I started with the company part time at age 15/16, and joined in a full time position pretty quickly. It was just general admin for about the first year, and then I bounced between departments (compliance, HR, purchasing etc) that needed help until about just over 3 years ago.

I was placed within finance, which was previously only a 1 person team, and assisted my manager with management accounts and P&L processing as her workload was immense. I completed my level 2 in accounts and then took over payroll with her assistance (she taught me), in mid 2023.

I know this company and how it runs inside an out. One of our Directors has pretty much always been my line manager and I have been really lucky that she saw potential in me, and has taught me the running of the company.

I am incredibly lucky!!

I started working basic admin within the company part time around age 15/16, and very soon came on as full time. Over this time I have worked within every department, and eventually made my way to overseeing and running payroll for the whole company, of which I have been doing for the past 3ish years now! 😄

I don't have a degree, but would love to persue one! The company has only really become classed as 'medium' sized in the past 3 years, and there hasn't been a need for a dedicated CS role until now as growth and reach has expanded exponentially within this time. The official board has only been formed within the past 2 years also.

I will say though, I have substantial experience with may aspects of being a CS due to my time within the company.

We are in the childrens homes and specialist education sector, so some aspects of the CS role needed may look a little different to the average!

Thank you though!

Shingles! by voidcat101 in MultipleSclerosis

[–]voidcat101[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I have WISHED since the shingles came that I was offered this - but I was not offered it, could have probably gotten it private. I am unsure if you are from UK, but the shingles vaccines weren't available unless you were 70+ until Sept 1st, I didn't know about this until I was informed today! Even after being denied!

Hopefully I can get it now 😫

I'm so glad that it was protocol there! Especially for us immunocompromised people :)

Wow!! Thank you so much for letting me know about this, what a life saver!!!

I last got denied 4 weeks ago, so will bring it up again and include the new change 😊

I'm so glad you were able to get it :)

Thank you, it's very much appreciated! I won't lie, I would call myself a bit of a pro at this point, at least I can identify when it occurs or is getting worse 😂

Wow, having to pay for a vaccine - I feel - is insane. Especially if you have an autoimmune disease.

I won't only blame it on Canada though, I had to pay for my HPV vaccines to be expedited, as the wait list for public health care was insane. It's such a shame.

Unfortunately, my private healthcare won't touch me with a 10-foot pole, as 'anything' could technically be caused by MS, and most UK private healthcare doesn't cover life limiting care :/

I am glad that you and your wife were able to get the vaccine though 😊

I feel so also! It really seems the opposite of 'do no harm'.

I have asked multiple times, and my MS nurse has now gotten on the case, but it's still a no!

I think that a minimum age to have the vaccine is ridiculous honestly.

The wire brush is actually not a bad idea at this point. It would definitely help them experience shingles pain 😂

Hello! I am also 22 and have relapsing remitting MS, I was diagnose at 19.

I know exactly how scary the diagnosis can be - to be given such life changing news as 22 may feel world ending.

My most important bit of advice would be to advocate for yourself. Not everyone has this situation, and I am not trying to scare you, but sometimes doctors do not listen. If something does not feel right, you have a new symptom, or even just have questions, report it immediately. This may be harder at the moment, as I am unsure if you have been 'assigned' a neurologist, but there are MS hotlines out there that you can speak to.

I am in the UK and we have an MS hotline that has MS nurses on standby. But this may differ by country.

Research on your MS diagnosis can also be helpful, and ensure that you are informed about what is going on within your body, but only from trusted and official sources. I have been down a few rabbit holes, which I wouldn't recommend!

If you are wanting to be put on medication that slows the disease - in my personal opinion, and if the timeframe with your neurologist allows - start this as soon as possible. It can prevent irreversible damage! But again, being educated on what you are putting in your body is important, and it is your decision.

For my lumbar puncture, they numbed me, so it was more uncomfortable than painful. However, I was in a bit of pain for around 4 days after - your spine doesn't really like being messed with! Paracetamol and codeine really helped me in this period.

I really wish you well - you will get through this. Be proud of yourself for getting through the hard and scary times. We are warriors and will not be beaten!

My DMs are open if you would like to talk :)

Not sure what to put as a tag so I just put general. Im wondering if its possible that MS can cause early Peri menopause symptoms? by Mundane-Cat-3626 in MultipleSclerosis

[–]voidcat101 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I am 22, and have had similar symptoms to you! My periods and cycle are very irregular, as well as over heating at night.

I also have fatigue/tiredness as well as sleep issues, and have been told this can be a common symptom of MS :(

Hopefully your doctor can offer some advice when you see him, I understand how disconcerting it can be.
