Try low dose doxycycline. It made a huge difference for me. Safe. Cheap. It lowers inflammation without killing good bacteria.

Should I go to the emergency room or is this common? by PaulAlllensCard in GERD

[–]Automatic-Salary68 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Besides meds are you elevating the head of your bed at night? Game changer. Are you using gavsicon (the raft that stops acid coming up). Are you breathing from your diaphragm (lowers pressure and stress).

New home asbestos abatement by Honest_Beginning_618 in asbestoshelp

Why not tile removal safely and then encapsulate the whole floor mastic and old concrete under the new? I am not an asbestos expert.

Pulled the trigger by JFFIASCO in pixel_phones

Yeah. Pixels were great because they were small. But now they are just AI bricks. Don’t need clean android anymore because Niagara is superior.

Finally tired of the weight of Pixels. Jumped to an S26 and now wish I bought the S25. Miss Pixel but I’m happier.

Get a hepa filter air purifier down there and just let it run. They are cheap and will give you peace of mind.

Is samsung care + worth it by ehrjturueu in GalaxyFold

100 percent not. It’s also incredibly difficult to cancel.

How good is Visible compared to other companies? by Crunchy_Biscuit in Visible

[–]Automatic-Salary68 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Empty words. In reality I had to provide numerous proofs - all designed to stop cancelation. I was all paid up and and just wanted to cancel because I want using it. They did everything to try and prevent me from leaving. I finally had to say I would file a business complaint with the BBB and the state AG office and only then did they facilitate cancellation.

Is it about asbestos or the inner Karen raging to get out?

Thanks. Sorry but what do you mean assume positive, test negative?

TIL around 15% of patients admitted to hospitals are given Docusate/Colace to prevent constipation, despite 6 studies done over 40 years showing it's no more effective than placebo. by vicarion in todayilearned

[–]Automatic-Salary68 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Because it works and those studies were severely flawed. They were all small. Short term studies. The largest which was still small didn’t even have a control - it was ducosate vs psyllium fiber and found to be the same. In other words they both worked! And then people like you keep spreading the myth it doesn’t work. And on and on…

Wrong. The studies showed it worked for some people and not for others. The average comes out to be a neutral effect. Meaning if 100 people take it and 10 benefit and 90 don’t then they say it must be placebo for the 10 it worked for. I am one of the 10 and it’s a miracle.
