This is EXACTLY why I don’t trust drs. I am so glad you found an answer or at least hope so. I believe you have to be your own advocate. Only you know what’s wrong with your body. It’s crazy how these medical professionals spend thousands of dollars to go to school and they act clueless after graduation. And this is what we pay millions for? Completely mind blowing and insane. I have been a fan of yours for over 5 years and you have been through a lot. I hope your wedding is beautiful and epic! You and Ashley definitely deserve this! ❤❤ So proud of you!

Glad you finally got answers! It's crazy how people can be sick for so long because it went overlooked or dismissed by doctor after doctor, only to find a cure relatively quickly when they find one that has the answers. I am not a medical expert by any means, but I have heard some doctors complain about other physicians not sharing their case studies, so that's probably why this tends to happen.

Glad you're better and I can relate. Dealt with severe, chronic muscle tightness and spasms for years which multiple doctors couldn't diagnose. Weight training ended up saving me. NJ all day, stay strong.

I am so grateful that you were able to finally find out whst is wrong. I understand with beginning your biggest advocate. As someone who has had open heart surgery, I had to fight for the care I received. Some nurses just didn't care it took my mother to tell them to get me pain medication after not responding to the pain call. It is ridiculous how medical care can be flipped just so we can get help.

I can absolutely relate to you. Over the last few years I've felt very achey, tired and my heart has been very fast and learnt I had POTS last year. Now it's finally being treated. I hope you get better man. You've come this far and haven't stopped fighting for your health. Even when it's been tough, you've kept making your art. ❤❤❤

I’m glad you found this out, hopefully this is the problem and your health can be back in check. The movie should be your least priority right now, good thing your health will be better. Doctors don’t seem to be doing much help for anything nowadays… or this past few years

Same thing happened to me mate. Been on PPI’s for 6 months and been having intense stabbing pain in my stomach. The VERY first time I went to the doctor’s, they already did a mistake. They should have done a urea breath test to check for H. pylori, but they did not. And of course, I was not well informed back then to ask for it myself. As soon as you start PPI’s, H. pylori becomes undetectable. I FINALLY had a gastroscopy last week and I’m awaiting the test results — I’m 99% sure I have a H. pylori infection, even though the doctors are constantly denying it. It’s crazy that something so EASILY testable and so EASILY treatable is being pushed back MONTHS AND MONTHS, even YEARS for some people, having to endure this unnecessary pain. It feels like I’ve thrown away 6 months of my life — not being able to eat regular food, drink with my friends or do any kind of physical exercise. Really sucks.

Im not religious but god is on your side man. I grew up with your channel watching the psycho series as if it was real. You have literally saved lives of some lonely gamers out there. You really are blessed to be able to change a persons outlook on life, and those blessings will carry you through this. Best wishes to the psycho family😂

This is the exact reason why I never go to a doctor for anything, none of them know what the hell they're doing.

I loved your videos throughout middle school and early high school. I watched from midway through the psycho series all the way to the devil inside (I also really loved). You really inspired me when it comes to how to tell stories and the unique ways they can be told. I wish you nothing but the best Jesse. Good luck to you and I hope everyone can be there for you as well ❤

That's exactly why I constantly bike over steep hills and nearly experience heart attacks, my guy. I'm exercising to stay healthy. Wish you luck.

Last week after a series of tests, I came up POSITIVE for H Pylori.
H Pylori is a bacterial infection that leads to ulcers. If left untreated, it can lead to a host of health issues which include internal bleeding, cancer and even death.
How did this happen?
My theory is that in Fall 2023 when I came down with Covid that it disrupted my immune system enough to let this H Pylori bacteria run rampant.
Over a short period of time, H Pylori started carving out holes in my small intestine prompting my excruciating ER visit.
My stool was black and the doctors failed to diagnose me despite seeing some inflammation in my bowels. My heart rate was erratic, fast and even skipping.
I was losing consciousness regularly.
Over the next 18 months, I’d be mostly bed-ridden and unable to eat.
I lost 20% of my body weight and went through a battery of tests.
I saw close to 10 different doctors of different specialities and ALL OF THEM dismissed my concerns regarding ulcers and H Pylori…
They kept insisting that my symptoms wouldn’t be that severe…
It is pathetic that I had so many scans, tests and even surgical procedures to diagnose this issue…
H Pylori was the very first thing I suspected, even AI backed me up.
Yet, the docs were reluctant. How could they completely ignore all of the signs?!
I finally demanded an H Pylori breath test and paid out-of-pocket.
It literally takes a couple minutes and you breathe into a bag.
The fact that this simple test could’ve been done 18 months ago before so many other invasive things is fucking absurd.
Needless to say, I’m grateful that I never stopped pushing for my health.
You HAVE to be your own biggest advocate, you absolutely cannot rely on the doctors to solve your issues.
Do not accept the medical gas-lighting and mis-guided prescriptions.
Fact-check everything.
I’m currently halfway through my 14-day quadruple antibiotic therapy that should clear this bacterial infection.
I can’t believe I finally have some confirmation of a diagnosis. It’s possible that I may finally be back to normal after all of this time.
I can’t believe it. 🥹
It’s just crazy because I got this diagnosis within minutes of clicking “send” on the movie. Either that’s a massive coincidence or maybe it was the plan all along.
I’m just happy to have some hope.
Thank you to everyone who has been there during the hardest 2 years of my life.
I can finally see a day where I’m healthy again and making videos.
The movie comes out and I can say that it was all worth it.
It’s crazy how different your view on life can be when you lose your health, I will never that for granted ever again.
For all of those in the Long Covid community, thank you so much for your support during this time.
Perhaps some of you also may have bacterial infections in your gut? Definitely worth it to get checked.
It’s crazy how many different manifestations can develop after sickness.
I’ll keep you guys posted on how the rest of treatment goes. It’s a miserable hell of black diarrhea, nausea and fatigue.
Just nuking my entire system.
Hopefully this is the end of me bitching and moaning about “my spleen” lol. iykyk
Love you guys to death! & stay healthy. ❤️
