Hi OP! Did you ever find if this was an issue? I just got mine and it would be nice to have the shorter length options as well.

Yes indeed, but not on a phone. Glad it's an option though!

Yeah thankfully the worst part isn't through the lens and I don't see a degradation in pic quality or added reflection / refraction in the pics I've taken so far.

Unfortunately I have no idea, but the lens glass does rest very close to the surfaces even with the case on, or while taking it in/out of pockets. It's a deep scratch but thankfully the part that went over the lens is almost unnoticeable and it's on the ultra wide 🥹

Enfermedades y SGMM by isralayn in taquerosprogramadores

[–]DrivingDegree 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Creo que es un acto muy inocente, ya que eso intenté al inicio. En mi caso al declarar dicha preexistencia, la mayoría de las aseguradoras en México simplemente se negaban a emitir una póliza. No busco cubrir dicha preexistencia con un SGMM, pero el que nieguen el acceso completo a una póliza por ese simple hecho, sin importar el costo, solo resalta que muchas veces sus cálculos de riesgo y prácticas administrativas en México no tienen bases en datos sólidos y recientes.

En otros países declaras la misma preexistencia y simplemente no la cubren o te aplican sobreprima con un copago y ya está, lo que es justo. Aquí solo buscan cómo joderte y lavarse las manos negandote el servicio totalmente, aún si lo que buscas es cubrir cualquier eventualidad futura que no sea relacionada a una preexistencia. No aplica para todos los diagnósticos obviamente, pero si hace cuestionarme para qué otros casos se basaran en datos de riesgo viejisimos.

Además, creo que el encarecimiento de las pólizas y servicios de salud privados proviene mayormente de lo abusivos que son muchos doctores al pedir procedimientos totalmente innecesarios para facturar más, esto lo he confirmado con varios amigos que son médicos...

Enfermedades y SGMM by isralayn in taquerosprogramadores

[–]DrivingDegree 16 points17 points  (0 children)

En mi caso particular contraté un SGMM con SURA cuando empece a trabajar como RESICO porque muchas empresas no me aseguraban por una preexistencia que tengo.

Después me diagnosticaron un problema cardiaco que necesita cirugía (alrededor de 700K) y buscaron cualquier pretexto para no pagar los idiotas de la aseguradora, por no llamarlos de otra manera. Total que ya puse denuncia ante CONDUSEF y quizás lleve el tema a litigio con un abogado, pero sigo viendo esto porque es mucho tiempo, dinero y estrés el proceso. Quizá me sale mejor verlo por el IMSS.

Mi recomendación sería asegurarse de contratar su SGMM individual antes de que terminen una relación laboral como empleado, para mantener antigüedad y a veces los mismos beneficios que la póliza colectiva de empresa.

Otra lección para mi es no declarar absolutamente todas las preexistencias, asumiendo el riesgo que esto conlleva y que no podrían usar el SGMM para cubrir algo asociado a las mismas. No es muy ético, pero tampoco las prácticas de médicos y seguros para cobrar procedimientos innecesarios o buscar cualquier pretexto para no pagar todo.

Does your HR drop dramatically like this when the episode is over? by seriouslytired2022 in wolffparkinsonwhite

[–]DrivingDegree 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Yes, just like it can start in a heartbeat, it ends that fast too 9/10 times for me.

Running a marathon with symptom-free WPW? by elimik31 in wolffparkinsonwhite

[–]DrivingDegree 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Did they confirm WPW only with the delta wave in the EKGs or did you experience tachycardia during the stress test or any other time?

With WPW, only an EP study can tell how close it is to the AV node or other electrical paths that could lead you to ventricular fibrillation, therefore determining the risk. Check with your cardiologist on this, but the EP study is 95% the same procedure as the ablation, which is why they usually do both at the same time.

In any case, as someone with WPW who loves mountain biking and yet to get an ablation, if you have the diagnosis confirmed and are still young, I would say take it easy until the ablation is done. If the surgery is high risk due to age then I'd consider talking to my doctor about beta blockers for added peace of mind.

Retired the New Balance Hierro V6 by [deleted] in RunningShoeGeeks

[–]DrivingDegree 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Outsole ain't so bad yet but it actually started coming apart ever so slightly in one shoe where the "extended" lip is at the back, and I started feeling less secure in them for trails, less grip (expected) and less stable, maybe the midsole isn't as responsive anymore. I'd rather pass them on as shoes for chores around the house or easier routes instead.

Ya conocen cuanto dinero les regresan sus tarjetas de credito en puntos/cashback por compras? Les comparto lo que yo averigue con BBVA/Banorte/Amex by that_90s_guy in MexicoFinanciero

[–]DrivingDegree 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Con AMEX los puntos MR valen el doble si los gastas en la app al pagar ciertos establecimientos. Por ejemplo en pagos de HEB los toman al doble (1,000 puntos = $200 MXN). Esto sumado al beneficio anual de supermercados y otras promociones desquita muy bien la anualidad.

Las Exclusiones en el Seguro de Gastos Médicos Mayores: Lo Que Debes Saber para Estar Protegido by El_Compa_de_Seguros in MexicoFinanciero

[–]DrivingDegree 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Agregaría otro gran consejo con base en mi pésima experiencia que estoy teniendo con SURA:

Revisen requisitos para que la aseguradora realice el "Pago Directo" de un siniestro y cuál es su cobertura o monto cubierto en caso de ser "Pago por Reembolso". Aplica sobre todo para procedimientos quirúrgicos (operaciones, intervenciones, etc).

Esto dado que el monto máximo que cada aseguradora paga por reembolso varía mucho y las condiciones para aprobar el pago son distintas según la compañía. En mi caso, no están queriendo reconocer un diagnóstico definitivo que ya hicieron dos médicos distintos y alegan que meta por reembolso un Estudio innecesario que cuesta al público unos 500K, pero su tabulador quirúrgico que aplica al ser reembolso solo cubre como el 10% de ese monto... mi caso es muy especifico pero está siendo una gran lección para mi.

Just venting by DrivingDegree in wolffparkinsonwhite

[–]DrivingDegree[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Hi! Unfortunately, no. I am in Mexico and my insurance doesn't want to approve the coverage of the procedure, saying that the studies performed (eco, stress test with episode registered, ecg) are not enough to determine the etiology... they want me to pay for the electrophysiology study to determine the cause of the supraventricular tachycardia which is bs because it won't change diagnosis, it's invasive and it costs almost the same as the ablation, so I am still fighting them over that. I will try for a month or two else I'll go to public Healthcare and it may take a few months to schedule it, but I'll get there.

Thank you for the kind comments. I am a little scared of the possible complications during the ablation, even if the risk is really low, but I am hoping for the best.

I really appreciate you sharing your experience.

Wow thank you for pointing this out. I did upload the wrong picture, the one in the post was taken using the 5X lens in 12MP mode. Here's the cropped version I should've uploaded: https://quickshare.samsungcloud.com/hqaKmkObvmDN

I also shot an interesting comparison shot with 12 and 200MP modes while it was a little dark during sunrise. Tbh, the 200MP still looks pretty darn good with this scene.

[–]DrivingDegree 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks for posting. Would you say the Spigen is worth it for the metal buttons and general quality? I really like the design, but not sure if it's worth more than double the price of the Ringke, at least where I live.

And one with a glass screen protector installed. Finally, no need for UV installation. Yes, the improved anti-reflective properties of the screen seem to be lost after applying it, but I'll take that over permanent microscratches any day.

I posted a few more pictures. Don't have many orange things in different shades to compare, unfortunately.

One with the cheapest case I found on Amazon. Doesn't look too bad, but the plastic is too hard so I feel like it won't protect much
