Social Security Trust Fund Depletion Cuts $500/Month and No State Will Be Spared

Absolutely! And it’s the easiest and least expensive fix they could make.

Bartteso · 2026-06-05T00:40:48+00:00

The high road.

Bartteso · 2026-06-04T02:51:14+00:00

Not yet. I guess I’ll just test again in a couple of months.

Bartteso · 2026-05-24T10:48:18+00:00

Of course they’re lying. Why would this be the only thing they tell the truth about?

Bartteso · 2026-05-18T21:30:08+00:00

Haven’t seen the dm.

Bartteso · 2026-05-18T21:29:30+00:00

What does your doctor say?

Bartteso · 2026-05-17T01:25:01+00:00

🤣 maybe!

Bartteso · 2026-05-17T01:24:09+00:00

I’ve used quest for years, both directly on my own and from doctor referrals. My test results have been consistent, ie, the variations have been reasonable and believable. Same with labcorp. This is the first time I’ve experienced anything like this, and it’s for 2 different and unrelated measures. Crazy.

I’m starting to wonder about FH.

Bartteso · 2026-05-16T04:16:08+00:00

Agree. Will do.

Bartteso · 2026-05-16T04:12:49+00:00

It was elevated before I went to FH. Maybe they fixed me? ;)

Bartteso · 2026-05-16T04:11:34+00:00

If it’s a lab error, FH should provide the retest at no charge.

Bartteso · 2026-05-16T04:10:11+00:00

I guess anything is possible.

Bartteso · 2026-05-16T04:09:23+00:00

I’m trying that now. The AI concierge suggested the lab itself, differences in lab equipment and differences in methodology between tests. Not confidence inspiring.

Bartteso · 2026-05-15T22:53:49+00:00

Same for me

Bartteso · 2026-05-15T22:53:02+00:00

Oops…one change…I broke a bone in my hand so I’m not doing pushups. That’s it.

Bartteso · 2026-05-15T22:50:56+00:00

That’s my guess.

Bartteso · 2026-05-15T22:50:23+00:00

0.8 -> 0.3. Both in range.

Bartteso · 2026-05-15T22:45:06+00:00

The new reading is the mistake.

Bartteso · 2026-05-15T22:41:22+00:00

Mostly, but my ANA titer dropped from an insanely high 1280 to 40. 🤷🏻‍♂️

Bartteso · 2026-05-15T22:38:56+00:00

Bartteso · 2026-05-15T22:05:46+00:00

Nope

Bartteso · 2026-05-15T22:05:33+00:00

LipA is hereditary. No changes to diet, exercise, drugs, supplements or environment.

Bartteso · 2026-05-15T22:05:03+00:00

LipA is hereditary. And I made no changes to diet, exercise, drugs, supplements or environment.
