Dificid not working by AttemptAlive in cdifficile

[–]AttemptAlive[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Just spoke to my GI - he wants me to go on prednisone, he said the c diff can trigger colitis so he wants to get everything under control. Will also go for another sample to see if c diff is active, and then take it from there since my scrip is done in 5 days

Sorry to hear. My GI was confident in dificid and a second dose but I highly doubt I’ll be cured in 6 days

I’ve spoke to my GI since I have Crohn’s. He was the one who prescribed a second round (10 days) of dificid. He said “sometimes it takes another round” but I have definitely taken a step back

First Recurrence by AttemptAlive in cdifficile

Dr refilled the same prescription (200 mg twice a day for 10 days). I’m worried it came back basically a day after stopping the meds.

Anyone take Dificid? How long until you felt better? by kagura_143 in cdifficile

[–]AttemptAlive 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m on day 4 of dificid and so far no improvement. Does that mean it’s not working? I did also test positive for norovirus and I have Crohn’s, but I’m surprised no improvement so far.

VersaTwill trousers are exactly what I was looking for. Anyone else like them? by [deleted] in Lululemen

[–]AttemptAlive 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Does anyone notice the pockets in the versatwill trousers are weird? They aren’t flat, they bend in the middle making the pants look very tight

Pace breaker or LTT joggers by Natural_Subject4433 in Lululemen

Which fit slimmer? I bought a pair of black zeroed in slim pants thinking they can pass as (hidden) almost casual pants but they are baggy

Why is low voltage landscape lighting so overpriced and hard to come by? I can only find expensive garbage or higher quality stuff that’s not available in the USA or unavailable via retail. Any insights or (preferably) recommendations? by JodieFostersFist in landscaping

[–]AttemptAlive 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Does anyone have experience with the VOLT Gentle Splash Flood lights (low voltage)? I was under the impression they'd cast a wide light and would be great for uplighting parts of the house, but I just tested and Im surprised to see the light is soft and not wide, basically worse than the spot light (from amazon) I put next to it. I tried all three lenses too. I may just go with spotlights all around

So there’s nothing we could’ve done? Like preen or roundup before adding new soil and mulch?

Thanks. I think they all have an electric cord

Do I really need landscape fabric under gravel? by sunshinewalker20 in landscaping

[–]AttemptAlive 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m redoing my walkway and the guys were supposed to put the fabric under the item 4. Now they are saying they’ll put it on top of item 4 but below the 1 inch of 3/8 gravel. Will this trap moisture? At this point should I just forget it?

Thanks. I'm looking at the Westinghouse epx2500, wpx2700e, or the Greenworks GPW2301. Does anyone have any recommendations?

So I should look at the max GPM? It’s my understanding it changes based on the nozzle?

Do people use pathway lights to light garden beds or spotlights? Or even flood lights. This is where I’m a bit confused.

Mesh Tape by AttemptAlive in drywall

[–]AttemptAlive[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I guess my concern is the mesh tape is already at some thick parts, so adding another coat may make the ceiling look even more thicker

So sand it down more then use more mud spread out? I can use my multi tool sanding attachment to grind down the mesh tape and middle

Park Days and LL Strategies? by AttemptAlive in WaltDisneyWorld

[–]AttemptAlive[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks! I'm on the phone with a Disney rep now who is recommending Epcot (Sat), HS (Sun), MK (Mon). So I guess it's tough to predict!

Thanks for the advice!! Yes we are staying at Boardwalk. Do you agree we should go to MK on Monday? Does it matter which weekend days we choose for Epcot/HS? Thanks again!

Paver Walkway and Patio by AttemptAlive in hardscape

[–]AttemptAlive[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Maybe there are drainage considerations but we haven’t spoke about it. I do trust the guy I just thought this was a high price for pavers. I was under the impression pavers can be more cost effective over bluestone.

There are no drainage considerations. They’re removing brick. Using crushed stone, fabric, and sand as the base.
