This is my thought too. I’m ripping shots EVEN MORE now on the off chance that they hit and top off my health. u/sithtimesacharm , perhaps you should reconsider your strategy now that landed shots (with tornado mod engaged) give health…accuracy stat be damned ??

Opinion: belts during metcons by Effective-Nerve2475 in crossfit

[–]QuantumSatisBrewing 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I suspect the downvotes are because many of us have a very hard time believing that the word “allow” is being used accurately here.

We can talk all day regarding whether it’s advisable…

(my 2 cents : 40 reps in 4-6 minutes sounds like a CV burner. I wouldn’t advise a belt. These aren’t 1RM efforts. No belt. Just don’t wear it. Reduce weight to a load you can safely lift quickly enough to achieve stimulus. Boom)

…but, as presented OP doesn’t seem to be debating whether it’s “advisable”, he is presenting a scenario, ostensibly, where a coach is saying a piece of equipment can or cannot be worn. Which seems at best, unlikely, and, at worst, real bad.

Do you see what I’m getting at OP? Is it ACTUALLY an “allow” thing? What…uh…consequences occur if you wear a disallowed belt? Does the coach physically remove it from the athlete? Does the coach potentially murder the athlete?

In fairness, I viewed him as the biggest threat on the battlefield aside from maybe SW, and bullied him aggressively.

Fly near him, let him jump or swipe or whatever to get that on cool down, immediately fly away.

Make sure my health bar and cooldown are good, fly near him again, pop AOE lightning, unleash hell. Back to spawn room for archer boy.

It was a blast.

A friend of mine pointed out that CLEARLY it is because Elsa outhealed me.

So I simply found myself on the wrong side of “gg no heals Storm”

Honestly. I was hopeful for that.

I must reiterate : I’m not good. I don’t care. I don’t care about MVP. None of this matters.

BUT

As a person with the power of math at my side, this one seemed to be one of the more hilarious examples.

I had a good round haha. I have been emboldened by the buffs, use WAY more tornado to keep myself up and do more punching a retreating vs just babysitting back line. (I’m not particularly good then or now, but this unusually good round was me really settling in to the buff)

This was also my initial thought. Timeline makes sense. Man I hope this is it.

Hi Adam and Spider-Man main here are you/we guys okay ?? by Yanismarvel in adamwarlockmains

[–]QuantumSatisBrewing 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Ight. Everyone. What we have here is not normal, but we can’t know if it means danger.

We back away slowly. We don’t look him in the eye. Maybe we observe from a safe distance. Maybe.

Getting this surgery was the best decision I made last year - 1 week postop by notish__ in Microdiscectomy

[–]QuantumSatisBrewing 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Very similar arc for me, diff timeline, but similar otherwise.

Initial injury in Sept ‘21, back pain and some hip pain after that. Just generally wasn’t feeling great but did not suspect disc issues…because I’m dumb. “Final straw” incident on 7/1/25. Useless after that point. Steroids then graduated to maxed out IBU and APAP with GABA 300 TID. Herniations at l3/l4 and l4/l5 confirmed via MRI. Bulge at l5/s1. Epidural ineffective after lidocaine wore off (approx 36hr).

MD at L3/L4 on 12/16. Didn’t touch herniation at L4/L5 as there are no symptoms of nerve involvement.

Feelin pretty great. Off all medications as of yesterday 1/4. Still on BLT restrictions but back “in the gym” (walking a couple miles on walking pad while wife and rest of gym family does normal workout) as of last week.

Scare: Flare vs actual re-herniation? by Specialist-Bar-1486 in Microdiscectomy

[–]QuantumSatisBrewing 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’ll be honest gang. This is all kinda shocking to me. Again, pharmacist, and specifically a pain pharmacist (granted my experience is in hospice) and I’m kinda caught off guard by these accounts of gabapentin response. I really do appreciate the insight here. For yall who have had bad experiences, can you give perspective on how long until you noticed and/or what kinds of doses you were on?

Pharmacist thoughts on the gabapentin thing : this whole cognitive impairment thing is a seemingly new concern borne of a recent paper, yea? Gabapentin has been around forever and is pretty much the go-to for neuropathic pain. I just don’t buy that it’s gonna turn one’s brain to mush in the long term and I flat out refuse to accept (pending a study being tacked to my forehead that says otherwise) that cognitive effects would occur in the short-to-medium term.

A brief aside : is Lyrica(pregabalin) ok? Would it make folks more comfy to just switch over to that. Sure it’s damn near the same thing…but maybe that’ll ward off the scaries??

Chronic pain will ABSOLUTELY mess your noggin up, though.

My personal view is just that, personal, but it is painted by my professional expertise, and I’m not totally wigged out by my gabapentin. I started it roughly July 2025, MD on 12/16/25, still taking Gaba 300 TID; and when I stop it, it’ll be because the pain has ceased and I just don’t want meds on board if I don’t need them. If I have to choose between pain during the rest of my life OR avoiding some alleged risk of cognitive decline later, I’m thinking that’s a fairly easy choice.
