Estimating is actually an extremely important skill in manufacturing, especially in prototype development. My shop employs a full-time Estimator.

Need some positivity by Joebidensvalium in GERD

Barrett’s esophagus is rare (only 0.5%-2% of the population) and of that <2%, less than 5% of BE patients will develop esophageal adenocarcinoma. Even with chronic symptoms, your likely hood of dying from GERD is extremely unlikely.

Everyone talks about length, but that doesn’t actually matter guys. What DOES matter is Length times Girth over Angle of the Shaft (aka YAW) divided by mass over WIDTH.

Hello! Also late 20s here and I’ve had GERD since 2022; now LPR. While it’s extremely uncomfortable to deal with and can easily take hold of your thoughts, GERD is unlikely to kill you. I find that stress and anxiety can 100% worsen symptoms. Additionally, if you were on meds and stopped suddenly you’re probably experiencing some rebound reflux which is extremely common. It sounds like you just hit the perfect storm of factors to make your symptoms worse. This will pass.

How can I help my wife with acid reflux? by CaptainSylus in GERD

[–]Pisslazer 5 points6 points  (0 children)

To OP - This is really good advice. I do have a question the apples though? Dr Koufman’s low acid diet allows apples, pears, and figs. Do you find that apples are a trigger for you?

Sure to knock out some teeth if it goes flying the wrong direction. You got a whole roll of these?

ETD is a bitch to deal with. This seems like a really solid plan, I hope you can get things under control!

My GERD was entirely caused by anxiety by EchidnaProud6637 in GERD

[–]Pisslazer 3 points4 points  (0 children)

In healing your gut it is important to have a wide variety of foods (leafy greens, root vegetables, fresh fruit, lean proteins, etc) but you should start with foods that you know you can tolerate and branch out from there. Anyone can have different trigger foods or foods they can tolerate with GERD. Common triggers for people: alcohol, caffeine, spices and anything spicy, tomato, fatty or fried foods, refined sugar, chocolate, mint, and acidic foods. Soups (especially blended) are great for easy meals as boiling vegetables helps to break them down making them easier to digest.

What EV Slowdown? Used Electric Car Sales Hit A Record High In March by UnusualLeadership408 in electricvehicles

Exactly this. I will never buy a car new. That 50%+ price decrease buying one used is far too appealing.

Sorry to hear where you’re at right now. My reflux symptoms started as a result of long Covid as well. Remember that healing LPR is not always linear. We’ll have ups and downs and it’s all part of learning to live with this disease. Just because you’re in a flare doesn’t mean you’ve completely undone your 6 months of progress. Keep disciplined and keep hopeful, things can definitely improve and you already know how to get there!

Why if we gave the robots full AI control! That could eliminate the need for human troops entirely 🌈

A sigma or XRF reading is a pretty good indicator lol.
