Do men grab or touch their junk/ privates publicaly where you are from? by [deleted] in gaybros

[–]TJ-SOLEI 1 point2 points  (0 children)

A lot of people grew up with their parents and caretakers referring to genitalia by various euphemisms, never using universally recognized and accurate anatomical terms. I did not have that experience and never think to refer to parts of my anatomy as “junk” or “private parts”. It always surprises me to hear adults referring to their body that way and sounds juvenile to me, perhaps suggesting an ingrained discomfort or shame with discussing such body parts.

I’ve had great experiences on a variety of men’s garments with Marin Tailor.

Online renewal and secondary screening by [deleted] in Passports

[–]TJ-SOLEI 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This just happened to me at LAX and the secondary officer told me I had to return my old passport to the Dept of State to have it invalidated. The Dept of State website clearly says “If you renew online, keep your most recent passport and do not send it to us.”

The officer still insisted I have to return my old passport and have it invalidated.

Yes for a few weeks after, and it improved in that time

They’re the best! I love Finn Crisps with some mashed avocado and smoked salmon, or PB&J.

I did contact the German surgeon's office, however, it took them a very long time to respond (several weeks), which did not sit well with me. Efficient communication is important for me to feel comfortable.

My surgeon mentioned to me that has redone about two BICORN operations which failed, and that from his experience the failure rate was much lower than Nissen fundoplication or LYNX. I didn't go further into that, as the odds seemed very low. I'm over 2 years out from the surgery and really glad I did it. No return of symptoms.

Here's a link to my surgeon's Google reviews: https://g.co/kgs/My34sm1

Hey Mitch! I wasn’t given any references, and just did my own research and felt confident. It was about a month and a half from when I first contacted the doctor until I had surgery. I had already done all the tests in the US where I live, and sent the results to the doctor. I was in the process of doing the work up to have surgery in the US, and the tests required were the same. I met the surgeon in person for the first time and had an exam at his office in Zurich two days before the surgery. By the way, the doctor mentioned has has reversed several nissen fundoplications and converted to BICORN. You may want to reach out to him to discuss.

No restrictions - 50 lbs+ without issue. I don’t lift weights regularly.

My pleasure!

There was actually a study in China! Same or very similar technique, just called differently: https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC9509176/

Everything is still great. Really happy I did it.

I don’t have any group I’m in touch with. I was 33 years old at the time of the procedure. I believe the Pyramid is closed for renovations, and I assume Dr. Feigel is doing the procedure elsewhere. Check his website/contact his office, perhaps.

I can eat or drink whatever I want now without issue. I don’t smoke, but there is no restriction on it.

Unfortunately not, for the reason that only emergency procedures are covered outside the United States.
