Autos / Re: Catalytic Converter Problems? Cheap Solution by braveheart77: 5:57pm On Feb 19, 2022
ayodurodola:
Installed the device on a Lexus GX 470....
ERROR CODES CLEARED.
NO ABNORMAL NOISE EITHER.
Still monitoring fuel consumption though.

How is the fuel consumption?

My catalyst got stolen but I don’t understand if this device does the job of a catalyst or merely tricks the engine to generate no error code

cardoctor:
Good stuff but you can only carry out these procedures if you still have a cat in your exhaust system as most cars that have come into my workshop with emission related issues have had the cats gutted out from the casing.

I just had a 2008 Honda accord come in last week with the same p0420 code and on further investigation discovered that all the catalytic converters have been cleverly removed making the car less fuel efficient and the sound from the exhaust very hollow.

I must advise that you check your car's cat before leaving it for too long at a mechanic workshop.

How do me as a non mechanic know if the CAT is there or not. A mechanic just told me mine is missing after scanning the car which shows code p0420.

Basically how can i know if my car has been tampered with at any point
Business / Re: Flutterwave Triples Valuation To Over $3 Billion In A Year, Raises $250 Million by braveheart77: 1:01pm On Feb 16, 2022
SmartPolician:
Even though I don't understand what an African unicorn is still raising funds for when they can grow organically, I still have to hail them. Growth should be planned so it can be managed effectively. Congratulations, Flutterwave!

Other tech experts should try other areas because fintech is already saturated. Someone should try agriculture - use tech to check the increasing cost of agric produce.

How about Lagos traffic? Can we build a tech-powered system that can improve the situation?

There are many problems we can solve with tech. It's either our people are not creative enough or we aren't just thinking.

Tech can only help with intelligence and efficiency (which is what google map is doing).

The cause of the traffic is mainly bad road/road networks. That needs to be build by government.

But curved dixk is celebrated in Nigeria.

Not every curved d is caused by scar tissue (like peyronies).

If it is caused by scar tissue it mostly comes with erectile dysfunction which makes it more depressing. You can understand why a young boy with ED will want to take his life because being a Man is ruined from a young age.

Peyronies at such a young age is very depressing truly.

However there are treatment options:

Michael547:


For the check and vsc lights, you would have to run a scan to be sure of the codes behind them.

But I doubt if they are the cause of your cars vibration when idle...all you should do first to rectify the vibration is take your car to a good mechanic that will just clean the throttle body with an injection cleaner...j believe that should fix the vibration and RPM problem.

Thanks

Health / Re: Having A Heart Problem At The Age Of 28.. I Need Help And Advice by braveheart77: 2:45am On Jan 14, 2022
Jackandrose:
Good day nairalanders

i've been living under the fear of having a heart problem for more than five years, but my people refused that i should go for scan probably because of fear that it might be true, and there won't be money to care/treat it..

Even me, i'm afraid to go for scan, because the moment it is comfirmed to me, i don't kno if i would be able to live with it..

i can't run nor do hard work, my pulse is always high and sometimes my breathing stop totally.. I've fainted multiple times, and i've been living under depression for so long..

Now, this symptoms is increasing on daily basis, but my people dosn't want me to go for scan.. Is like they already knows the result will turn out positive.

But what if i go for scan an the result shows that i have a heart probem, how will i be able to live with it, knowing fully very well that we don't have the money to cure it..

I don't kno what to do nairalanders, i need advice..

You’re not serious if you haven’t done the test.

GERD, poor posture, chronic anxiety etc can also cause those symptoms.

Just do ECO or ECG to confirm heart integrity

Thanks.. I will stop the omeprazole 4 to 8weeks and only use like once in 2weeks to recover fully. Am still looking for nexium omeprazole, I will prefer it to Meprasil omeprazole.
Somehow am feeling dry throat, guess the wound is healing or am reacting to one of the medicine. I guess the vomiting control tab but my vomiting as stopped. No more vomiting, I will use this morning and night, then stop using.

Just use omeprazole with prescription, there is a risk i think with just stopping all of a sudden.

Also it builds up slowly in your system, so its not something to take once in two weeks.

No more votiming may suggest your LES is stronger now and prevents reflux

Please kindly explain the lying down part for me, what and what should I be careful about?

Anything that makes the LES relax is a no no. E.g alchol, pepper, etc.

An inverted position or lying down makes acid flow easily to the LES

I went to big pharmacy this evening, luckily I met a good Doctor there who was calm to listen to all my research. I explained everything have used in the past, all the test I Google and end up doing, the result and all. I told him have used omeprazole in the past but the symptoms keep coming back after some months. Just as suspected, half treatment was the issue. Now I will have to use omeprazole for a month non stop, gaviscon, kotase tab for a week, Domperidone 10mg for few days to control my vomiting.

I did my research now and discovered Meprasil omeprazole works for erosive esophagitis truly. I will try and complete this dose this time.

Researching online now, I will have to use the Meprasil omeprazole for 4 to 8weeks non stop, one tab morning and one tab at night, 30mins before eating. Gaviscon morning, afternoon and night like 2hrs after eating. Domperidone one tab morning and one at night for few days to stop vomiting. Kotase tab 2 tablet morning and 2tablet at night for a week to heal the inner wound. I pray this work for me

Yeah you should get better but also make the necessary lifestyle changes.

Also be careful about long term use of PPI.

How is your health now?

Overtime the lower esophagus spinster should heal if you avoid acidic foods and be careful when you lay down after eating.

Unfortunately healing hasn’t been permanent for me and i get symptoms when i do something to yhe extreme (like taking vodka or strong drink, excess pepper or anything that can hurt the LES)

Health / Re: Help Me With Rectal Prolapse by braveheart77: 11:15am On Jan 09, 2022
OneCorner:
I have no solution than to wish you well
That’s if you’re not gay

Educate yourself! Prolapse is caused by a medical condition where the pelvic floor muscles and ligaments get weaken due to several factors (mostly pregnancy and constipation or other forms of straining).

This has nothing to do with being gay!!

The gay guys sometimes do rosebudding and for them its not even a medical condition because they can get the “prolapse” back in easily. Theirs happen because their pelvic floor is very strong and they then over relax their anal sphincter.

Please let’s research before judging people. Anyone can have an accident that triggers a prolapse.

Health / Help Me With Rectal Prolapse by braveheart77: 7:55am On Jan 05, 2022
I have an internal prolapse that causes me constipation and incomplete evacuation (my sexual function is also affected).

This started after i wrongly did an intense abs exercise not knowing I already have a weak pelvic floor. I started to notice something heavy in my rectum and difficulty passing stool.

I met a pelvic floor physical therapist that told me to do some kegel exercises to strengthen back the muscles and i saw some improvements; however i played football one day and noticed i started to have the same feeling of bulge and constipation which made me realize the prolapse is back. (Apparently I shouldn’t have started any exercise or lifting yet)

I have tried doing the kegels again but it doesn’t seem to be solving the problem this time.

I hear surgeries for this are not advisable and only for extreme cases but unfortunately that is what a doctor said i may need.

Is there any solution that can help me with this?

Ps: prolapse is different from hemorrhoids/pile

Could be anal prolapse.

Do you have some stains or wetness around your anus when you wear briefs?
I can advise you do hot water therapy for a start.

Water and salt then seat on it.
Also, get Honey and mix it with lime.
After these processes….

Get Pilex take it.
You will be fine. You can PM me for more assistance if you wish. All the best.

Alphagan:
You need to visit hospital again and request for rectal inspection. I doubt if it's a case of hemorrhoid, rectal prolapse is what I'm suspecting.

It is nothing to worry about, for the time being, take stool softener and something for the pain. Your Doc. will help you to push it inside and a Thiersch would be done.

I also have one.

I hear most surgeries are not successful and the prolapse repeats itself.

Savings is fine but a whole year to raise what you call bulk money is not the best. Perhaps monthly will be decent enough

Those are management fees really and its normal to get normal charges.

This nigga paid 15k for his own management fee, will gtb charge up to that? Also he is without insurance and risks huge loss. There’s also opportunity cost being interest lost on investment.

Savings is good but investment is better.
