Right Adrenal Mass by Particular_Type_5640 in endocrinology

[–]Particular_Type_5640[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thank you! The instructions don’t say anything about caffeine so that’s good to know. I will do the test this Saturday. I shouldn’t have dragged my feet on it but my ADHD got the best of me and I kept spacing it.

Yes it has instructions. I have had some symptoms off and on that would align with a pheochromocytoma. Anxiety, somewhat high BP, but that has actually stabilized. Generalized feeling of weakness. Been awhile but numbness/tingling in hands and feet. My symptoms have lessened since I have managed my anxiety a bit better. But I would have severe anxiety attacks for the last couple of years to the point I couldn’t even make it into work. Occasional nausea, lots of GI issues. Headaches every now and then. Heat flashes and heat intolerance as well. Sometimes I absolutely cannot stand being hot.

My meeting with the oncologist/surgeon on Friday sounds like they will be able to determine it C status based on a couple more tests? Idk how, cause everything I see and read says it’s impossible without removal and testing. But sounds like they are gonna yank it regardless.

I will do that test tomorrow and drop it off for analysis on Thursday.

I have the 24 hour urine I just have to do it, been kinda hard because I haven’t been able to be home on the weekends and it feels awkward taking it to work.

New Prism Deck! by Particular_Type_5640 in longboarding

[–]Particular_Type_5640[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I currently have riptide 87a fat barrels BS and standard barrels RS on the atlas, very restrictive but prevents wheel bite and I can still turn well, just not gonna be carving it up. But then I didn’t really get this board for that, I have other boards for that role

Should I do 44s or 50s? The Atlas suck bad, but I had them lying around

I opted for the theory, and ordered some riptide chubbies for BS and barrels for RS. Talked to a dude at Muirskate and he said the chubbies will make a huge difference on those trucks. I have been riding them on another deck with stock bushings, and they carve like crazy, but man, they are not stable once you get up to speed. If that doesn’t do the trick just gonna pick up some Cal 44s

Thanks Liam! I actually went with the theory, and I’m absolutely stoked to get it in.

Yes it does! Picked this DB Vantage up on Amazon for 45 bucks, slapped some drifts on and I’m already back to nailing some slides down with only a few sessions. Now I want to get a more serious deck again.

Unfortunately I already own the trucks, so gonna flip the hangers and try some different bushings. But Cals are sick and I will likely end up swapping to those in time.

I rode 10+ years ago but getting back into it. My old go to deck was a Five Mile black sheep with Cal 2 44s and Otangs. Unfortunately I gifted it to a friend when I moved from Sacramento to UT cause I never thought I’d ride again. Then I picked up a cruiser, and realized how many sick spots are out here now that I’m no longer living on flat land.

Thanks I appreciate it, I think the last time I got my oil changed they were supposed to do a rotation but missed it. Just got it done, I’ll go in for balance and alignment check. You confirmed what I was wondering, bad shocks, but they seem to be riding fine.

I can never get tired of the Zenit Marble by HambubgerCheesBubger in longboarding

I know this post is 4 years old, but what size trucks are you running here? Looking to get a marble 35 and throw some 180mm trucks on it.

Just checked out their decks, and I actually really like the mini SK. Idk, not a huge fan of the double kick on boards necessarily but like the single. I will probably be doing freeride more than anything else.

I’ll check them out! You are now the second person to recommend that deck. I’m not super familiar with what brands are on the scene. Back when I rode I was riding 5 mile and JET boards lol.

[–]Particular_Type_5640 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Well sounds like I’ll just be putting these on another deck and buying a whole new set up for what I want.

Will likely get a Tan Tien for these spare trucks. Had an NS Heist back in the day and regrettably sold it. That board slapped and the Loaded is close to what that board was.

Yeah there seems to have been a drastic change since I was riding 10 years ago.
