  • Can’t blame the situation on “them”. When was the last time you personally cooked some spinach? Do you have wild rice in your kitchen? How about fresh or dried fruit? Nuts?

    If you cook for yourself and make good decisions about what you eat, you will immediately lose weight, your skin will clear, your guts will start working correctly … oh … and you no longer worry about what “they” are doing to your food.


  • I found it really hard to talk about and seek treatment for this subject at the time, and I was quite aware of how sick I might be. Maybe this will help somebody. I’ve had the butt-probe three times now, and the good doctor expects me again next year. I’m totally cured. No blood no more. Let me share …

    The critical danger is polyps that grow on the lining of your intestine. They go bad and turn into cancer. Doc wants to snip them off for you. If you are 50 years old, go do that.

    The home test … If it finds any blood at all, you’ll fail the test and have to do the colonoscopy. If you’re approaching 50, you have polyps, they are bleeding, and its gonna find blood. You can waste your time with the home test or just go get checked.

    Most folks with red blood in stool probably have internal hemorrhoids. Lots of things can cause them to flare up, including drinking alcohol, spicy greasy food, and anything else that irritates your gut. This is the best-case scenario. Internal roids are fixable with a (very uncomfortable) outpatient surgery.

    The are obviously (MANY) other conditions that can go wrong there (external roids, lobsters up your butt, all sorts of stuff can happen), but these are the big things the doc says when you first talk. Roids and dangling cancer worms. Doc needs to take a look and tell you.

    And then the cure … oh ya, got the butt probe, got the roids … um … “pinned”. That lessened the bleeding but didn’t fix anything. Turns out my problem was a gut microbe imbalance, most likely brought on by some large doses of antibiotics I had to take for dental surgeries. Some righteous kimchi straight from a backyard in Korea cured me. That and a whole lot of fiber. All the time. Real fiber. Beans. Spinach. Black rice. Gotta feed them gut bugs. Or they will eat you instead.







  • Ok. Thanks for the extended perspective.

    Just today I tried to get some info from graphics stored on a lemmy server and found them to be highly anonymized. I’m gonna guess you have to engage with a potential scammer in order for them to extract data, and just viewing the message gives them nothing. Lemmy probly has security flaws, but seems well designed as far as I’ve looked.

    Ya, I getcha that if its harassment, its really weird harassment. But if its harassment of a real person out there, I certainly don’t want to be part of it. I haven’t been on lemmy very long. I’ve already tangled with one batshit crazy person. I’m fully willing to believe that more exist.
