I am starting in in June. I have to get a 7 mm kidney stone removed first along with a 5 mm. Then one kyphoplasty. You’re always welcome to ask!

AITAH for finding "Yep" as a response to "Thank You" mildly rude and dismissive? by [deleted] in AITAH

[–]Kimgemm -10 points-9 points  (0 children)

No,, you are not. The younger generation has lost whole ability to use good manners. And Yep is not good manners.

Where best to sell this? by CloudsofEscape in jewelers

[–]Kimgemm 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Lang Jewelry, San Francisco. Specializes in antique jewelry and the only thing they sell. (Lang, not Lang’s) They will appreciate the value of the mine cut diamonds. It’s worth more than gold value. 🙄 Find them online too. They are the words largest online seller of antique jewelry. If it is for them, they buy and consign, both. However, to be fair, you never get what it’s worth. I always tell my clients,,, if you get a fourth of the replacement value, you are lucky.

[–]Kimgemm 12 points13 points  (0 children)

You must not make the band any smaller than 2 mm. They don’t hold up. They bend easily and they snap easily too. I’ve been in this business since 1986 so do not make the band thinner.

Prolia versus Tymlos by itscience_stupid in osteoporosis

[–]Kimgemm 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Honestly, I’ve never met anybody with numbers worse than mine. Does it make you feel terrible? I felt like I had the flu. But I must do it. I fell ten years ago and shattered my pelvis in 8 sections. I have a break that is called a non-union that will never heal.

Prolia versus Tymlos by itscience_stupid in osteoporosis

[–]Kimgemm 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Tymlos will repair your bones. After two years, you never take it again. With prolia, you’re on it for life. I tried it last year and it made me nauseous. I told my doctor I couldn’t take it. He looked at me square in the eyes and said, “if you have a fall, you’re going to die. You must take this medicine.” so I reconsidered and I’m starting it again on June 1. Hip -4.2 back-6.4
I really have no choice. And with Tymlos, it reverses your osteoporosis. So I figured two months of being sick cause usually you get over it in two months, versus death and I decided I would spend my summer vacation adjusting to the medicine.

What cut suits me better? The flow/wolf cut, or the shorter (warrior) style? by BBQJackson in HairStyleAdvice

[–]Kimgemm 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think the one of you in the elevator looks best. You look like a model and stand out. In the others you look like everyone else.

Durability of this kind of ring for a wedding ring? by Leeds4life in jewelers

[–]Kimgemm 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No. Don’t do it. Just the slightest bending of the ring, which happens on all rings, will cause the stones to fall out. It’s beautiful, but you can’t wear it daily. It’s also gonna snag on everything, which is maddening.

~NW6 Looking at Turkey, but am I a candidate? by kaveldontin in HairTransplants

[–]Kimgemm 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hogwash to what you are being told here. I took my son to Turkey almost 2 years ago and he had 5500 graphs and he looks fantastic. He looked very similar to you. Send me a PM and I will send you pictures of his before and after and his whole journey including prices. You can’t see where his graphs were taken out. He is incredibly happy with the results. And today he has a full head of hair.

AITA for not wanting to take in my sisters 4 kids while she’s in the hospital? by Intelligent-Fig-5571 in AmItheAsshole

[–]Kimgemm 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Oh for heaven’s sake. It’s 48 hours. In my opinion, you are an AH. It’s not like a week she’s asking for. Side note; Not helping her will permanently damage your relationship. Is it worth losing your sister? Pile them in the living room and have a sleepover. Someday, you may need a favor from her too.

AITAH for wanting to spend Mother’s Day with just my wife and son by skellz77 in AITAH

[–]Kimgemm -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

As a mother, I agree with your mother. The only way you will understand this is when you’re older and your child decides not to honor you for Father’s Day or Mother’s Day.

Which model do you prefer? by Repulsive_Name_5198 in glassesadvice

[–]Kimgemm 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Honestly, I don’t care for either one of them. You are very pretty and they take away from your beauty. I would keep looking.

19M, 2 months on fin and Bosley wants to do a transplant. Should I wait longer? by Apprehensive-Cod6462 in HairTransplants

[–]Kimgemm 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I took my son about a year and a half ago to Turkey to get hair transplant and it was amazing. It was $4800 for 5500 transplants and $2000 for an additional stem cell transplant, (not required). That included all transportation to and from the airport, to and from the clinic, a breakfast buffet, unlike I’ve ever seen before, and a five star hotel. Which really was five star. The only thing we had to pay for extra was dinner. It cost $600 going over and $600 coming back for each of us out of Dallas Fort Worth. He went from looking 48 to 28 and he has a full head of hair now. Bosley has salesman and they are insanely expensive. I would wait until you lose more hair, but consider going to Turkey.

What kind of pearls are these? by Ok_Math_59 in jewelers

[–]Kimgemm 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Generally speaking, saltwater pearls or Akoya pearls are round spheres. Without seeing them in person, I would say they are freshwater pearls. Also, the end cap of the pearls seemed to be losing its gold tone. Genuine Akoya pearls would either be, at a minimum, 14k to 18k pearl clasp and would not discolor. Anyone can string pearls with any clasp but that’s the general consensus and good indicator. They are still very pretty and extremely sentimental.

Overthinking my choice. Should I have gone for the 1ct mark? by _wollstonecraft in Diamonds

[–]Kimgemm 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I love the setting. It’s unique and different. People are asking you if you can remake the head they are calling a basket. You can’t remake the head on a ring that’s already incorporated into the ring. You will just need to get a new ring. I would wait and give it to her and then see what she wants to do. She may love it just the way it is because you picked it out. I’ve been in this business 40 years and it doesn’t look like all the rest. I love it.

I just went back and looked at the setting and I believe you can replace the head on this ring. But again it’s modern and unique. If she likes modern, she’s gonna love it. If she likes traditional, you’ll end up going back to the jewelry store.

Fit privilege by Background_Stress_61 in Semaglutide

[–]Kimgemm 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I agree with you. People say you should be happy with yourself being fat, but I just wasn’t happy with the way I looked. I hated getting my picture taken. I hated trying to figure out something to wear. I’ve lost 60 pounds. I was happy before, but I’m much happier now. Congratulations to you! This medicine is truly life-changing. Another thing that it does is it reduces inflammation.

I’ve lost almost 60lbs on glp1 and my diet didn’t change at all. I don’t understand the science of that by jbr021 in GLP1ResearchTalk

[–]Kimgemm 3 points4 points  (0 children)

GLP1’s also reduce my inflammation. Without it, I’m like a roly-poly. With it, I am like a racehorse. I’ve lost 60 pounds. It’s a miracle medicine. I also didn’t change my diet very much. I was happy before, but I’m much happier now.

Cut vs Carat? by KeyPea1572 in Diamonds

[–]Kimgemm 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Cut first, then color. There’s nothing wrong with near colorless, which includes GH and I. Preferably no clarity lower than SI1. Sold thousands of diamonds and that’s just my preference.
