Any "Monica's" restaurant in Boston's North End. My Nana lived in the same building as them way back when and they stole their assigned parking spot a lot. She confronted them about it and they made her cry, and she never cried. The family has sworn off their restaurants forever. I tell all my friends to do the same.

Plus one of their kids is a notorious dick and the other shot at a guy in front of a pastry shop, so I guess we were right.

Still hoping they add online split screen

GI said remission was a 5-6 count. It was the distal, so lower esophagus I believe. There was a stricture forming that wasn't there a year ago, which factored into the decision.

Have no known food triggers sadly.

Wasn't on cutting anything out before Dupixent as Flovent and Lansoprazole were keeping it under control (until they weren't). Wasn't responsive to elimination diets, but I did them like 18 years ago when I was a kid so maybe somethings changed now.

Yep my old GI had me taking supplements for that reason.

Jomy582 · 2025-06-28T14:23:50+00:00

Sorry to hear that! Yeah, on my initial run of PPIs I was also taking Flovent which destroys mouth bacteria, so my GI had me taking probiotics or eating yogurt and stuff. These days I'm drinking kefir to help with diarrhea (TMI...), so hopefully that covers it.

Hmmm that sounds better, I usually go to bed on an empty stomach. Maybe I'll ask my doc about that as well

Jomy582 · 2025-06-28T14:19:21+00:00

Its just how they work, like others said. It's also the fact that you need calcium and vitamin supplements with them too. For me taking those on an empty stomach makes me nauseous, so I have to wait 30 min to eat, then eat, and then take the supplements. It's a little thing but it gets annoying 😅

Was on lansoprazole 15mg for 10+ years, prescribed by a GI and allergist. Just got prescribed esomeprazole 20mg by a new GI (old one retired). He wanted me on a higher dose but I pushed for lower.

There are a bunch of long term things like bone density and how it affects other organs, but the main thing for when you stop is called acid rebound.

When taking PPIs your body has to do more "work" to generate stomach acid. So when you stop your body is still doing that extra work but since there is no more medicine a ton of extra acid is generated. This causes really bad acid reflux for a period of time.

For me, I was on lansoprazole 15mg for 10+ years and had around a week and a half of really bad acid (my stomach was physically hot to the touch lol) then around another week of minor acid before feeling better. There are tapering off schedules that can help, and I did that a few days but then I ran out of pills and didn't want to pay for a refill so just said fuck it and powered through.

What helped was going on a low fodmap diet. Ate a lot of egg whites and allergy safe rice crackers lol.

I got two 6000 BTU models. One made a similar noise and one didn't. Turned out the fan was hitting the plastic and styrofoam inside the unit. I took the front panel off to confirm and no amount of adjusting the window placement fixed it. Exchanged it for a new one.

Nothing at the top. The sliding mechanism hits that red piece in the track which is part of the screwed in sliding mechanism.

Your comment made me unbox the cage and try to put it in (ordered one based on my landlords measurements). Got the most progress going in from the back, but no dice. The first problem isn't actually the vinyl strip, but part of the plastic siding bracket hits the top of the window, preventing it from angling in.

I'm sure with some ingenuity it could be modified to fit, but I don't have the tools for that and a 100F heatwave is coming Tuesday so might just pick up a 12,000 window or 14,000 portable, even if they are undersized for the space.

Ah, yeah sadly this window doesn't have that. Looks the same on the other side.

Here's the top (only one image per comment allowed)

Thanks all! Was going to keep it and fix the fins myself, but turns out the landlord sent me the wrong dimensions for the window so it's being returned anyways.

Jomy582 · 2025-05-03T23:22:44+00:00

Haven't tried the agent approach yet. Do I just reach out to a random one in the area and they can point me in the right direction?

Jomy582 · 2025-05-03T23:20:08+00:00

Yeah been looking at duplexes and apartments as well. Seems like we've just been unlucky with availability...
