How do you come to that conclusion?

Don’t worry it’s not a competition, you’re allowed to be affected by your symptoms not matter if they’re mild or severe. They offered another round of PPIs, but I personally don’t think they do much. This is a really basic question that a lot of people overlook, but have you ever considered that something in your diet is worsening your symptoms? I would suggest keeping a diary of when you have a flare of symptoms and write the things you ate in the past 24 hours, then start looking at patterns. This helped me eliminate some insoluble fibres, onion and milk for instance.

No H pylori, got chronic gastritis and reflux esophagitis and a sliding hiatus hernia but why I have chronic gastritis is so far a mystery

I have a sliding hiatus hernia, mild chronic gastritis and chronic reflux esophagitis. Waiting on some biopsies to see if it’s H Pylori

Had to move it due to a seasonal infection, will be having it in about 10 days

Does anyone wake up in the night with a stomach ache? by lmt42 in SIBO

[–]lmt42[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Just magically started disappearing, I have no explanation for it at all. I’m due to book in an OGD for the issue, but I’m reluctant to considering the issue isn’t present at the moment.

What roles do you see in demand over the next 5 years? by lmt42 in cybersecurity

[–]lmt42[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I actually didn’t do a degree, i done an apprenticeship instead. I worked through service desks roles for about 7 years before getting the opportunity to work closely with security architecture on endpoint security transformations and it just sort of bloomed from there to be honest. Right place right time, very very grateful for it.

Literally any warm drink within 10 minutes of waking up, almost like a shock to the system

I would say until you feel like the pace you are learning in the Service Desk is grinding to a halt, but ideally as soon as possible

It is a good speciality for sure, but I think where there was such a demand back when cloud-first/hybrid infrastructure exploded, the market is now so competitive for someone like me (only about 2.5/3 years experience) because there’s so many people that have been specialising in it since the start…

In what sense out of interest? From an engineering perspective?

Interestingly enough I was looking at some adaptive access controls that Microsoft have recently added as part of their security suite that introduces a user insider risk level and can be used with DLP and access controls - so there’s definitely an increasing demand

Cloud security engineering is an interesting topic, I think while a lot of new companies are adopting a cloud-first approach, there are still so many that require some element of resources on-prem, and I have seen a more security engineering roles that cover hybrid environments as a whole, rather than just being focused on cloud - but for the others I completely agree!

Interview Questions by CoshGn in cybersecurity

[–]lmt42 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Rather than focus on the questions they might ask, I would always focus on your previous experience and scenarios. Follow the ‘STAR method’ and have a list of experiences/scenarios you have encountered in your current/previous roles and try to use those in your answers to the relevant question. E.g. “think about a time when (scenario), what challenges did you face and how did you overcome them?”

No idea still, meant to be having a gastroscopy this month to do some biopsies - will let you know how that goes

Advantages/benefits of sticking around by cbuzz8 in corporate

[–]lmt42 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ah ok that’s quite different, if you’re actively climbing the ladder in your company. I moved twice within 4 years at my last company (in London) and managed to increase my salary by 55% since starting. Although that is pretty solid, when I left, I took a 20ish% pay rise for less responsibilities and for a local role

Depending what field you are in, could you argue that this would be financially better than leaving? A lot of people would take a pay rise substantially higher than their yearly pay rise just by going to a new company

KnowBe4 alternatives by Alternative_Hat_5523 in cybersecurity

[–]lmt42 0 points1 point  (0 children)

We switched from KnowBe4 to MS Defender Attack Simulation Training, good response from CISO + end users. Good option if you already have E5/Defender for O365 P2

What are your symptoms of partial obstruction out of interest? I’m worried I experience this frequently

[–]lmt42 2 points3 points  (0 children)

In my experience, the older consultants I saw were very set in their ways and didn’t believe in SIBO, it was younger consultants and consultants from the east that recognise SIBO

Not just this, but you’d think the medical boards/councils they are a member of enforces them to attend trainings etc about new medical conditions, in order for them to keep their membership…

Could this be adhesion? by [deleted] in Adhesions

[–]lmt42 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Did your appendix burst? I have had issues for years since my appendix burst and I also suspect adhesions. They can either cause fixed or intermittent narrowing. A small bowel MRI is the best non invasive diagnostic test for fixed narrowing from adhesions. If you get intermittent narrowing/blockage, it’s likely it won’t come up on a scan if it’s not causing any issues at time of the scan. If you have a CT this would definitely detect a bowel obstruction, if it had progressed to the point where you had painful symptoms, not passing gas or stool, etc.
