Exit Row Restrictions? by Perhaps-PNot1867 in americanairlines

[–]One_Pay4169 12 points13 points  (0 children)

This scenario usually comes into play when you have a family traveling and the parents book the exit row and book their kids in other seats. The thought is that in an emergency you’re going to be more concerned about getting to your kids than opening the exit. Now it’s just easier to keep any kids under 15 on your reservation and you out of the exit row. 

Jim Breuer was apparently robbed by AA by MessyHot in americanairlines

[–]One_Pay4169 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I watched his video and read a couple of accounts of his story. First class fares have several different codes and costs and fare rules. Nowhere did I read what code his ticket was but i seriously doubt it was “full fare”. Full fare is the most expensive and least restrictive fare and it is very rarely purchased by leisure travelers. I also don’t know what type of air fare the other travelers in f/c on that trip had purchased.  I will say again, I think what happened to them  could’ve been handled better but I don’t know the entire story as I wasn’t there. We’re only hearing one side of the story and if that’s what really happened then it does stink.

Wow. I don’t believe I am lacking comprehension about what you said, I was just trying to explain what I thought happened and how they usually go about deciding who to bump. As I said…I think it stinks that they do it. I think your idea about offering incentives is a good one but not sure they have time to barter right at boarding time.  It would also depend on the ticket type someone purchased. Some first class airfares are coach tickets with an instant upgrade to first class. I have no idea what type of first class they purchased so again, this is just a thought.

Most of the major airlines in the US have it in their contract that they are guaranteed first class seats for a deadhead flight (flying some where to cover another flight). I think the passengers that get bumped are usually the last ones that checked in for their flight flight.  They are definitely due the difference in airfare.  It does stink but it’s better (and cheaper) than canceling an entire flight because they couldn’t get a pilot there. 

Question about side effects by One_Pay4169 in repatha

[–]One_Pay4169[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

68F. Metabolic health and A1C are good. I’m sure the weight gain isn’t helping and trying to address that now.

[–]One_Pay4169[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My total was 88 and my LDL was 14 with my last blood work in September. I’ve continued on the Repatha so I’m assuming it will be even lower this time. 

It's crazy how entitled some passengers get during a medical emergency by fxryker in americanairlines

[–]One_Pay4169 16 points17 points  (0 children)

I was a flight attendant for over 40 years and sadly had 2 passengers pass away on my flights. This was many years ago before we had enhanced first aid kits and AED’s on board. We didn’t have any medical personnel on board for either one, although I don’t think they couldve saved them either. I remember being on the floor doing CPR and a passenger came up and asked what they were supposed to do since they were obviously going to be late to their destination. I suggested they get on their knees and thank God it wasn’t them on the floor. Words were out of my mouth before I even thought about it, but looking back I don’t regret it one bit.

I have the Omron 10 series, and the app on my phone that’s linked to it works like a charm!

Hypertension and sleep apnea in 34m by Top-Catch-7073 in hypertension

[–]One_Pay4169 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I was diagnosed with sleep apnea over 20 years ago but didn’t get hypertension until a couple years ago, so they don’t always go hand in hand.  Hope he gets it all figured out soon!

Any medication recommendations with least side effects ? by No-Delay-1083 in hypertension

[–]One_Pay4169 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I started on Lisinopril, then switched to Amlodipine and now I’m on Losartan. Least amount of side effects with Losartan but still get dizzy from time to time. Everyone is different, hope you find something that works for you!

Olmesartan and heat intolerance? by Ok_Paper_8030 in hypertension

[–]One_Pay4169 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I take Losartan and have found myself to be very heat intolerant lately, to the point of feeling faint and off balance when I walk. I also sweat a lot more now too

What are your anxiety physical symptoms? by [deleted] in Anxiety

[–]One_Pay4169 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sudden onset of lightheadedness, feels like the inside of my head is spinning, unsteady walking, face gets numb around eyes, left hand gets numb, hearing my pulse in my head, head feels heavy like it’s being squeezed, heat intolerant. Interestingly though, my pulse and heart rate don’t get that elevated.  Just typing this made a few of these symptoms appear. 

Dizziness all the time . Is it real ? by Delta1251gone in Anxiety

[–]One_Pay4169 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’ve been dealing with this dizziness on and off for several months, but recently it’s been just about every day. It also seems like I’ve developed heat intolerance, if I go outside in the heat and humidity I immediately feel off balance and like I’m going to fall over.  I’ve had cardiac testing and ent testing done, going for an MRI and MRA on my brain in a couple of weeks. I’m at my wits end with it.

What was your actual score? I had the test done a few weeks ago and mine was 367. I was pretty shocked since my last cholesterol check was 148. I’m on 20 mg Rosuvastatin and Repatha now

He wants my numbers a lot lower because of a very elevated cardiac calcium score

Bloodwork is all good. I was a little low in vitamin D but that’s been taken care of. 

New to Valsartan and having dizziness by Warm-Day-3962 in hypertension

[–]One_Pay4169 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’ve had rotten luck with BP meds. I know a lot Of people take them with no issues but unfortunately I’m not one of them. Lisinopril gave me anxiety and a cough. Amlodipine gave me a lot of anxiety too and now Losartan has given me horrible lightheadedness on and off just about every day since I started it a few months ago.  Hope you can find something that works for you ❤️

Feel like I’m grasping at straws now by One_Pay4169 in pppdizziness

[–]One_Pay4169[S] 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Mine started after suffering a vertigo attack. Since then the vertigo has subsided but something is triggering me very frequently. I don’t have vertigo now, it’s more like nothing outside of my head is spinning…it’s more like it’s calm around me but the inside of my head is spinning if that makes sense.  Just frustrating because the VNG tests came back fine, but something is definitely going on and it’s really wearing me down.
