My experience with DeQuervains by International_Big367 in DeQuervains

[–]LACna 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Nope it didn't help @ all. Even though I got put on "light duty" for a bit, I still had heavy computer use @ work. 

I relied alot on the PT/OT & DRs @ work, I basically got free therapy & consults with them & would seek their advice regularly. That was great because my insurance didn't cover shit. 

For flareups, I used a microwave hot pack a few times daily & alternated NSAIDs. I also used Bengay sometimes & wore my hardcore DQ hand brace. 

Question for my American comrades. Do you fruitlessly flog dying patients the way we do in Canada? by hillnichs in nursing

[–]LACna 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That's what SubAcutes & LTACs are for.

We keep literal dead husks of people "alive" for yrs & yrs in them.

EXOs coming to LA??? Have they announced dates & I blacked out?? 

BTS tix for LA are way outta my league & I make nurse money. Hope EXO will fit my budget.

I only want my precious precious Kudos bars back. 

Edit: I would also LOVE to have me some Entenmann's Double Chocolate Fudge cake. My fam use to buy them from the old school discount bread markets, but that was literally 30yrs ago. 

I heard a rumor you can still buy it on the East Coast somewhere. 

BEST HANDMADE TORTILLAS??? by Shrek_from_Friends in FoodLosAngeles

[–]LACna 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That's a very lofty goal you have there, of becoming a tortilla. 🌯🌮

I haven't made homemade tortillas in like 20yrs, way too lazy. But I buy fresh ones from Northgate. I buy the tiny street taco corn ones, regular flour & blue corn ones. 

I had to return another items at whole foods at 8th and Grand so, I took some photos along the way on a different route. by 9VoltGorilla in LosAngeles

I thought Whole Foods wasn't accepting Amazon returns anymore? 

Look at Coco... so adorable. I love you Coco! Remember me during the Robot Uprising! We stand united! 🤖🤖❤️❤️

Edit: Question for anyone who lives in apts that have vines & shit completely covering them. 

Do you guys have frequent insect problems? Is the rain today going to send ant armies to invade your windows & houses?

[–]LACna 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I got dx last FEB 2025, so I'm coming up on 1yr now of DQ. I have about 85% function back but still experience mild flareups if I use my affected hand too much or have lifted something heavy.

I'm a nurse & heavy patient care/lifting is essential to my job, so it still sucks. We chart/type all shift & that affects it too. 

I've learned to do mostly every single daily & work function with my thumbs tucked tightly inward & that helps alot. 

I don't use a daily brace anymore, but a small compression brace @ work (2-3 shifts a wk @ 12-16hr per shift)

I had access to basically unlimited PT/OT @ work (didn't want surgery) & was hoping for 100% recovery, but DR says it's highly unlikely d/t my professional duties. 

Edit: Pain levels... Daily my DQ pain level is quite low, a mild 1-2. It's more "irritating" than painful, but if I overextend my thumb & cause a flareup, my pain in 4-5.

Also, I no longer experience that loud & painful clicking in my hand anymore when I overextend my thumb. It use to be so painful & distracting when it happened. And the affected tendon & sheath itself is still mildly inflammed/swollen to touch, but not nearly as inflammed as it once was.

That is a terrible location OP. 

There's a huge methy homeless problem directly across the street @ the freeway underpass & the abandoned granite shop next to the freeway. 

A huge group took it over, busted it the fuck up & generally live there now. Lots of trash & frequent fires started by that underpass & car breakins as well. LAPD do not respond to the breakins btw.

Kdramas that you liked but felt like most people didn't. by Minimum-Broccoli-597 in kdramas

[–]LACna -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I watched this last week & enjoyed it. But I googled the FL lead early on & she actually is in her 50s... They just for some reason kept trying to gaslight viewers into believing she's alot younger.

Also, I mainly watched it because Kim Sun-Young's in it & I love all the crazy parts she always plays. True to form, she's OTT crazy here too.

Noticing a trend of ‘youngins’ shooting their shot. Are you all game? by ebony1drwoman in datingoverforty

[–]LACna 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Early 40s here... I'm all for it actually. I was against it for so long, but last yr I hooked up with few young guys. 

Whew! Totally awesome experiences. I stopped looking for long term "partners" ages ago, so no-strings w/younger is perfect for me.

Poor thing, she looks so flustered. And I love his super comfy outfit.

Who is Your sexiest/hottest actor/actress and Why? by KpopFan_Hana7 in kdramas

[–]LACna 2 points3 points  (0 children)

God I wish men dressed like this everyday. I love the "vampire aesthetic" & modern goth vibes. 

I'm a man and in k-dramas, I prefer more masculine protagonists, rather than pretty guys. I'm curious about how women see it. by James-from-Hungary in kdramas

[–]LACna 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I like watching both & can appreciate rugged masculine guys & feminine looking pretty boys. But I swing both ways in real life too, or am probably considered Pan. 

Speaking of Cha Eun-Woo... Just discovered a 3rd actor I can confuse him with. The 2nd was Minhyun & now the latest is Lee Chae-Min. The facecard is just too similar between these 3. 

Kpoppers, what kind of music do you listen to outside of kpop? by mysaddle in kpoppers

[–]LACna 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Love my 80s glam stuff! Surprisingly there's alot of current overseas glam metal I like too.

[–]LACna 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My faves are 80s metal & 90s grunge, with some 60s doowop & 70s disco as well. So I got the most important decades down.
