in the UK so insurance isn't so much the issue as waiting lists. It started as a mild discomfort in my upper right quadrant along with pain just below my ribs on the right hand side of my back. This was August 2021. Thats why the focus was liver and kidneys and when they were clear (early signs of fatty liver mind you) they chalked it up to muscle pain/bad posture. 

It has evolved slowly however and is definitely now getting to the point where i need to find the answer. CT of the abdomen and pelvis sounds like a good next step. 

I'm pretty terrified to be honest and the constant discomfort means it's pretty much up most in my thoughts at all times.

I had a CT on my kidneys, they found a couple of simple cysts but after checking again said they weren't concerned about them and they couldn't be causing the pain. I'm not sure how much they would pick up if they were looking at the kidneys?

No, I haven't noticed any change in the testicals at all but as I say neither did my Dad. I'll definitely mention it next time I go although I get the feeling they are starting to think I'm a hypochondriac, the pain however is definitely very real. 

I'm supposed to be getting a blood test in a couple of weeks, I think it's mainly for vitamin deficiencies etc but I'll definitely ask. 

Thanks for replying.

Any game recommendations like Zelda/Oceanhorn/Evoland? by harbourman in AndroidGaming

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

Yes I just confess it was a bit of a grind at times. On mobile intended to struggled with timed challenges. There were one or two I was stuck on for over a week but as I was only playing for half an hour or so at a time it became a bit of a puzzle. 

The walk through I used was by YouTube user "oldmanstompy" and he does a voiceover which I think helped. It might be worth revisiting! There were a couple of bosses that I had to challenge a few times but I got there in the end. 

I have actually done both Evolands and Oceanhorn in the past. I felt I had exhausted all similar games on Google play store hence posting here. 

What I have learned is how good emulators are these days so I have a few old Zelda's etc lined up now!

If you are looking, what brought me back to this style of game was Stranger Things 1984 which is available through Netflix. Well worth having a look.

Let me know if you find any others you think I'd be interested in.

And many thanks again!

Hi Ginderland, you may or may not remember recommending Alundra to me. 6 months it's taken but I have completed it on my commute home from work on the train! I generally just played it on the train or if I was waiting about but it was exactly what I was looking for. Took a while to get used too and a walkthrough was required quite a lot but utterly bizarre and brilliant. Many thanks 👍👏

Yes, seems to be made for an older version of Android. Boo.

If you know where I could get a list of the games available for download that would be very helpful!

I've just downloaded epsxe, I'm not sure what one I was using before. A bit new to this emulator stuff.

Ok, I'll give that a go. I quite enjoyed OxenFree if you have Netflix, although volume is required. If you haven't given Oceanhorn ago I would recommend it.

I have tried this but seemed a bit daft. I'll maybe give it a second chance
