Hi,
I am 40 years old, and I have come to terms with the fact that I might not make it until my 50th birthday (8 years ago I thought that about my 40th birthday).
I have Magic Johnson'd the f*ing sh*t out of this disease but I'm not winning. I let my wife divorce me years ago before we had children. I haven't told anyone in my parents' family including my siblings, but I'm sure a couple of them are suspicious that this is possibly the reality that I have kept to myself.
Now I found out I have to start taking Erythropoietin to combat anemia probably permanently and until I do I just am so tired. I had been Rx'd antibiotics so much that I became allergic to a few of them. Then about 2 years ago my allergies ceased to present; see an allergy is an auto-immune reaction, and for you to have that reaction you have to have an immune system and by that point I no longer had one.
How do you cope? I may have a 205 IQ but I can't seem to answer this question anymore. My ex-wife started contacting me again after 6 years of radio silence; she wants to see me. In fact she is doing well, she even wants me to move in with her so she can take care of me. But instead of feeling happiness I can't think of anything before that has caused me this much sadness. I mean I took care of her in the beginning, we parted amicably. Now it is a complete 180 degrees from the relationship I remember. How do you cope; how do I cope?
 
You live your life the best you can. You join support groups for people like yourself. What is your diagnosis? It’s not lack of immune system. There can be treatments, depending on what it is you are missing. Are you missing IgG, IgA, or IgM?
I’m not trying to be rude, this is something I actually know a lot about.
 
There are Facebook groups you can join, depending on your deficiency. There are groups on Inspire. You don’t mention what you have- what is your deficiency? There are treatments depending on what you’re deficient in.
I would recommend meeting others like yourself. You can learn a lot from others who have the same disorder.
 
My wife starts retuxen infusions in 2 weeks. Hysterectomy last Thursday ovaries and all. Confirmed vasculitis amd small fiber neuropothy. We believe it's what they used to call churgg Strauss. Egpa now. She had Brain legions since 2020 wink. Now has a cane and handicap parking and pain from the time she gets to till she goes to bed if she does. Shes 46.

Had mri's for 20 years due to a prednisone induced adenoma. Chicken. Or the egg I don't care about conspiracies or rabbit holes.

I'm trying to understand what you have going on. Autoimmune? Or immunodeficiency?

I've been steeping myself in potential solutions and info fron the uk, aus and nz. Some of the best doctors I can find. Self pay and some not. It's important because the self pay and concierge guys don't have to bite their tongue.

Tik-t0c had been a good resource. Barbara 0'neiL and others
 
Be your best and most vocal advocate and don't let them ignore you, don't accept waiting on call backs. I'll be right up in the office fuming being just extra enough to not get le called when I have to. The medical industry has changed. We gotta help ourselves as much as we can. It's our lives not a Doordash. I'm way beyond over it and since everybody is too busy burning books and chanting parental rights, we sure aren't addressing Healthcare or patient rights or med shortages or our system of lining pharmco pockets while people still have to use the e.r as a free-clinic perpetuating the problem. Healthcare should be a human right

  4. Gulp2788 @ Gulp2788: whereas if I use fiat to buy something the money is green anyway. Monero does this really well. Anyway rant over, you can DM me if you'd like to talk more about cryptos.
  5. Gulp2788 @ Gulp2788: I don't really think that people understand the whole point of cryptos in the first place anymore. BTC just won't be adopted by governments because the transactions are too public and what's worse, money that is freshly minted is better than money that has been used. Like if my btc was used for something that was illegal does that mean the money is "poisoned"?
  6. Gulp2788 @ Gulp2788: @xenxra Yeah, Like I said I've never really been that fond of btc, it isn't used as a currency, just as a place for people to invest money in, even though the whole purpose of btc was to be a currency. If it doesn't fulfill that role, what does? Monero certainly does.
  7. tiquanunderwood @ tiquanunderwood: What's good guys! Just got back home. Missing football today :( Fuck the probowl lol
  8. shoutback @ shoutback: Volkanovski is the greatest featherweight of all time. Better than Aldo or Holloway at their peaks.
  9. S @ sawganaut: I bet btc bottom is in
  10. D @ dragnetopher: No, I don’t think it. I know it. And it’s not just bitcoin, it’s all crypto. And like I said, they’re selling to acquire liquidity for when countries truly start utilizing what’s been set in place. The USD is under controlled demolition as we speak. This is all part of it.
  11. xenxra @ xenxra: there is no shortage of whales - https://tikolu.net/i/fmnru.png
  12. xenxra @ xenxra: tokenisation is not a plan its already been happening for months, ive been trading this whole move on silver through ethereum
  13. xenxra @ xenxra: you think whales are dumping bitcoin because of something everyone has known about for like 4 years? what does bitcoin liquidity have to do with trading tokenized assets? they don't have pooled liquidity.
  14. D @ dragnetopher: Whales are tanking BTC due to the fact that the future is coming now, literally. There’s a plan to tokenize every single asset possible. This is whales dumping so they can have liquidity for the Springtime.
  15. xenxra @ xenxra: @Gulp2788 this is a terrible spot to buy bitcoin haphazardly because it's going down another $5k -$7k if 80,000 doesn't hold. i told everyone to get the fuck out of bitcoin at $103k. it's better to buy late when the bottom is more certain than throw darts and act like the opposite outcome was unavoidable just because it went down "a lot" and everyone seems to be "freaking out". wait for it to get back over 85k
  16. xenxra @ xenxra: @aarons the last time i said monero was on discount in here it went up 5x in 3 months
  17. Gulp2788 @ Gulp2788: good opportunity to buy more btc if you are gonna do so imo, me I'm buying the btc to switch into better currencies
  18. Gulp2788 @ Gulp2788: bah politics, no need to worry BTC is a honeypot anyway
  19. fishladder @ fishladder: down since trump
  20. Gulp2788 @ Gulp2788: btc has been hovering around 90k for a year everyone is freaking out tbh I am laughing
