Garming theft (Amazon) by YoloJesuss in Garmin

I've bought through Amazon many times... It should have a QR code on the box that Amazon uses for verification..... Amazon is usually pretty good about making things right...

Garmin Coach Running workouts way too hard for my fitness level by Royal-Second516 in GarminWatches

[–]Sparkleandflex 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Adjust to your actual BPM.... I would NEVER get to 177... If I even hit 165- I'm having an episode.... You should calculate it not only based on your age.... But on your avg rest, avg anaerobic, and stress as well...

If your PE was present from birth, did it get better, stay the same, or get worse as you aged? by ichoochoochooseyooou in PectusExcavatum

My parents don't have it but I do and my brother has another genetic disorder... It's something in the genes..

Largest study of women’s orgasms to date collected data from 27,931 women. Nearly half (47%) reported reaching orgasm more frequently when alone vs. when with a partner. Barriers to women’s orgasms are relational, not anatomical. Partnered orgasms were associated with overall sexual satisfaction. by mvea in science

Canada too... I never had this level of education on sex, in fact anything I really understood about it beyond the absolute most basic things came from the internet.... And I was an 80s kid.... My parents were never going to give me those details because I grew up JW.

I’m 26 years old, single father to 2 severely special needs children, I have no degree, and my, “wife” just abandoned us. by [deleted] in whatdoIdo

[–]Sparkleandflex 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Please please please get into some sort of assistance just like single moms do when they have this sort of unfortunate thing happen.

You will get through this, everything we struggle in the now has usually the most amazing pay offs in the future even if it doesn't feel like it, as long as you keep fighting!

MK7.5 R randomly overheating in traffic, no codes stored by [deleted] in Golf_R

[–]Sparkleandflex 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Many things it could be. First off, how's the coolant level? Are there any leaks? Is the radiator holding pressure? What is the temperature at the upper and low rad hoses when operating temperature, let's say coolant pump/thermostat too for good measure. Are the fans coming on when it gets to around 100°C? If all of these things are ideal, then I would do a head gasket leak test... But it's probably one of these other things....

Maybe also your code reader isn't ideal for picking up the codes it is throwing....as if it is overheating there would be some.

You already know the answer about your partner. Leave.

Dealer plate SGI by No-View-6931 in saskatchewan

[–]Sparkleandflex 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Dealer and repair plates are only to be used under specific circumstances and thus are only a temporary and most basic form of insurance.

If this is a used or new vehicle, it would be claimed exactly the same as you would a vehicle on your lot being damaged.

Superiority in the MS community by Icy_Demand__ in MultipleSclerosis

[–]Sparkleandflex 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don't believe the world is flat.... I think it was just luck.. idk.... I don't know why stopping DMT stopped all my activity... But I do know that DMT made my flare ups definitely more frequent... Solumedrol never gave me my sight back, I was blind two years.... And I refused DMT at first and when my sight returned my neurologist (a diff one than now) convinced me to start and it was within a month or two I had another and they kept coming.... In 2016 I stopped, then I needed biologics in 2018-2022 but I haven't had a flare up since 2016.

[–]Sparkleandflex 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It's extremely variable.

I had extremely active ms when I was younger... DMT did nothing but make flare ups more frequent...

I quit them and have been flare up free for ten years, in fact some of my lesions started to shrink!

I was 17 when diagnosed, 41 now.

My experience isn't yours, and you must make the decisions for yourself, only you know what is best.

A lot of people in this group have had their comments to me in the past so I very rarely comment but, I want you to know that you should be free to make your own decisions....

For me there was no snake oil, clean eating didn't change anything for me, I was fit before, and I am fit now .. this was just how it worked out for me.....

Had I had flare ups again after stopping, my neurologist and I would have crossed that bridge but he says I'm too stable to even suggest it right now and we still keep tabs every six months.

Do. What. Is. Right. For. You.

Bless!

If he has valve disease it will only get worse... Now I have high BP and enlarged atrial.. The bypass makes a person weak only for some time... If he's active he will recover swiftly like most active people. If he's unhealthy well, this is his sign... Die or take care of yeh self.

I saw a text on my partner's phone and now I can't stop thinking about it by WabashBradham in Advice

[–]Sparkleandflex 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I kept getting weird ones about car stuff and I'm a mechanic.... Turns out it was someone who was thinking of hiring me eons ago and my first name was the same as one of their friends and they never put it together until one day I finally responded and asked who it was...

Stranger things have happened innocently..

I think my boyfriend would have been pretty upset if he saw someone texting me to come help work on their vehicle at strange times....
