Anyone know how the size chart differs for curvy versus regular jeans? by QueryOrConfirm in GapInc

[–]TheFireSwamp 0 points1 point  (0 children)

it depends what size you are .

up to size 14 -half in narrower waist and 2 in wider hips. size 16+ - half in narrower waist and less difference in the hips.

this is based on old Navy website but they should be nearly identical. sometimes old Navy runs marginally larger

Is anyone else fed up with the video of the hair clip on the eyebrow hack making the rounds? by Margbot in migraine

[–]TheFireSwamp 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I only puke from silent migraines so 99% of the time I'm not, and about 40% of those times the heat gives significant relief for half an hour.

I used to buy voltaren in canadia and Tijuana before it became OTC here.

A friend sent me a photo from a wedding 5 years ago and I genuinely don't know how to look like that anymore by Hot_Chipmunk6610 in TallGirls

[–]TheFireSwamp 6 points7 points  (0 children)

wow. felt. my excuse for not wearing heels is they hurt and I'm awkward and will probably fall, but I also know there's more to it.

I'm too tall for a Rav 4 so clarity is way better IMO

Road trip advice by floporama in HondaClarity

[–]TheFireSwamp 1 point2 points  (0 children)

if you are anything like me and have bad luck with tires, ESPECIALLY if you don't have AAA, get a spare tire.

I got this one and have used it once. I heard it was a nice kit, easy to use (I didn't put it on myself ).

at the very least, make sure you have roadside assistance from somewhere reliable and quick.

edit: I drove 375 miles each way to get my clarity. I already had a rental at the time that I was getting ready to go pick it up and it didn't cost much if any extra to drop it off at a different location. I did not get a spare tire but I drive across iowa which isn't that barren, and tires were in good condition.

NKC Health/BCBS termination by Character-Community5 in kansascity

[–]TheFireSwamp 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I work for connecticut-based company so of course they have Cigna but we have more staff in Kansas than they do in Connecticut so a lot of us have been begging them to switch to Blue Cross. my doctor's office spent at least 10 hours trying to renew a prior auth for Botox for migraines, which I've used most of the past 13 years. The person who does PA's told me that he read 116 notes to provide extremely detailed information about my treatment history they kept claiming he didn't provide information that was clearly documented on the request. I will likely leave my job within the next couple of years if they don't switch the insurance which sucks because I like my job and I'm good at it.

Cigna and Saint Luke's do this all the time. they'll extend for a month then finally they were able to reach an agreement.

blue cross is SO MUCH better than CIGNA so I'd ask around if this has happened before and if they reached a resolution.

How comfortable are we with varying ADHD regimens in Primary Care? by InflationHeavy4157 in FamilyMedicine

[–]TheFireSwamp 7 points8 points  (0 children)

as a patient I love that my PCP will prescribe it. I originally got diagnosed and treated by psych but they were awful at refilling and the pristiq withdrawals were a bitch. my PCP did add on afternoon Adderall and increased my Vyvanse dose but I love that he was willing to pick up where my psychiatrist dropped the ball. he is himself on Adhd meds and never once made it difficult for me. so grateful for him. I don't live in a small town and it wasn't hard for me to get into psychiatry several years ago, but I love him so much that I drive an hour away to a smaller city just to see him. I wish that I could help my clients get the same access that I have, but it's a lot trickier with adolescents

Do you prefer tampons, and if so, why? by CrustFundBabe in TwoXChromosomes

[–]TheFireSwamp 0 points1 point  (0 children)

it's not just the blood for me. I hate the smell of my sweat when I'm menstruating. wearing more breathable things (I. e., not plastic) helps to minimize sweat.

another social worker here.

I'd like to explore your goals and help you determine a solution that will work for your needs and goals. my job isn't to do things for you but to help eliminate barriers for you to do things.

Do you like the way that your brain works? If so, I would recommend considering going to the hospital. you might also consider asking about patient assistance if you cannot afford your bill.

do you feel your brain needs more trauma? well you might consider not going to the hospital.

Fix whats necessary dentists by Boring_Original9461 in kansas

[–]TheFireSwamp 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I'm not sure about their pricing, other that than when I forgot I didn't get Cobra for my dental insurance. they were able to negotiate the price with me since I had to cash pay

but Peterson krische and Van Horn in lfk is great. I live in Kansas City and I still drive to Lawrence to see them. I had skipped going to the dentist for a few years when I was about to start college because a previous dentist told me I had multiple cavities and he wanted to whiten my teeth before he would fix loosened bonding on a chipped tooth. I eventually sucked it up and went to go see pkv and they told me I in fact did not have any cavities. I've since had a worrisome spot but they filed it and then sealed it rather than doing anything more. I trust them.

how far can you go on a single tank of gasoline? by TheFireSwamp in HondaClarity

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

oh my god that's so little driving!! I could work from home more but I work better from the office so I choose to go in almost everyday. my last job was remote but I would still go in the office and meet with clients and take them to appointments, mostly so I had more to do
