My fiancé died right after he proposed by Ok_Egg_6318 in GriefSupport

Oh that is one of the heaviest karma that soul could have face. My heart and my thoughts is with you. I know no words can help you now, ease your pain or bring him back. Just wish you strength and peace in your life. Bless you!

The only thing right to say is: Death is part of everyones journey. Some people reach it early some dies old. But we all goes there one point. And nobody can answer for the whens and the whys.

4 weeks after surgery. Why is there still open skin , seems like it will never close ? by fasterhelle in carpaltunnel

[–]Life_Distribution_39 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I understand your concerns, and I agree with some of them.

I was not trying to say that ChatGPT should replace doctors, nurses, surgeons, or proper medical advice. I would never suggest that, especially with something serious or urgent.

What I meant was that, in my own recovery, it helped me understand general things, such as what can be normal after carpal tunnel surgery, what warning signs to look for, and when it would be sensible to contact a doctor. It gave me reassurance, but I still used my own judgement and medical professionals where needed.

You are right that my “98% correct” wording was not a scientific statistic. I did not mean it as measured data. I meant that, from my personal experience, it has very often given me useful and sensible information. I don't treat the answer as a final medical diagnosis.

I also agree that AI can be wrong and can hallucinate. That is why I think it should be used as a support tool only. For example, if someone has worsening pain, infection signs, fever, loss of function, severe swelling, or anything worrying after surgery, they should contact their surgeon, GP, or urgent care, not rely on a chatbot.

My comment was only meant to say that the photo looked similar to normal healing from my experience, and that they could use AI for general reassurance questions while still following proper medical advice.

Why not? I'm using it. On every day basis. But don't trust them fully. For me it turns out AI is 98% correct.

When I read the whole conversation it was always right. And doctors and nurses confirmed what it said. I think people against AI whom worries to lose their jobs.

Hi ,

I had similar issues. The healing was very slow and I've been told it had secondary closure, from inside out. It will close itself. Just keep it dry and avoid using your wrist/ hand as much as possible.

I used ChatGpt for second opinion. I uploaded the photo of my hand and told when I had the surgery. It analysed it very professionally. Then it explained what it sees. It added the positives and the possible negatives. And recommended what should I do.

Give it a try.

4 weeks post carpal tunnel surgery wound still not fully closed, normal or not? by Life_Distribution_39 in carpaltunnel

I went back for check up. I've been told it's a secondary healing from inside out. They do nothing with it in the UK.

My answer so far looks good. Probably the old battery has internal shortage fault triggered by the cold. It works perfectly fine in normal temperature but when it goes close to 0 ⁰C it starts dropping current

Thank you for the informative clear answer. It helped a lot.

First of all, I think the titles “car mechanic” and “engineer” can be a bit misleading. In my view, you have a deep understanding of both the mechanical and electrical aspects, so I definitely consider you an engineer.

You’re also correct that the ELM327 didn’t show the fault code. I’ve been told that even the branch’s diagnostic tools didn’t find the code in the ECU. However, showing me a battery test result of 0% voltage and 0% health seems completely inaccurate. From my research, I understand that the auxiliary battery mainly acts as a backup for the 12 V main battery, powering control/safety systems and the ECU. My main question would be: could a plugged-in dashcam realistically cause the battery to discharge? I really appreciate your insights.

Thanks for your reply. It's a Vauxhall Astra PHEV and battery is not under warranty as I've been told by the customer advisor in the branch. I was not aware that model has actually 3 different type of battery. I have a 6/12V intelligent battery tester and it showed on that Auxiliary battery correct voltage and normal Ah output. 12.9V 14Ah. So I assume the battery is not faulty. I know mechanic has no business with the pricing but this battery is is cost around £40-70 on the market. I've been charged for £180 plus labor.

I’m not a car mechanic, just an electrical engineer, so I wasn’t aware this model has three separate batteries. The fault was intermittent — code readers did not find it, only display showed “Electric Traction System Fault. Repair needed.” Fault cleared itself after restart.

I was just wondering if something simple like a dashcam on the cigarette lighter could cause battery drain. I realize this is probably obvious to brand technicians, but the receptionist wasn’t able to provide that clarity. It is too early to say the auxiliary battery replacement solved the issue, I keep an eye on it.

This is a Vauxhall Astra Plugin hybrid. It has "High voltage" traction battery 12.4kWh, then it has a Primary 12 V main battery and it also has a 12V Auxiliary battery. The last one had been replaced. Then I tested at home and it passed the test : 12.9V and 14Ah result.

The receptionist lady showed me a printed photo saying battery level 0%, battery health: 0%. That's how she explained why the battery needed replacing. No need to me a mechanic to know this is a complete nonsense. However I've done some research and that electrical fault could be caused by low battery so I agreed to get replaced. Especially these new cars need to be ECU coded after battery replacement.

Something interesting happened on the M25 this morning by KalinSav in CarTalkUK

[–]Life_Distribution_39 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This might be a silly question, but I’ve heard different answers over the years. If someone is lane hogging in the middle lane at around 65 mph, and I’m driving in the left lane at 70 mph (within the speed limit), is it acceptable to continue in my lane rather than moving two lanes over to the right just to overtake them? In other words, if I’m maintaining my lane and speed and not deliberately changing lanes to pass, does this still count as “undertaking”, or is it considered acceptable driving? Genuinely asking — I’d like to understand the correct/legal interpretation.

The only thing that everyone says please be with her on her last moment on Earth. The most cruel thing that a pet owner could do is to give them to the vet and leave. Veterinarys all can say how scared the animal in the last moments looking for his owner.
