So glad you were able to make a decision that is best for you. I work in stores as a sales rep. Merchandising is about 20% of my job. We are probably the same age and when I have several days of building displays, merchandising, and doing relines, I feel it! I couldn’t imagine doing it full-time.
So get this: my drivers license expired in November and I renewed it in time but the plastic card has yet to arrive because of this endless Canada Post strike. But *of course* Instacart will not accept the paper proof of renewal and so I’ve been locked out of doing deliveries for weeks now and will be for god knows how much longer 🙃 The govt seems to be aware that delayed passports are an issue for people but no one seems to realize delayed licenses might also have consequences. Anyway, I’ll survive but all that to say I’m happy that you don’t find yourself in this weird situation as well currently and are able to pivot back to gig work on short notice. Just another small thing to be grateful for. Really happy to hear you got in to see a doctor - keep an eye on that B12, my aunt had to actually get injections to get hers up!
Oh Chris, when the car pulled up beside you, your face was a picture. I'm sorry, I laughed so hard. I'm so proud of you putting your health first. You will find a way, God will see you through.
I get Vit B12 injections. Take magnesium glycenate nightly, sleep wonderful. Take vit d3 as well. Lastly I lmao when that car pulled up next to you. So funny. I think you made the right decision girl! I'm a fellow van lifer and a ddash driver southern CA San Diego ☀️ I'm happy for you. You know what's best for you.
You go girl !! Smart decision because you gotta take care of yourself first 🙂 Pain is no fun & not good for you. Also so happy your going to be getting Medical attention & some B12 YAHOO !! Take care & please keep us posted 😉
Smile your on Chris’s Candid Camera 😂 I am happy your finally getting to see a physician. Will the doc be considered your primary doctor? Maybe, this happened for a reason.
I suppose things happen for a reason Chris. There will be something coming along your way that will work out for you. It's good to know about the b12 hopefully early so it prevents irreversible damage. And don't worry too much about you know what. I believe in you and I have enough to not have you stressed over it. If you can, good. If not, we skip 'till you can. Kay? Kay! Take care of yourself m'lady ❤
@@AFoxyMesssadly yes, after long time deficiency. most damage is at a neurological level. my therapist had it without knowing and cannot work anymore due to her symptoms. But if you're early it can help and reverse symptoms, mostly on muscle levels if I am not wrong. It's also called the silence disease because many docs still say you are fine if your levels are low normal, where in reality damage can already be done. For me it took 7y and a chance test for my absorption abilities to be tested to see I had a deficiency. my bloodlevels were low normal, not even superclose to the minimum. Somehow someone did an additional test on what is called MMA and they found it was elevated ehich meant that while my blood was technically fine, at tissuelevel I wasn't, and that is where it counts. My urologist immediately saod "ofcourse because we took that specific part if small intestine where it is absorbed into your body". Too bad they didn't remember that 7y prior when doing the surgery. I do think some of my leg issues are from that, on nervelevel. I take two injections per week and it seems to help somewhat. Not as much as I hoped but at least I won't deteriorate further. So I hope you get that supplement and you notice relief !
I am with you on this journey, shoulder pain here too! It’s getting bad 😢 I take b12 1000mg quick dissolve once a week ( bariatric patient) . I am going dr in January I’ll ask to see that type of dr 🙏I can
I am so sorry to hear that you have been in so much pain. Maybe the B12 deficiency and the inflammation explains why you have been struggling so much with the cold this winter. It's a miracle that the man told you about 'the place' just when you needed it most - and you went on a day when the doctor was there - God is looking after you. Sending you healing prayers and big hugs 🤗🤗🤗🙏🙏🙏
Sometimes we all have to come to the edge before we see God is with us. The important thing is you recognized God and were able to receive the help offered you. I am so thankful you’re beginning your hopeful healing from terrible pain. Your humor is carrying you, right along with God. B12 will probably help! I take it as well. Take good care of you.
i have chronic pain herniated disc, sciatica, shoulder pain, arthritis it comes and goes and of course it is worse in winter, i use to take tramadol which i preferred, but now i take gabapentin which makes me tired. But doctors are so stingy with pain meds nowdays because of the opiate epidemic, that people who really need it to function and go to work cannot get adequate pain relief, i have had to call in sick because of pain, if i had some codeine or hydrocodone i would have been able to go to work. It is so stupid we cannot get help
Im glade im not the only one with parking lots. IT DRIVES ME NUTS! Empty Parking lot; and they'll park RIGHT NEXT TO YOU!!!! lol.....I like to go to my local park and watch the waves roll in at the beach; and we have a HUGE parking lot; and it'll be empty; and ill be danged; someone will park RIGHT NEXT TO MY TRUCK every single time. lol.....I always just move. :D
Don't you dare beat yourself up girl! You tried it and using your wisdom you see it won't work. You do have this. We all love you so much and see what God is doing in your life. Its your faith and baby steps, one day at a time. You enjoy a peaceful and restful day. You deserve it and need it. 💝
Okay, maybe you can do a video explaining how the healthcare system works in Canada and are there safety nets in case you cannot work? Maybe a video? Just curious. Our healthcare system isn't the best in terms of we must pay for insurance, but trust me once you have it , you can see an M.D. or specialist, immediately. If one is disabled former president Roosevelt put safeguards into place that people can collect S.S based upon what they have put into the system. Im so curious...... and Im glad God is helping you. . I believe Life happens through us not , to us. Yup the Universe has been knocking at your door and you seem to be listening now! Woo hoo for you.
Chris there are different types of B12. Cyncobalamin is synthetic but the cheapest which is likely what you would buy for cost savings. Likely you need methylcobalamin or even adenylhydroxy cobalamin. Along with a rheumatoid factor would likely come the need for another type of B12. I have less common methylation pathways myself. Naproxen is a nonsteroidal antinflammatory and it is very hard on the kidneys. I would try some arnica to see if you respond to it. How does a listener order stuff on amazon for you? You are made of tuff stuff or you would not begin to be able to manage what you have. There are limits though having a body....smile.
I heard that about naproxen, I try to be mindful when taking it, only when the pain is to intense! All my links are in the description, but my list is really only a bookmark so if anyone wants to see what's in the future plans lol
Chris, sweetie, im so happy that you are dealing with your pain issues! Ive been worried about you. Im sorry, but that job was below your intellectual capacity, and just impossible for you physically. Of course, God has lead you in the right direction!!! Love you girl!!!!
Sorry you're having pain. I take B12 and I'm sure you will notice the improvement. Ginger and tumeric are cheap sources of very good inflammation fighters. You can make them into teas. Tumeric should be taken with black pepper.😊
As a chronic pain sufferer, I know how exhausting it can be, plus because of all the meds I have to take my liver isn't too happy either. You are finding a path that works for you and nobody should judge you for that. Never heard of inflamed blood before and I get blood tests on a regular basis (the vampires love me 😂).
You are right, you have to look after your health, it’s more important, you gave it a go, didn’t work out, but that’s okay, things will work out the way it’s meant too,
Someone who suffers from shoulder chronic pain,I get it. I was right about you getting blood work and something to do with your Iron being low,and reason it effecting you feeling cold. I hope you find job for you,which is best for you. I even mentioned about you getting bloodworm. I am so glad God helped you,find the right path.
@@AFoxyMesshave them look at your absorption ability too. You can take all the oral B12 but if your body can't absorb it, it's no use. The body needs to absorb it into your tissues and some conditions can cause this to become compromised, hence having a good bloodlevel but no transport between your blood into your tissues. Ask about injections, you can learn to do them yourself. It may not be necessary but it really can't hurt to ask or get it done again to be sure.
@@AFoxyMessask him if he also did the MMA or absorption test as that can make the difference between supps and injections. If you have an issue with absorption you may need injections because the supplements don't get to be absorped into your body. Also if you take a stomachprotector like omeprazole it could be the cause of the deficiency as the stomach is the first place where b12 is made ready to be metabolized. With Omeprazol and likesorted meds the stomach can't release what is called Intrinsic Factor. Just mention it :)
Please do a video (mukbang) on Old Dutch ketchup chips that apparently are sold in 7-eleven's in Canada. It appears the taste is 'out of this world'!!🫶

Welcome back! Gig work is great for our health. Be happy, don't overwork, or overstress. God provides.
It will be interesting to see how dd works with me being in the bottom 🤣

I hear ya, my friend had a huge struggle trying to get his medication due to misuse.
So sad ☹️
I take B-12. Cheap at Walmart and also you may want to try turmeric also at Walmart it’s an all natural anti inflammatory 🙏 C he is listening 👂
Turmeric, so many people mentioned that... Who knew (evidently a lot of you guys lol)

Working through the pain would have done more harm than good! It’s so hard to beat the scheduling and flexibility of gig work.

You can not put a price on health and I’m sorry you are in so much pain, but glad you are being wise. Time to take care of yourself. 😊
😊
Probably a good idea to get methylated B12. The synthetic stuff can cause more harm that good if you have MTHFR genetic defect
I believe when anybody, ( no your not old) gets older they should NOT have to live in pain. Just no way.
Glad your staying positive. All will be ok. 😊
Absolutely!!

I could try to explain in one of my videos, it's a very very broken system so it might end up just me rambling 🤣
@AFoxyMess No worries, it was just a thought.

@AFoxyMess thank you Chris. Actually that was shocking. I've never seen " socialized" anything really succeed and flourish. Canada deserves better.

Sorry you're having pain
Are there any government sponsored training programs you can use to reskill into an office based career? Maybe you could fit studying around gig work?
I'm going to look into that, tons of help now that I found *the place * lol
Fantastic. You are such a good communicator.
Chris, sweetie, im so happy that you are dealing with your pain issues! Ive been worried about you. Im sorry, but that job was below your intellectual capacity, and just impossible for you physically. Of course, God has lead you in the right direction!!! Love you girl!!!!
