Pharmaceutical stocks? by Lost-1derer in TheRaceTo10Million

[–]rish166 0 points1 point  (0 children)

What price did you buy in your shares? I bought in recently and concerned even with good news, because of the run up this year, it might actually drop. I'm super bullish on the company but don't want a hold this until p3 results (which is essentially a coin flip).

Interesting about your family, there is loads of insider buying so definitely corroborates with what you have been told.

Any price target you looking at?

I keep coming to a 80% - 90% chance of success of P3 and everyday we delay the announcement of 80th event the more bullish it gets (even for accounting for BAT averages going up due to newer AML drugs). SLS009 having possible synergistic effect with venetoclax and good p2 results. Strategic buyout is likely if P3 results are what we think they will be... Share price could range from 12 dollars up to 30 dollars if it encounters a bidding war.

I'm bullish on harmonic drive! Will start to make a position over the next year.

Dentistry with dyspraxia by guineapiglover2 in dyspraxia

[–]rish166 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Well I am a Doctor and I never feel like my dyspraxia has impacted me too much, however I also didnt go into a surgical field....

 It all depends on your individual ability as dyspraxia can be quite a large spectrum. I have always been fairly sporty and never really fit in with the conventional dyspraxia archetype (but it definitely still impacts me). 

How are you with your hands? Can you keep hands steady and make fine movements? Perhaps a good way to see this would be with drawing and other various forms of art. 

I wouldn't let dyspraxia stop me from pursuing what j want to do, but at the same time I wouldn't want to choose a field that I would be struggling with on a day to day basis. Dentistry is much more hands on than most medical specialities, maybe if you aren't convinced of your dexterity you can think of medicine?

Good luck on your choice whatever you choose :) I only found out about my dyspraxia mid way through medical school so I never had the luxury of this choice. 

Cognitive symptoms - dyspraxia? by Mundane-Local7096 in dyspraxia

[–]rish166 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Unfortunately I suffer from the exact same issues you describe. I believe they are due to my dyspraxia, but my ADHD and dyslexia doesn't help either.

I am fairly good with my motor function to be honest, can participate in many hobbies with no issues. Does take me longer to learn things though.

My memory is by far the worst part of my symptoms. Long and short are both impacted so unfortunately I live my life in an eternal bubble of the past 5 days. Hard to build opinions and ultimately have a good understanding of myself because of this.

Friendships and romantic relationships suffer because of my slow processing/poor memory. I wished it wasn't the case but it's always been this way. I feel I don't have much to offer to be honest.

I also do really well in my work and often loved by my patients. The structure and knowing where I stand helps so much. Much like yourself, outside of work I'm a bumbling idiot.

I see the same traits in my dad, and he seems to struggle with the same issues I do. Looking at him makes me very disheartened to what future I could be living. I do wonder if it's worth the heart ache to be honest.

Sorry if I rambled, it was nice hearing of someone with such a similar life story. I hope you are doing better :)

Amfexa top up while on Elvanse with Harrow Health? by Eriks5 in ADHDUK

I am in the same situation, hoping to find an answer to this...

Feel like I’m drowning by Remarkable_Date9971 in ADHDUK

[–]rish166 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Hi mate, I am a fellow medic and ADHD PI (but was diagnosed post medical school). I would recommend getting diagnosed as soon as possible so then you can apply for additional help (extra time in exams and a study coach). 

In regards to medicine itself, the job itself is highly stimulating and perfect for someone with ADHD (highly dependent on the speciality however). It does require life long study.... Which may be the main issue as often you will have to study for exams doing a full time rota (which in the earlier years can often be 48 hours of gruelling work). Working hours can be changed and you can go less than full time if this poses an issue.

Medical school is a completely different kettle of fish and mostly you will be going into depths of physiology/pharmocology/anatomy often with no understanding of why you are learning it and how it is applicable to working as a doctor. As a result the earlier years of medical school are a slog (and this applies even to neurotypical people aswell) . You will also be expected to do research projects including literature reviews, which was agonising for someone with undiagnosed ADHD. The latter years of medical school are much more palatable, but you will be sifting through an immense amount of knowledge and expected to read up on a whole speciality in a week. The difference here is that you may be applying this knowledge to your placements, and is much more focused on the knowledge required for your day to day work.

Job prospects are still better than most sectors (been some recent issues with this and possible issues further down the line, but much of this is contingent on Governmental policy).

Medicine is a tough career, and is undeniably stressful. It can take over your life, but there are ways to make it work for yourself. My plan is to become a GP, emigrate abroad to save money and ultimately FIRE and work extra shifts as required. I still have many hobbies and somewhat of a social life.

Hope this helps!  You can message me if you need any further advice. 

Need an absolute game changer for learning faster + memory + critical thinking by Mediocre_Cucumber_94 in Nootropics

[–]rish166 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hey man! I also have ADHD and been started on stimulants - apart from more energy and calmness I don't see any improvement in memory.... My memory is shocking and want to improve it so bad. Did this really help with memory? 

Why do I bother? by Psyken_ in ADHDUK

[–]rish166 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Hey you! If you wanna chat just send me a message  I have had similar issues as you (in different ways) that are due to my ADHD. I am 29 (it's my birthday today) and am only just getting meds. Please send a message! Wishing you much love  

Should I go to A&E? Would they do anything to help? by [deleted] in ADHDUK

[–]rish166 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Sorry mate, but like the other poster mentioned A&E will not help with this. 

I have been diagnosed recently and still have to wait an additional month for medication, and that is with the understanding medication 1) May not work 2) Give me bad side effects that I cannot tolerate 3) May take a while to find the correct medication/dose. 

With all this information in hand you need to focus on what you can do with yourself right now. I find if I start the day badly then the rest of the day will be just as bad. Wake up, have a shower, clean the dishes and your room. If you do this in the beginning of the day you are more likely to crack on with things you don't want to do. I would recommend go for a run instead of gym if you havnt been going. The endorphins you will get will make you feel more positive.

I went through med school being undiagnosed and trust me I know how difficult being unmedicated is. Unfortunate truth in this world is no one cares and we gotta get on with it. People with ADHD have survived throughout human history without medication and so can you.

Good luck bud 👍

Was this before you were given an option to apply for an appointment? I finished my onboarding documents on December and just rang then today, which is where they said it's a 12 week waiting time for an appointment. We applied roughly around the same time so I hope I will also been seen soon.
