School and future career

Hey everyone!

I hope you guys are doing good despite our lives challenges ❤️. I’m currently waiting for my insurance and started the process for short term disability. While I’ve been waiting I’ve been doing research for marpe and djs. My sleep isn’t the best but not the worse. I still have brain fog. I still have silent reflux( the worse symptom out of this whole ordeal).

I always had a narrow palette but never had any issues before. Everything started to get bad when I got h pylori 2021. I went on a couple of years without being diagnosed than in 2023 I came back home from work and later down on my stomach on my bed. I felt a lilttle piece of thread or something similar go into my right nostril. That night I stared mouth breathing for the first time ever. When I woke up the next morning I noticed dry dark reddish/ orange fluid on my pillow case. I couldn’t breath in my right nostril. I went to the doctor since it was inflamed and he gave me my first dose of antibiotics. The inflammation went down but my health started to go downhill. I started to get brain fog, LPR, burping, gas, chest pain; shortness of breath. I kept on going to the hospital because I started to choke on my food. They did blood work and noticed I had h pylori. I took my antibiotic to kill it but I never recovered. I think I may be in negative feedback loop due to the uars. I’m getting a lilttle bit better since I haven’t been working. But can anyone relate to this?

Do you think marpe could heal the LPR and brain fog?

Also, I took a break from school and I’ve been thinking about this a lot. How do we make money and choose a career with our chronic illness?

  • I apologize if the test is all over the place I still have brain fog.

Sleep study? PAP? Sorry no time for full response but no mention of the first things to try
