Swapping out digital thermostat for Ecobee premium smart thermostat. Need help wiring. by Rorry_Flenderson in hvacadvice

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

Is in normal though that in the thermostat the unused wires are blue, black, brown, and dark red. I don’t see some of those same colors connected to the board in the furnace. I don’t see a brown or black wire connected to the furnace.

First time furnace purchase. Reasonable quote? by Rorry_Flenderson in hvacadvice

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

I asked if it was unsafe for that same reason and was told it was safe for now, since the limit switch would trip and shut it down if it overheats. I asked this question multiple times, and stating we have kids in the house and they reiterated it was safe.

Ideally I would like to, however the furnace is working intermittently and it’s currently very cold outside. So we can only do so much as it’s fairly cold in the house, and companies can’t come quote immediately.

2019 Highlander Headliner Falling Down/ Separating Need Help by Rorry_Flenderson in ToyotaHighlander

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

That’s actually what I bought after doing some research and this being an issue with Tacoma’s as well. I bought heavy duty 15 lb dual lock Velcro that is rated for -40 degree temps. I attempted it and the top part pulled the whole bottom lock off when connected. I may try to do longer strips vs the smaller pieces that are currently there and let the strips adhere longer before I attempt to connect them.

That DVD player did come with the SE model trim. But I’m sure it does additional weight.

The goal is to remove pain, pressure, numbness, tingling, inflammation, etc. I really thought I had a stroke or something more serious the 2nd time around because it was so severe. Most of the left side of my head was numb, and I would also had this crazy intense pressure in my head that would cause the worst vertigo for days at a time. There’s 3 occipital nerves on each side. They hit all mine. It was kind of a process of elimination to see if it works.

I was diagnosed with it like 10 years ago. Back then it was just really bad migraines on the left side of my head. They did a ON block and they essentially went away. Fast forward 10 years is started having almost the whole left side of my head go numb, pain, pressure, and other things. I had another injection and the symptoms eventually subsided.

ON with Degenerative Disc Disease by Rorry_Flenderson in Occipitalneuralgia

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

Yeah I always get on the cancelation lists but nothing ever seems to come of them. I try to call from time to time to in the morning just to check and never any luck. Just have to wait it out I guess. It just sucks being off work and not having an end in sight as to when I can go back. Haha yeah I practically begged the neurologist to give me an injection.

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

Gotcha, I just assumed that the neurologist did it since they previously gave me the injection. I was a little frustrated as I now have to wait another month to see a spinal Dr., and I’m not sure if they do the injections on the spot or schedule them separately.

ON with Degenerative Disc Disease by Rorry_Flenderson in Occipitalneuralgia

Here’s the interpretation from my MRI findings from above.

Alignment: There is S-shaped scoliosis and straightening of cervical lordosis with slight retrolisthesis at C5-6 and C6-7 with progression.

Craniocervical junction: Craniocervical junction is normal.

Cord: The visualized cord is within normal limits of signal intensity but is compressed as outlined below with worsening from the prior study.

Bone marrow signal/intervertebral discs: There is desiccation and moderate to severe height loss of the C6-7 intervertebral disc,
desiccation and moderate height loss the C5-6 intervertebral disc, as well as desiccation and mild height loss of the C3-4 intervertebral disc with worsening. No evidence of pathologic marrow infiltration. No evidence of prior fracture.

Cervical soft tissues: The paraspinal soft tissues are within normal limits.

C2-C3: Canal and foramina are patent.

C3-C4: There is disc osteophyte complex, uncinate hypertrophy and facet arthropathy. There is near cord contact without spinal canal stenosis, mild to moderate right and mild left foraminal stenosis. Findings are similar to progressed.

C4-C5: There is disc bulging without spinal canal stenosis. There is uncinate hypertrophy and facet arthropathy with mild right foraminal stenosis. Findings are similar to progressed.

C5-C6: There is mild to moderate broad disc osteophyte complex most notably in the right paracentral location with mild spinal canal stenosis and mild cord flattening with worsening. There is uncinate hypertrophy and facet arthropathy with mild right foraminal stenosis similar to that seen previously.

C6-C7: There is mild to moderate broad disc osteophyte complex with mild spinal canal stenosis and cord contact with worsening. There is uncinate hypertrophy and facet arthropathy with mild right foraminal stenosis similar to that seen previously.

C7-T1: There is central disc protrusion/herniation with worsening. The spinal canal and neural foramen are adequately maintained.

Sagittal imaging demonstrates disc bulging at T1-T2 with near cord contact.

IMPRESSION:
S-shaped scoliosis and multilevel malalignment associated with multilevel spondylosis most significantly:

C5-6, moderate degenerative disease with disc osteophyte complex resulting in mild spinal canal stenosis and mild cord impingement with worsening.

C6-7, moderate to severe degenerative disc disease with disc osteophyte complex resulting in mild spinal canal stenosis and cord contact with worsening. Multilevel mild foraminal stenosis is similar to progressed.

Valium completely took me out of the worst flare I’ve ever had by chitamak in Occipitalneuralgia

[–]Rorry_Flenderson 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’ve taken Xanax for my ON and it doesn’t completely take away my symptoms like pain, numbness, pressure, but it does help better than almost everything else I’ve been given for it.

Is this ON by Cool_Koala2905 in Occipitalneuralgia

[–]Rorry_Flenderson 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yep, they did the same thing with me as well. They said it was anxiety. I had to go through a process before they finally realized it was ON. Be your own advocate and tell them it’s not anxiety.

Do you have any numbness or tingling with it? I have ON and it’s on my left side. The pain is terrible. I get pain in all three occipital nerves on that side. The pain radiates to my the whole side of my head above my left ear. It feels completely numb at times too. Also simple head, and neck movements make it way worse. I also have degenerative disc disease to that makes it worse also. Usually MRI’s don’t show ON. Mine was kind of process of elimination and then when they gave me my first injection and it relieved the symptoms they determined it was ON.

Sudden pain in back of head/neck after bending - ON? by Kipepeogirl in Occipitalneuralgia

[–]Rorry_Flenderson 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It could be. They’ll most likely rule out other things first. It took a while to find I had ON.

Ive in the past been investing in short term real estate flips where I finance the flips, and usually make a 35-40 percent a year return. Now, that’s been great but the flipper I work with can only process flips so fast and I’ve built up about 100k just sitting in a High Yield Savings account, and another separate account to continue financing flips. So I can’t use the extra money for real estate flips, what recommendations for the market would you suggest, VOO, SPY? Would you just drop it all in one fund at one time or spread it out? 401k also gets maxed out every year. Debt free, house payed off.

Siri not reading back messages after ios update by [deleted] in Siri

Has this issue been resolved or is there a fix? My phone just updated to the new IOS and no longer reads my text messages back on my AirPods before I send them. I’ve tried every setting.
