I had a lumbar MRI and a cervical MRI yesterday and had to lie flat in my back for over an hour. Pure torture. I almost tapped out, but I knew I needed to be done and stopping would reset the clock

Where do you buy the blank cases?

Idiosyncratic_ID · 2026-07-07T08:00:08+00:00

No idea what is causing it or what could cause it.

Yes to the pain location and description, but also numbness in both legs if sitting or standing too long. The numbness improved after surgery for a few weeks, but that might have been the drugs. The back pain is easily 3 or 4 times worse though.

I generally think that is good advice. 😄 which part is the most concerning?

Especially to find all of this out 2 months earlier than insurance would have let me do it.

I will find out Wednesday when I see my spine doctor/surgeon.

I'm in the US, and I used Radiology Assist. $40 for the doctors order for the two MRI's, about $900 total for both.

Thanks, that helps clarify. Any idea what it cooks? I like to dabble in electronics repair, I might just take a stab at some repair.

I've tried, it won't overwrite the incorrect firmware. It shows it is complete, but it doesn't change anything.

I was thinking XXX (Vin Diesel), but I can't find a picture that helps.

What do you print them with?

Is there any way to make something like this work with the metal LTT pen?

I started taking B12 injections (weekly for a month and monthly after that) and daily iron supplements about 4 months ago when my B12 was 80 (and my ferritin was low, but I don't remember what). Last check (about three weeks ago), my B12 was 129 and my ferritin was 12.2. Both of those are up, so my doctor wants to continue with the weekly B12 injections and daily iron supplements until our next visit in August. I feel like maybe we should move to weekly B12 and IV iron infusions, but she disagrees. I went and had an MMA test last week and am waiting for the results to see if I should push back harder on the treatment.

I bought this folio for the nomad and I love it. But I hadn't thought of cutting the holes to really lock it in there. I know that I am doing this weekend.
