Thanks for the video. After watching this video I decided to use a hammer and chisel first. I was surprised that the chisel cut through the plastic nut easily. The nut just splits open.

@@soluscristus1 yep, that works too. The whole idea here is that we need to think outside the box to remove them when the tabs break off or when we have no other means. I chose a drill, as it seems more people have a drill and bit than a chisel, or oscillating tool, etc.. But yes, anything that can help split the nut works great

This man is an example of what a real man looks like. A man that is suffering tremendous pain but he only wants to know is daughter feels his love. (The pillow broke my heart)! We have lost sight as a nation of what it means to be a man. Are you a man because you wear a red hat with four capital letters on it? Are you a man because you carry s gun? Or... Are you a man because you can endure tremendous pain and still want to spend time with your daughter because she is scared. I believe it is the latter and everyone who watches this man should feel humility and civility in his presence. It's lke what Christ said, "blessed are the meek, for they shall inherit the earth".

oh my oh thank God, for they being real true godly men in this world and I hope that God blesses you more and more each day I am I have been having problems since I was and I wasn’t even a teenager when it started I am I was always having trouble breathing because of asthma and but I would never feel really really well and I feel like I had gas money for breathing, my heart was just beating out of my chest and then during this process doctors didn’t believe me but during this process, I found out that I had a horrible, horrible case endometriosis when I was nine years old I was told that I would never ever have children in. That’s all I want. My whole life is to be married and have all kinds of kids God answer prayer. I have one son he’s a monster now he is 6 foot six real broad but he has to be because he has seven children after he was born. He was almost 2. I lost baby and I know you have is getting worse I bled unstop for two solid years and I was so weak. I ended up having a hysterectomy for that and of course you have the problems gone, but the pain begins because you wanted so many children and now you have no more and I’m so blessed with what I’ve got. My son was born at 6 1/2 months and he weighed over 6 pounds and he was born, of course with all the fluids and everything he went down to 4 pound and 8 ounces he’s doing so good to me over my eyes right away. God is real getting back to the being able to breathe and felt like my heart was beating on my chest getting doctors wouldn’t believe me. I did have one doctor diagnosed super super ventricular tachycardia but the medicine they gave me for that when I would go into a deep sleep I would almost flatline when I’m up and going in my heart rate would be up down under 9200. I just got on gotta find a doctor good well I went to my primary doctor. I would barely move. I felt so bad and she checked me over and I looked at her and said Dr Ladd and she said yes you are so she contacted. I am another Cardiologist he kept his office was already closed, but he came in and open that office up for me to be seen. You put me in the hospital the next day and then heart cast to check everything out and in here when he told me, he said I’m just a plumbing part of the heart and he said your plumbing is fine but your electrical shot so he sent me to another specialist for the Electrophysiology department. They had me come in the following day and I was going to put a loop monitor to see what if my heart was actually doing anything or not. I saw it in your chest. It stays there. Stay there forever and get buried with it but that way they can read it and see what’s going on. Well, it took me back to the surgery room get me already and everything. I don’t even remember I’m starting the ID yet when I came to a screaming and trying to show people off of me I had died that line I wouldn’t be there and it just just died and if you went for God for me being there when I was, I’d be six wouldn’t be able to enjoy my grandbabies or anything I’ve been gone not saying I’m 100% I got a pacemaker and a defibrillator and yes, I have been shocked by it every time I go to get a check, they say that I go in and out of the theme quite a bit, but the pacer and the helping to keep it on track you seem like nobody cared. The doctors didn’t care. I was to the point that I was thinking why should I care? I’m not gonna be here on this earth much longer to be with the family you said he already lost his dad to cancer and this was just only like secured after that I died God let me come back appreciate your testimony and everything you went through God works big miracles big miracles. He has 6 foot six for me please my back I’ve had four back surgeries. I’ve got six rods and a knee replacement, which I had to go higher and lower in the legs normally do for that I am I found out because they sent me to a specialist to go into surgery and do biopsies on my heart to see if I had the doses but thank God I didn’t, but I found that I have a severe case of heart failure so you know keep on going. I’m not gonna lay down and give up. That’s not me. Give me my can give me a walker. Give me a wheelchair if I need it I will do it. I don’t need to go to town or do anything very often because I’m afraid to drive with my the numbness the neuropathy and stuff in my feet I can’t control if I wanna let up that dirt and I’m afraid to hit somebody. He’s getting old years older than me. He turned 70 he has heart and lungs and eye problems and he’s the ones driving me, but God is good.

Bro Is teratoma dangerous?? My mother has teratoma..... I'm too worried....after ct findings?
@Teratoma-T Ай бұрын
@@rohitkumar-ph4fn not dangerous as in spreading cancer, this is a benign tumor. But in women (from what I've researched) is far more common and is usually attached near ovaries. Not a huge abnormal situation, nor terribly different than getting a historectemy for most from what I've heard. In men however, very rare, and even more rare to metastasize in the chest like mine. So I'm in very rare company with tumors like mine. Every situation is different, as would have been mine if I had found it on a CT scan or similar first. Only reason mine was found was purely God. I reccomend you see the first couple videos on my Tumor from Hell playlist if you're curious. My tumor was only discovered because I could not breathe without horrendous coughing. Nurse x-rayed for pneumonia and thought my heart was insanely enlarged. What she saw was the tumor. But yes, I went to urgent care for "bronchitis" more or less. Little did I know the tumor was massive and surgeons and doctors couldn't believe I was still alive at. That point, due to how much tumor and fluid was clamping heart and lungs and throat like a python. It's scary as hell in those kind of scenarios, every breathe is a gift because it could be the last. But normally with women it's in ovaries and no major vital organs to attach to. Luckily. I hope that or something similar (easy) is the case for your mom. None the less, surgery and cancer in general is a scary thing, so be supportive the best you can and understand that recovery can be fast, normal, or very long and drug outt like mine. 2 yrs later almost and I'm still half of what I once was. Again, mainly due to the massive physical trauma of the huge mass and surgery. Prayers for her and you. Be patient, and be positive. Those will allow you to perservere through whatever comes your way.

@@rohitkumar-ph4fn don't let the CT scare you too much. I'm not very sure of some of those terms, but that's describing the contents of the tumor,and it's position within thoracic (chest) space. Hers size is also somewhat approximate (scans get it close, but never exact) but hers sounds about 1/3rd the size mine was (it was nearly 3lbs of just tumor). I'm not sure where you're from, but from the sound of things, it could be small enough to remove it via a relatively easy VATS surgery (video assist, a few incisions between ribs). Or it may end up needing some type of open heart surgery. Sounds scary I know, but the version of open heart I had is by far the biggest incision, most painful, and I'm just not too sure if they would need to go that far for a smaller sized one. That's good news if so, because even though it's still open heart, the other incision types are much easier recovery overall. My very wise mother once said, "hope for the best, but prepare for the worst". So pray for an easy outcome, but prep yourself (at least mentally) for something more difficult. Humor helped me lighten the seriousness of the situation. Not for everyone but helped me. But honestly, I wish I had known more before this happened. I saw nothing on KZbin, internet in general that would have helped me prepare for what I was about to endure. Even just knowing that I was going to awake on a ventilator I think would have helped ease my mind when I first started waking up after resection surgery. That was awful experience, and I think knowledge would have been great power in that situation. Don't research these things to worry, do it to empower yourselves and to know what could potentially happen. I promise it will make it easier if you keep that mindset. Record doctors convos with you, it helps to remember what they said. Ask questions. Don't Google things relentlessly, it can cause anxiety thanks to situations that may not be relevant to her. I hope that some of this is helpful to you. God bless

Hey, I’ve also had some neuropathic pains in feet and hands. I never got a proper unequivocal diagnosis, despite a few tests, scans and neurologist visit. We stoped at eliminating the big stuff. A complex problem, for which not having a clear diagnosis can be a good thing, because some of them are nasty illness. So I’ve used Palmitoylethanolamide (PEA), a fatty acid amide which has anti inflammation, anti nerve pain properties. Things have improved massively with time. To be honest, I’m unable to say its because of PEA or in spite of it, but it didn’t hurt. I’ve heard cancer patients, with post-chemo neuropathic pains also take it. Maybe you want to check it out, seems rather natural, over the counter stuff. As for vit D, I think no matter what, it’s super important to have good levels and definitely not enough people care for it. From what I gather, chronic deficiency has potentially huge implications for some serious diseases, which we don’t necessarily understand yet.

Thanks for the info, have you ever used Tumeric for inflammation? I Couldn't agree more about Vit. D. It wasn't even something that had ever crossed my mind. So many food labels brag about high vitamin content, or 100% of daily value blah blah. So it's like you think you're getting what's needed, but I've been looking for D on labels and not finding it. Most is A-C (and is probably synthetic which is not ideal). Either way.... It AMAZED me the symptoms people were reporting having with D Deficiency, and improvement when sticking with supplementation. Everything from psychiatric behaviours to physical pains, sweating of only certain body parts (usually the head), insomnia, etc... it was unreal. But, I'm no longer surprised. Just like oxygen, it's an essential compound for human body so no surprise it can cause chaos when levels are off. I'm not trying to blame all my issues on Vit D, but that's something that really jumped out on the labs, and last I checked 2+2 still = 4, so we shall see what happens in the coming weeks / months as I heavily supplement. To be continued..... Thanks for watching and writing!

Totally agreed. Vit D is also related with the immune system and by extension with auto-immune diseases. And there are many. I’m trying to stick to around 3000iu daily, preferably taken with food which has some fats in it because it’s fat soluble, for good absorption. Some people recommend even 5000iu. I also don’t stop taking it in the summer, as the sun is just not enough and increasing sun increases skin cancer risk. Tough navigation. Also magnesium helps to activate it. I’ve heard about turmeric and its benefits but never tried it personally. I’m trying not to get overwhelmed with supplementation as it gives impression of being sick when it’s not necessarily the case. Good diet is probably the most important base.

That's what I aim for, mainly dietary means. But I'll be doing short little clips of my findings with foods, and nutritional content in the coming days / weeks. Tonight should be one with a few juices / milk I encountered in the grocery. What I'm beginning to see is shocking to say the least, and not in a good way. Good info on dosing. Some Docs seem to demonize that level of Vit. D, which I largely understand as false (natural / pre-existing cheap vitamins and meds is not good for pharma profits when a Rx can be sold for many times the cost).

I used a flathead, penetrating oil, a rubber mallet, and probably a few months off the remaining life of my shoulder socket trying to get this loose. Thank you for this - popped the sucker off and replaced it for $1.50 at Home Depot.

I always enjoy your updates. You survived a literal battle. It’s only normal to have some PTSD from that. Just wanting to share your insight and your great suggestions shows that you are dealing very well with the mental side of your ordeal. Good health to you!

Thank you, that sure means a lot to me. And thank you for returning and making it through another update. Believe me when I say, I know this is pure amateur level and not always the best pit together or thought out, but is a learning opportunity for me as well as who may come across this in the future. Your and others watching, commenting, subscribing, etc is totally keeping the videos alive, if not for you the content gets buried and nobody ever sees it. Shame on me for taking so much time away, it really hurt the growth because hardly anyone watches these any longer, but my mission remains the same. My goal and intent is for this to one day help someone. I found absolutely nothing online about this cancer before my procedures, and I sure wish I knew some things ahead of time. Anyways, as I said and will continue to say; THANK YOU! I really truly appreciate you spending a few min of your valuable time here.

It's the same when someone close to you dies,It's surreal seeing life around you go on as usual, and you are grieving. Cancer can come from nowhere, so hopefully, yours is just that and not heridetary, that happened to my sister, its not in our family at all but she got it, she is fine now. Hope your blood is fine.

@@pam164 I didn't have that same feeling when it comes to a loved ones death, but I've also been very lucky to not have to experience that very often. I totally see how that's possible. Any type of thing that leaves you feeling isolated / disconnected to the world around you can do it. Is good to recognize that, because not doing so and experiencing that could easily lead into bigger issues no doubt.

@Teratoma-T I lost both my parents at 18, so it was a huge huge loss. Life is so unfair at times.
@Teratoma-T 2 ай бұрын
It certainly is! It especially seems most unfair to decent people. But I'm absolutely of the mentality that we face trials abd struggles for a purpose that is meant for good. What you make it through certainly strengthens you, and I think we're meant to share with others our experiences and lessons learned. Like myself, I would not want to endure this again, but I'm thankful that I did in many ways. My outlook on life has dramatically changed as a result of this, priorities change, and I think they're all for the better.
