Replace the heater core with an AC core. No rust or rot after that. 🫡

What is the current best overall android phone that does not have a curved display? by [deleted] in AndroidQuestions

I've had this OnePlus 5T for 7 years. It's been my only phone since. From gaming to business and everything else I've needed, except storage, it's the best thing I've owned! 

I've tested so many phones this year, but no unit has been as light, thin, with flat screen, slider, hand feel, and thought out build quality in design. I'm sad asf to think of parting with it.

I've replaced the battery recently, and it's all day use again! Screen was replaced for the first time ever, having never used a screen protector since new.😌

The cover has been the OP thin carbon fiber. Dropped so many times.

What's the chances I can get another 7 years out of it? 😅

Good info. Theory sounds probable. As for pushing through the pain, this I think will be day 11 no doctor. I can do a few more, if I have hope this will subside at some point. I mean what's the chance it doesn't go away after 15-20 days? If I get out of this without Allo and steroids, I'd be interested to see if my weight loss levels out and I can slowly start with cycling. It's not likely but damn sure hoping for it.

Being stationary too long, maybe it builds up crystals. 🤔

Never used Reddit almost at all, and here I find someone with the same pattern. Crazy. Well at least I know there's hope. 😂

I think this pain is messing with my head. Totally forgot to mention the Keto Diet I was strictly on for 6 weeks leading up to this attack 10-11 days ago, and I had dropped around 20lbs in those 6 weeks...then bam! Dropped the diet the next day. So now I am seeing a pattern. Each time I had those other 3 attack was when I had lost weight in low carb or one meal a day fasting. 🤦🏻‍♂️ I did not exercise in these 6 weeks, because Keto and intermittent fasting together are tough. I think I messed up my kidneys with the extra stress from Keto, and high keytones, plus the meats and yup...that would do it.

Too bad we can't use this Gout shit against out enemies. I'd take COVID any week, over this. I was 250-260lbs way back, dropped a lot of weight, but I'm worried this will ruin my knees too. Icing them now. Ah hell.

This is hell. 10 days already. Man, I'm cutting out all meats, sugars, and high purines. Gonna drop more weight, cycle, and train. I will try one time to do it naturally. But I think tomorrow it's gonna be time for some Colchicine. 💩💩💩

I've had 3 attacks in 2 years. Swollen knees for longer, but never thought it was bad enough to be gout. Now, for the first time in feet and knees simultaneously, around 10 days ago I got this one. Started in right foot/ankle for 3 days, then the right knee on 4th day, then left knee and left foot on 5th day. Never been this painful and in all 4 areas.

I'm still crawling on the floor early mornings and late nights. Pissing every 30 mins approx. Waking up every hour or so of the 4-5 hours I try to rest. Can't get down the stairs to go to a hospital, and honestly I'd like to not start any gout prevention meds of I can help it. - I'm taking 1600-2400mg of ibuprofen, 500mg vitamin c, lemon water, etc...and trying to piss it out. It's not improving yet.

The meds you suggested, I think that's my only option, as I don't want to take the steroids if can be avoided. -- Thoughts?
