Hello Doctor, more than two months ago I sustained an injury on my left wrist while trying to lift a load up. I did not even realize I had any injury, it was about few hours after I started feeling a dull pain on the wrist. I felt it was not serious, so I did not do anything, thinking it would disappear itself.

Since about two weeks now, I noticed the pain is aggravating. It usually comes with burning sensation that extends to a part of my last finger and to my arms as well. I got a neurogesic cream to massage it morning and night, but it is not getting better.

Look like there is problem with one of the nerves in my wrist, or maybe it is ligaments or tendon problem, I can't really say. But I know for a certainty it is not fracture 'cos it is not swelling.

Whatever the case maybe, how do I treat this, doctor?

Doctor, please kindly look into this issue, the wrist still aches as I type, I massaged it severally, but the burning sensation and aches still there.

What do you suggest I do, please.

Trippleblessing:
yesterday was hectic and yet I couldn't get into nimc office.
I will be trying Ikeja office, I think someone was there today from this thread

Did you get it done at Ikeja today

Hey guys, my guarantor only has international port, NIN slip, but not international port or driving license.

Can NIN slip be used in leu of National ID card?

Exmay02:


I paid online yesterday for the eport, 26k.... Use NetPostPay option. Stress free.

Aww... Thanks. That is what I later used

ohizzy:


Good morning Boss,

Please what payment operator/method did you use.

Thanks

Please, I am at the wema bank now trying to pay 25500 for the eport, the guy is telling me my application is not complete or something that it is not generating the expected whatever.

Which bank did you use to make payment?

micynute94:


Can't say o but they've been opened for more than 2 weeks now.. That I know..

I went there yesterday sef.

That is not true,. Was there on Monday, they said they are not working yet. I mean the Ikeja branch at Alausa

A2J:


How do I go about rescheduling the interview? The required docs are:

1. Application form
2. Acknowledgement form
3. Payment Receipt
4. Filled and stamp guarantors form with international port DATA page and NIN slip or Drivers licence
5. 2 port photograph (your own)
6. Photocopy of NIN slip
7. Photocopy of Birth certificate
8. Photocopy of State of Origin

Please, how do you get the acknowledgedment and guarantor form. It is not online

For some of you who need the NIN number to apply for the international port online, you can get it there on your phone so far you have your BVN. Follow the steps enumerated below:

Dial *346# ( it costs just 20 naira), it will give you your NIN. NOTE : Only use number ed with your BVN

After dialing the code and you receive DND issues, follow the step below to remove it and dial the code above again.

Text START to 2442 on your ETISALAT number that has stopped receiving Bulk SMS.

Text ALLOW to 2442 on your MTN number that has stopped receiving Bulk SMS.

Text CANCEL to 2442 on your GLO number that has stopped receiving Bulk SMS.

Text ALLOW to 2442 on your AIRTEL number that has stopped receiving Bulk SMS.

It has been discovered that MTN and AIRTEL networks have imposed DND without subscribers’ consent but you can still confirm by texting STATUS to 2442.

I am at Ikoyi port office right now. Only those who want to apply to port are allowed in. If you tell them you want to get your national ID card, they will tell you to go to another NIMC branch.


Meaning that they will allow you do your NIN if only you apply for you port directly from them.

Still trying to find my way aha. I prefer getting the NIN and then apply for the port online, rather using any agent

Exmay02:
Pls guys, is NIN registration going on during this period? Lagos to be specific.

Someone should answer this oo, a beg.

Davny:
i paid online, paid 25k for 5 years

please which of the port office in Lagos did you get yours done?

Good morning house where can I get attestation of birth and also if you have anyone that can be of an help kindly help me drop the person’s phone number thanks.

First you can get it in Surulere, Lagos. And of you want someone to get it for you, just send me a pm.

pDudd:


You will need to further your education to be able to take advantage of your Nigerian certificate. First you will need to look for a school that will accept your Nigerian certificate fully or partially. If your degree is accepted fully, you can just do a master's degree in your course of choice. If your degree is accepted partially, you may have to do additional courses to complete your degree and receive a US certificate.

I will advice you not to listen to naysayers that tell you that you Nigerian certificate is totally useless. Like I said, to make it work for you, you will still have to pursue additional certification in US to become a professional in the field you seek.

And your wife being a citizen is a huge plus because you are not an international student but a green card holder and you will be able to take advantage of certain financial aid packages the US education department offers as well as student loans.

Thanks bro this makes sense.

shariaston:


I am also doing a Masters in Education (advanced teaching techniques) online. I hope to do a PhD when I complete it next year in the USA.

Wow....that is great.. Can you message me as well, let chat

pDudd:


Let me book this space so I can answer your question.

Patiently waiting for your thought on this.

YoungIncredible:


You are right. I just completed fall 2019 and spring 2020 of my masters in the US online while waiting to migrate. I have cleared 1 out of two years for the program while still in Nigeria.

How were you able to do this? Can we talk outside this forum.. This is my WhatsApp no please. Zero nine zero three two three six nine one eight five. Thanks

pDudd:


Every qualification is better than no qualification. It is a good step.

Hey pDudd .. I am so happy you open this tread. My wife is a US citizen and I will soon start processing my visa to her.


With Master's degree in health Physics, what is my chance in the US, and if I must get US education, do you think I should start all over again or I should just build on my Nigerian certificates. What career do you think I should break into? Any prospect for a radiation and health physicist?

Thanks

Well, I think the way out is for parents to get online tutors for their kids. We have Zoom App, google class room etc for that purpose.


Kindly me for your online tutoring

Hmm..If it takes China about 5 months to restore normal life after shutting down the nation since January, how long would it take Nigeria to bring back3 normal life too?


I need an answer please

kamez:


it is senseless people like u that lead ignorant people to their graves by spreading falsehood and conspiracy theories..

when people directly related to u start dying, u will recieve sense...

out of 2388 infected persons, only 385 have been discharged and yet 85 deaths. so u imagine how many more deaths might occur. because active cases are still over 1900 .. the death rate as it stands is 22percent..


olodo

You are the Olodo here. The death rate is 85/2388= about 3.5% death rate.

The recovery rate is about 385/2388*100= I about 16%

My observation: The death rate is increasing slowly while the recovery rate is decreasing slowly in comparison to what we had at the beginning.

This is bad news. If the infection continues at this rate, we sure going experience worse case scenerio than America and Europe combined.

Ceasardgreat:


This Is currently what I am ing through.
Please can I call you on the phone directly?

OK, send me a pm, I Wii send you my no

We are almost there

Can you please assist me with the IELTS materials? am gathering materials to start preparing for mine.

It’s ielts victory!!
Prior to sitting for ielts, I had read stories about how people got 6.5 in writing and that scared me to death. How I wish I entered the exam hall an ignorant fellow. First sitting, i got all the necessary help from my colleagues at work who had aced this exam earlier. I had prepped like my life depended on it since I so much disliked essay writing back in school. For the record I work 8-8 six days a week but I had to attack this monster with every fiber of my being. I always tried to hurriedly rush home and bury my head deep into my books till midnight. Honestly I don’t think there is any youtube listening and Cambridge practice test I haven’t taken while religiously reading sample essays on ieltsmentor page. I learnt ankasa! (twi) . @Chicyclass came through for me sending me some MOD writing book and I read the book page by page! I wouldn’t be exaggerating if I mention I the sentences like a child re his favorite rhyme. I sat for the exam for the first time in July
Results : LRSW 9 7.5 7.5 6.5
Hmmm 6.5 in writing, as expected cos, I didn’t even read over my essay and I was so much gripped with fear so ... I remarked but it unfortunately returned the same. Instances like these make me wish I knew the future. I’d have saved myself the time,energy and most importantly my funds. Being someone who never threw in the towel so quickly, I ed for the next sitting in 28th September. Time to face this monster again head- on!

I saw posts about MOD being “more generous “ with their 7 than BC but I’m Ghanaian and we only have BC so I wasn’t spoilt with choices like my fellow Nigerians. Just have to return to my “dearest” BC, who haven’t in this case been so generous to its beloved.Spoke to @yemblaze who added me to an ielts WhatsApp group and @stencil also sent me ielt materials . Thank you so much ladies. I’m forever grateful. This time, I had to strategize. I decided to learn extensively for the writing so I started with synonyms of common ielts topics from a youtube page which was suggested by someone here. I also ed @blissnenye to help me with the writing and she made sure I wrote an essay everyday. “An essay a day keeps ielts failure away” lol. Like I mentioned earlier,this was almost like a punishment being meted out actually it was since I hated writing essays. I’d rather prefer reading those online but this lady, “my punisher” ensured I wrote and insisted on it. She was really bent on seeing me do something I hated. I realised It wasn’t just about the money for her but she really had my interest at heart..She tutored me for a week and told me I was good to go. Thank you my Madam @blissnenye.
So I Sat for the next sitting on 28th September and this time I wasn’t even looking forward to a better results COs since I had mixed feelings about the listening test. Results day finally came and I had LRS 9 9 7.5 and writing 6.5. Oo God! Not again! Hmmmm of course it would be writing, this devil keeps tearing its ugly head everywhere! What did I expect? I prepared so well so why 6.5 again.? What at all are they looking for?. I put in a request for remarking that same day results were released without taking my test report form. In mind, they should keep it until they gave me my 7. I prayed fervently for a positive outcome.
Then on the fateful day of 31/10/2019 , I received a mail. Behold the change I was waiting for had reflected!!! From 6.5 to 7. I was giddy with excitement. Sleep and I had conveniently become enemies that night . if this is how excited it feels to get the required ielts scores then I have not the least of ideas how you all react when you receive PPR mail.
Hope to jump, no dive into the pool and then wait for my ITA in the next draw.

Kindly help send the material to [email protected]

i finally got the required ielts scores for canada express entry in april this year at the 7th attempt. 2020 see ya in canada

Hello bro. How did you prepare for your IELT, can you please recommend materials for me.

Ladykiss:


Am getting better for real now, Wednesday I took one omeprazole and two kotase after meal. 2hours later i drank Rulox suspension, at night while going to bed i drank one cover of goya olive oil. At first i thought i want to die with the level am throwing gas out from mouth but the more i throw out gas from mouth, the more am getting a bit better.

On Thursday i decided to take one omeprazole before meal and took two kotase after meal. 2hours later i drank Rulox suspension and at night i drank one cover of goya olive oil.

I will continue the treatment for 7days to see the final result but my observation i think rulox suspension is too strong because from when i use it till like 30mins it will look as if my head want to fly out of my neck, not headache but something like my head want to fly out and again it will look like something was placed on my chest to hold me down. But after like an hour i will be fine back, above all i now sleep well and no more crazy heartburn again.

I am glad you feeling better now. If the rulox suspension is given you such a crazy feeling I think it is better you cut down on it a little bit or stop it altogether for now and focus on the other ones you are using .

I believe you will feel much better soon. Wish youvyou quick recovery and stay safe.

This is creativity in display. She is 99% safe from corona virus.

gerd can be frustrating , i just finished treating mine after several drugs without improvement i had to use garlic, ginger, tumeric and clove and I'm fine now

How did you use the combination to treat it, please explain.

Ladykiss:



Have bought the drugs.. I used one omeprazole and 2 kotase, after like 2 to 3hrs i took the rulox syrup.. I noticed am spitting out very hard color yellow mucus without me forcing it out. My stomach is still acting heavy due to that ulsakit i took yesterday but am sure it will suppress latest tomorrow. I will continue updating you, thanks.

Okay, you are welcome ..I hope you are getting better now
