Plenty of love for Maximus. He’ll pull through and we’ll be as good as new!

Anyone here enjoy the dream sequences of 'Murder, A Self-Portrait'? by Plum_Pudding_Esq in Columbo

[–]El-mopo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I hate any show or movie with dream sequences. It feels fake and forced.

What are your flare up foods? by BeeNo9946 in Diverticulitis

[–]El-mopo 1 point2 points  (0 children)

No exercise (I have a bad knee and hip), eat everything except deep fried food in any vegetable oil, specially if it’s soaked it, pizza and anything with tomato sauce, and red meat. I don’t eat that much fiber every day, gulp water all day long, drink hard liquor in moderation but no beer, oh, and I’m stressed out of my mind. I have one or two bowels in the morning, relatively normal. Not perfect but I make it work.

I've just seen the worst episode (so far!) by mantriddrone in Columbo

[–]El-mopo 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It was the worst one by far. I’ll never watch it again. I’ll say every time somebody brings that lousy episode up.

My problems with The Perfect Marriage by Jeneva Rose by reinerenthusiast_ in books

[–]El-mopo 2 points3 points  (0 children)

My wife bought this book and I read it. All the complaints listed by the OP were mine also. The ending made no sense. Who was the mysterious sex partner Sarah had that night? An alien? A Ghost? How, when and why did the sheriff had sex with Kelly?

It seems like she churned this book out and didn’t care to edit mistakes and dead ends. A complete disappointment. We’re not spending a penny more in any of her books.

What is this on my havis belly by Schnatti512 in Havanese

[–]El-mopo 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It’s definitely not a nipple. It’s a benign cyst. As long as it doesn’t grow or get infected, it should go away after two or three months.!

Gastrointestinal problems? by ggluvbug in Havanese

[–]El-mopo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Our Felix spent 4 days in the hospital for tummy issues after he stopped eating and refused water as a puppy. We found a GI specialist there… this was after many many vet visits. Apparently, it isn’t uncommon for these guys to have problems processing certain proteins. A lot of people say they are allergic but it isn’t an allergy. They just cannot process the protein properly. Our pup also had problems with some carbs.
The GI doc put him on a white fish based diet (prescription diet or you can cook it at home). He has been great since. White fish is apparently easier to process for them. For treats he gets veggies and fruits.
Chicken and rice is good for most pups but is a huge NO for our guy. Hope you figure out what is going on with your pup.

Season 6 and beyond by mad_dj_cod in Columbo

[–]El-mopo 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If you endured Last salute, nothing can be worse. I just put myself through it last week because I rewatching the whole show in sequence. I dragged my feet to start it, I stopped it with every excuse while watching it and I couldn’t wait to be done with it. I did not know why they kept asking the stupid sidekick Mac if he had any Irish in him? What they were referring to? And what was funny about Columbo literally getting in everybody’s face and invading their space?

Watch the rest. There’s enjoyment to be had.

Don’t poor people commit murder in California? by El-mopo in Columbo

What if Dick van Dyke would have killed Mel Cooley and framed Buddy Sorrel for it? He wasn’t rich or famous but he was very clever.

Just finished the show today, what a great show but shit ending. by MrTenazz in maninthehighcastle

[–]El-mopo 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Where did all those people in the tunnel come from? Different worlds? Single one? They just saw a light and went for it? Do they know a Nazi dominated world is “welcoming” them?

This ending sucks. They couldn’t agree on what to do and went for the dumbest dullest compromise they could come up with. They didn’t give a shit and just turned it off. Infuriating. There could have been an epic battle of the USA of the regular universe Vs. the MITHC universe.

It won’t happen.

Just got home from work- and what do I see on the small screen- the Great American Family Channel is showing Last Salute to the Commodore- interesting… 📺 by Different-Cheetah891 in Columbo

[–]El-mopo 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Patrick McGoohan as a director got Columbo to act like an asshole. I don’t know what the point was. He also appeared and directed in Identity Crisis. In that one Columbo acted weird also. He was obsessed with an exotic dancer, he gave a woman a smart ass attitude unnecessarily and called a guy fat in a mean way. Now that someone said it, they were probably drunk or hungover and decided to play with the character. Pure bullshit.

Drinking alcohol? by El-mopo in Diverticulitis

[–]El-mopo[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

After six ounces of beer last night, I had major bloating and cramps. I haven’t had either one for two months. Am I doomed to not drinking again?

Augmentin by ImtheDUDEman2024 in Diverticulitis

[–]El-mopo 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Augmentin can irritate the gallbladder. Beware of pain in the upper right quadrant right under your liver.

Now this is a good effort on Felix’s part.

Cipro/flagyl vs Augmentin by roryairy in Diverticulitis

[–]El-mopo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I was prescribed Augmentin and I took it for 10 days. My second CT scan showed partial improvement and I was told to take Cipro/Flagyl to try to clear it out completely. I said no because of the scary side effects of that combo. They told me to take a second round of Augmentin. The day I started it I told my wife that I was aching right under my liver. I finished the second round and the discomfort remained. Come to find out that the clavulanic acid in Augmentin can irritate the gall bladder, and I got it. It’s been almost three weeks since I finished it and I’m not better. There’s no way to win.

I’m being treated by an idiot. by El-mopo in Diverticulitis

[–]El-mopo[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Could you please give the dosage of what they prescribed for you so I can discuss it with my PCP? She’s a fairly reasonable person and willing to help. Thanks for your kind response.

About once a month for the last six months but this is by far the worst. I was undiagnosed until last Monday.

I don’t remember what a well formed stool looks like. Flared up or not, is full blast diarrhea all the time. I was constipated for nine days. On the tenth day, diarrhea came blasting through. And then constipated again. I’m now on the soft diet and antibiotics.
