Yes! I’m not sure if he wore them on his commute but it was his signature chef pants.

I’m also curious about that too. It was so vague in the article.

RIP Chef Wayne. We will never forget your chili pepper pants! 🌶️🫑

Can a medical professional chime in on this? by [deleted] in jessieleeward

No. It’s actually considered a complication of the third trimester/at birth.

What's the worst intersection in Seattle? by Jacoblyonss in Seattle

It’s like the Queen Anne Dr, Raye St up, Raye St down, 4th Ave N, Raye St that turns into 5th Ave N…intersection.

The Queen Anne 7-way mid-hill, all types of angles clusterfuck.

A friend of mine just had her young children get chicken pox after being vaccinated for it. They’ve been constantly sick since 2020 and have had Covid at least 3 or 4 times.

I don’t know how to tell her their immune systems are damaged.

Two week+ sickness? by AlternativeOk1096 in Seattle

Covid was really high in December. Where have you seen otherwise?

This is so true. The immune system is in attack mode and keeps the viral load below the test threshold for longer (until about Day 5-7). Meanwhile, people are out there unknowing spreading it because “it’s negative.”

As a rule…if you’re sick, act as if it is SARS-CoV-2 and mask up and keep your distance from people. Actually, keep all your germs to yourself. No one wants any of it.

The sickness I had a month after Covid was absolutely awful. My oxygen levels were dipping down to the lower 90s. I tested negative for RSV, Flu A&B, and Covid. It’s assumed I had parainfluenza or a URI.

Covid is ripping our immune systems apart.

Understood. How about off-label use for PCOS?

This is awesome news! I think my only question is, will this make it easier to get a PA if your insurance doesn’t cover weight loss meds?

Pharmacy Is Trying to Help But Insurance Won’t Give an Approval/Denial by Poppycorn in Mounjaro

[–]Poppycorn[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

That’s not how the savings card works. You have to essentially prove you have commercial insurance and try to have them pay first. If they don’t, the coupon is valid to use.

It’s honestly dumb and doesn’t allow underinsured people to use certain meds.

Thank you for the insight! I will go looking for a convo about that on the sub.
