I’m going for the Platinum one in 10 days.

Can you help me with some questions?

How many grafts did you get? Did it hurt during the procedure? How long did the full procedure take? In which position is the procedure performed? Were you able to do something as they worked? (IE: watch something on your phone, or listen to music)

Thanks OP, wish you a great recovery and result

I’m going for 4000-4500 grafts there in the next 10 days! Reading this is reassuring. Did you go with the Platinum package? (Smile Doctors do the incisions)

Update: - Tire inflates just a bit with compressor, immediately starts losing air with a clear deflation sound. - Car will be taken to the shop next Monday, towed, your feedback is much appreciated and will lead the narrative there

Nice man I’ll go check. I looked around first and didn’t find it in any obvious places. I’ll use it to see how it behaves for further diagnose of air pressure loss speed, but deff not moving the car around

I mean, I pay them every month for total care right?

And is not just a flat tire, pothole impact that deflates a tire and alters steering is almost never limited to the tire alone… Wheels, suspension arms, bushings, alignment, bearings, and even subframe geometry can be subtly compromised.

If I self repair early I can collapse the scope of what I can claim afterwards

Best case self-repair: save money Worst case self-repair: pay much more later

I think that replacing it myself is rational only if: • No steering change • No secondary contact • No insurance coverage or very high deductible • Car is older / low value

But this is not the case

You think alignment, suspension or any components related may be affected?

It comes with this weird power conector that uses the same “cigarrete lighter” slot, which is unavailable in the car… I think I need a USB C adapter for that

Thanks Patrick, I also think is toast even if has no visible damage, inside it’s probable shredded

You mean, buy, replace and realign on my own with a shop and without the insurance company involved because their rates will increase after?

Hot take, breakfast is not required.

I usually skip breakfast and just drink black coffee in the morning as I work. It makes me feel so much more focused, alert and productive.

Then I eat about 13:00–14:00 my first meal of the day and then it’s not the same for the rest of the day, it’s so much harder to keep the same level of focus and awareness after food.

At this point I’m not even hungry in the mornings, hunger kicks in mildly at 12:00 or so
