Grabbing specific reaction from embed (discord.js) - node.js

Question

So I am working on a Discord bot using discord.js and I am stumped with how I would get the reaction from a specific embed. My current reaction function looks for any check mark react and approves the next row in the database. I need it so that the row that corresponds to the embed is updated since the row will be altered whenever a check mark is added as a reaction to any message.
I have tried adding a number variable to the embed and using that as the result number however it did not work. I am very new to this (which is also why it may not be the best code you have ever seen) so I apologise in advance for anything that I may have missed/got wrong.
const timer = ms => new Promise(res => setTimeout(res, ms))
async function load () { // We need to wrap the loop into an async function for this to work
for (var i = 0; i => 0; i++) {
var sql = "SELECT * FROM shouts WHERE status = 'awaiting notification' LIMIT 1";
connection.query(sql, function (err, result) {
if (result.length > 0) {
var updatesql = "UPDATE shouts SET status = 'awaiting verification' WHERE ID = " + result[0].id
connection.query(updatesql, function (upderror, updresult) {
const uploadembed = new djs.MessageEmbed()
.setColor('#010101')
.setTitle('New Upload')
.setImage(result[0].file_link)
.addFields(
{ name: 'Name', value: result[0].file_name, inline: true },
{ name: 'Link', value: result[0].file_link, inline: true }
)
.setFooter({ text: 'Uploaded pending' })
.setTimestamp()
client.channels.fetch('855605483401773066').then(channel => channel.send({ embeds: [uploadembed] }).then(react => {
react.react("✅");
react.react("❌");
}));
})
}
})
await timer(5000); // then the created Promise can be awaited
}
}
load();
client.on('messageReactionAdd', (reaction, user) => {
var sql = "SELECT id, file_name, uploaded_on, file_link FROM shouts WHERE status = 'awaiting verification'";
connection.query(sql, function (err, result) {
if (reaction.emoji.name == '✅' && !user.bot) {
var updatesql = "UPDATE shouts SET status = 'confirmed' WHERE ID = " + result[0].id
connection.query(updatesql, function (upderror, updresult) {
const uploadembed = new djs.MessageEmbed()
.setColor('#44dd44')
.setTitle('Upload Approved')
.setImage(result[0].file_link)
.addFields(
{ name: 'Name', value: result[0].file_name, inline: true },
{ name: 'Link', value: result[0].file_link, inline: true }
)
.setFooter({ text: 'Approved by ' + user.username })
.setTimestamp()
reaction.message.edit({ embeds: [uploadembed] }).then(react => {
react.reactions.removeAll();
})
})
}
})
})```
Any help at all is greatly appreciated.
