    Hey Jay and everyone else,
    I am excited about the new changes to the channel and hope you succeed in your endeavors.
    Personally, I had similar symptoms: I had zero energy and could fall asleep on the job, in a meeting, etc. It turned out to be sleep deprivation from sleep apnea. I suffer from severe sleep apnea, and as a result, it kept me awake all night. I was woken up from sleep 90 times a minute, which resulted in no deep sleep. That also resulted in problems oxygenating my blood, and I was seriously close to heart failure.
    I now received a CPAP machine to sleep with, and I can stay awake all day. My blood tests are better-not perfect yet, but better-and I could see results after a few nights of sleep.
    If anyone suspects that they suffer from sleep apnea, I suggest talking with your doctor. It can have serious consequences on your life if left untreated.

      I hope you stay healthy!!! And yep, me too! I have one incurable disease already, and a kind of shitty life because of it, and then: Cancer! Thank goodness for radiation, and science for that matter, and I got to be bombarded with radiation, which is something I worked with as a wave tech engineer for science for a while, making spectrometers and all kinds of custom stuff for very prestigious labs the world over. I knew what people think is kind of far out and way exaggerated (bad quantification due to large numbers meaning very little in the grand scheme of things), got blasted a few times knowing it is nowhere near as dangerous as people think, and so far so good! The tumor couldn't take it, but I sure could, I came in, laid down, held still for 5 minutes, and was done, and didn't feel a thing, and have to say was much better than loosing both upper lung lobes as the surgeon suggestedhe could remove right quick and I'd only have a 2 month recovery time, and many possible complications, my least favorite: Dying on the OR table! I was actually all into the treatment too 🤓and taught the radiologists, and radiation techs stuff about their equipment they didn't know.

    As someone who has epilepsy, being an advocate for your health is paramount. Some of the meds they can put a patient on are "broad spectrum" (ie Phenobarbital, a barbituate), and I've I told my neuro to find a better solution, which he did in the form of Keppra and Lamictal (safer, but still comes with its own set of potential problems). I get this my dude! Please continue to advocate for yourself, and stay healthy!

I was overweight at diagnosis and since then got down to ideal body weight. When I attended appointments I often got comments from nurses that my health seemed to be much improved even though the cancer was not yet eradicated. . . " you're the fittest cancer patient I've come across". . " have you been having your 5 a day?" .. yes, I had 11 for breakfast. Cancer now gone (touch wood) and I feel great.

      Been diabetic since 1999 when I was 32. Ensure you get enough exercise with whatever treatment you're taking. It helps A LOT.

    I'm very happy to hear you are getting better, I had a similar situation at the beginning of last year. I ended up spending 9 weeks in intensive care with liver failure after ignoring little signs for a long time, I am now back at work and feeling better than I have in years. A good message to all is to not ignore the little things, sometimes there is an underlying issue that can end up very serious but could have been treated easily to begin with. Can't wait to see the new studio build series.

    Gastric bypass has far too many downsides medically to be worth it for anyone. My father ended up with complications at about 12 years after gastric bypass and a duodenal switch later on. The complications and absorption difficulties of medications meant that treating him was shooting in the dark medically speaking. He ended up passing after 3 years of battling with complications. Anyone that is thinking of gastric bypass please reconsider. Even Mayo clinic in Rochester, MN has banned them due to unforeseen complications. Good luck Jay hopefully your story is better than my fathers.

    • @sirmonkey1985
      @sirmonkey1985 18 днів тому +7

      it really depends on which one you do and making sure you do the research before hand. but gastric bypass is not something you use as a cheat code for losing weight, it's a last resort after multiple years of proper diet and exercise is showing no health benefits but it's still not a guaranteed thing either. one mistake i see a lot of people make after the surgery is thinking they can continue to eat the same junk they were eating before and not taking the proper supplements to compensate for the reduced nutrient absorption. just because what you buy says it's a supplement doesn't actually mean what's on the label is actually in it since supplements are not regulated in the US. you need to heavily research that crap.
      end of the day you need to weight the risks vs the benefits, if your weight is causing medical issues that are far harder to control, e.g. family/personal history of heart problems, high blood pressure, diabetes, back issues, etc. are the potential risks from the surger later on down the road worth it over having at any moment a heart attack, stroke, crippling arthritis, etc. don't just have the surgery because you're X weight and you want to be Y weight without any of the work and see multiple specialists before you decide to do it.

    Glad you are feeling better. My mother had a stomach bypass many years ago. After abut 10 or 15 years she started feeling poorly. It turns out she wasn't absorbing nutrients properly because food was going through her intestines too quickly. They fixed the problem but the damage was done and she is still feeling the effects 20 years later.

Your PC setup videos gave me the nerve to build my own PC which actually in turn gave me the confidence to pursue a more techy path in grad school and in turn in my day job. Your videos definitely gave me the confidence I needed and my life is in an awesome place professionally and financially *knocks on wood* compared to if I’d never took the plunge and built my own PC. Just saying your entry-level videos really do some good and create value :)

    Jay, I am so happy you found the root cause of your aliments and glad you're finally on the right track.
    I cannot stress enough how important it is for people to advocate for their own health and wellbeing. No one knows your body better than you, and it is shocking how often these blood panels aren't being done by doctors. It took me 10 years to find a doctor who listened and suggested we do a full blood panel and discovered I have an immune issue causing a thyroid issue causing all my aliments.
    People wake up and fight for your own health. Especially if you're in America.

    Just to note, ferritin of 30-70 can still be iron deficiency. You want it to be minimum of 125, and keep it there for at least 6 months. So 131 is great. It’s a matter of keeping it there now. When it comes to iron, it takes the body around 3-6 months to get fully used to new ferritin levels.

      While I understand you trying to be encouraging. I'd rather he look after himself and not kill himself for UA-cam. While it'll suck and be sad when he retires from this platform it's important to allow creators to quit when they feel it's the right choice for their wellbeing. Creative burn out is rough and it's hard to keep up the online persona and be the passionate PC guy when you have no love for the job. Viewers can and will notice if a creator doesn't have their heart in it anymore. Which lowers the entertainment value.

    I have Hemochromatosis (the opposite of your issue), and my count hasn't dropped much below 1000 and as high as 2800, and that's over nearing two decades.
    Blood tests every Monday or Tuesday to get a 500ml taken every Thursday or Friday... for over 10 years.
    High iron makes organs fail if not addressed, I could (can) sleep 12 hours and go back to sleep without issue.
    It's amazing how the body needs so many things just right to function. But we need to do so little to let the body do what it needs to. (If you're lucky enough to have a fully functional body.) Eat well, sleep well, get some exercise, keep your mind active, and your systems take care of the rest.
    Take care of yourselves, everyone. ❤
