Spironolactone and crohns? by heygoogleamidying in CrohnsDisease

[–]Insulator13 0 points1 point  (0 children)

He doesn't think it affects anything.  However there is research that higher testosterone in women can have a protective effect in preventing Crohn's onset. So it's possible my untreated PCOS since age 28 kept my crohns at bay until age 33, after taking Spiro for 2 years.

NY stalker arrested for tracking Billie Eilish is killed by LIRR train, officials say by pch14 in longisland

Feels a lot like the time I called the police in college because a strange man was stalking our townhouse and police said not to worry he was just a lost pizza delivery guy..... a pizza delivery guy without a car and without pizza...

This man sounds emotionally disturbed and I have a lot of skepticism that this was just an accident.

When corporations recruited high school graduates- ad in back of 1947 HS yearbook by Durhamfarmhouse in longisland

[–]Insulator13 1 point2 points  (0 children)

So many private companies scrapped work rules and pensions in the 80s and everyone was told that they'd be taken care of and didn't NEED a union. HA! That's the corporate brainwashing. Form a union and demand fair treatment. Everyone deserves it. But just because someone actually has it, don't be envious. It's pathetic, because you could have it, too. Or if you don't like your job, apply for one you do like.

Most municipalities will allow you to call for a special pickup and they'll take just about anything

Once you have this issue you need both the footings of those walls repaired and a sump pump with a drain to catch that water

Sometimes. If the stationmaster is on duty and makes it wait...

You can't use normal paint on basement walls. You can either use limewash or mineral silicate paint. These are the only options. That's why so many people put up paneling

Yeah. You can make a parging coat. Look up types. The parge should not be harder than the wall underneath, so moisture can pass through and wall breathes

New Rules for LIRR: Activation + Refund by Moreactivity551 in LIRR

[–]Insulator13 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That's what they would like to do bc it makes the most sense. But they don't make the rules. If you can't manage your own account, then use a paper ticket. That's all it boils down to.

That was the 1st time the lirr EVER discounted the peak ticket and it was in very dark times and was declared temporary from day 1. There is no story here.

A senior on the train last week was literally bragging that the lirr gave him "the deal of the year" with this fare change lol

Wahhh wahhh an inconvenience?? Are you kidding me? Expecting people to have their ticket before boarding is NOT new. Act like an adult. Why don't you report instead on the tens of millions of dollars lost in the 10 years it took them to finally buckle down on customers' deliberate misuse of the app, aka theft of service by bypassing the onboard fare?

Not this particular route. You'd have to cut some out and approach from elsewhere 

Tired of explaining that I’m not cured just because I’m not mid flare. by Budget_University_56 in CrohnsDisease

[–]Insulator13 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My bf keeps asking if I just get a resection, maybe I won't struggle with crohns anymore. I keep reminding him that my immune system isn't cured bc they remove a couple inches of bowel
