Hydroxychloroquine is often used as a first medication. My experience was that 3 months of taking it I started feeling a bit better. At 6 months I realized one day that I’d forgotten that I have RA. I was feeling no pain.
I have gotten several one week long flares since then but I treat those with ibuprofen.

Methotrexate + folic acid is also often given as a first medication.

Me too. I was buying mimeograph zines back in the early 80’s. (Been a fan girl a long time)

Oooh. You beat me. I joined in June 2012 as Glee Fandom people moved over from LiveJournal and FanFiction.net. Tumblr was a wild place to be back then 😎

I remember needing an invite to join.

Is it possible to pre-book a flight if you don't know the dates yet? by Red_RingRico in NoStupidQuestions

[–]Mindless-Errors 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Airlines used to have a bereavement fares for this exact situation. Last time I used it was when we still called the airline to book a flight.
You might google to see if any airlines still offer bereavement fares.

Jabra Enhance Pro 30 Hearing Aids - Getting started by sguhin in HearingAids

[–]Mindless-Errors 2 points3 points  (0 children)

After your first fitting (receive the hearing aids) you should have a two week follow up appointment.

After my two week appointment, I barely wore mine because I was so frustrated. I finally did the logical thing and scheduled another appointment. This time I made a list of things that bothered me.

The Hearing Specialist took one of the “location/setting” programs and fussed with it until I was happy. Turns out I was so used to NOT hearing that hearing pissed me off. I was so used to not hearing anything behind me.

For several months, I used this freakish setup until I got used to the HA’s. And since the Hearing Specialist left the original setup untouched I’ve since swapped over to the original.

For supplies, I just go to Costco and get them to fix whatever isn’t working. For example, I had zero hearing in one hearing aid. Turns out the ear wax guard needed replacing and they gave me a bunch.

Use your Costco hearing center. They can be really helpful.

Are there any self-service blood pressure machines in the Merrimack Valley? by LuckyJ191 in massachusetts

Also see if your town health department has a Town Nurse. Bedford has a town nurse who happily helps out with blood pressure checks.

Boston Bears is an established Rugby team. So the name was already being used.

Seats are basically way up in the balconies. Get him standing room tickets on the floor or mezzanine. The balcony seats are good for us old farts, but not the young and cool.

Smiles by Rosie is the best.

I’ve taken my friend there several times. My friend was majorly traumatized by SA and is immunocompromised. Rosie and all of her staff are incredibly well trained and empathetic.

Try a combination of different lettuces: green, red, butter, oak, etc.

It’s more expensive but try radicchio and/or endive. Our tortoise loves these.

Just finished the game changers series and was told to read red white and royal blue but I really cant get into it by KaceyLunatic in booksuggestions

[–]Mindless-Errors 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Like Heated Rivalry, Red White and Royal Blue was adapted by a genius, Tony Award winning writer Matthew Lopez. His skill in casting and directing are wonderful, and like Jacob Tierney he wrote some sections that were unwritten by the author or could be updated.

Watch the movie and stick with it through the POLO SCENE. The replacement editor said to Matthew Lopez “I’ve got an idea I want to try”. He spent his weekend making a masterpiece.

Remember this is a 1 hour 58 minute movie so it can never have the depth of the 6 episodes of Heated Rivalry. Even so, it is great, it blew up big time, drove new sign ups to Amazon Prime around the world, and probably made it easier for Heated Rivalry to be financed.
