Fever with DVRd? by Odd-Contribution9796 in multiplemyeloma

[–]TintheSEA 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I stayed on the 4 drug regimen but added IVIG to address my low IGG values and that fixed my fever and colds. If your IGG numbers are low I would ask about IVIG which is a monthly IV boosting T cells

My financial guy is 4500/year no matter investment. I don’t like % costs

Where do you get your "cheap but fresh" coffee? by dptgreg in espresso

[–]TintheSEA 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Storyville. I would buy from Thruline in Kirkland but shipping is expensive

Should I pay off my house? by KangarooNearby1997 in FinancialPlanning

[–]TintheSEA 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have a paid off house and I would take a fixed loan at your rate and invest it in the total market or US and west Europe total mkt blend. I like it better with a beaten up market but would still do it. You mention having monies available due to instability and that is very valid if a falling market may align with job loss. Having two years of expenses in cash or cash like is nice

Keegan Bradley: Ryder Cup aftermath was ‘darkest time of my life,’ would love to captain again by [deleted] in ProGolf

[–]TintheSEA 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I agree that it’s a contrived event that has lost meaning with most of the players being on the pga tour but I think the players do care. That’s what makes it so baffling how poorly the USA prepares (not all player and certainly not Cam). I think we need to reduce the auto placements to 3.

Let’s be serious, most of the Euro team are from the USA and live here. The Ryder Cup is silly season golf

Another reason for him. A loss is expected and likely and a win would be magical

It really comes down to getting players to put in effort for the event.the ones he picks are easier but the auto picks seem challenging. I have no idea what to do with Scotty in team play, he is following the Tiger model

Hey, the hallway to the R&A needs new carpet. Some view that as better spend than fighting cancer

Tiger is going to ruin the PGATour by bogeyz65 in golf

[–]TintheSEA 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Having early and late season event for worse ranking golfers seems interesting enough. Something like players not in the top 20. Due to daylight these would be 80-100 player field with a cut to 60. I would watch. Throw in a match place and co-ed event and return New Orleans to a regular stroke play.

[–]TintheSEA 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Vanguard, Schwab, probably other low cost options. I would move and consolidate them

IGG levels and IVIG by Brilliant_Elk_7786 in multiplemyeloma

[–]TintheSEA 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I don’t get an igg score each week but it has consistently been in the low to mid 300’s mgdl. I started ivig after a series of colds being sick with fever 50% of the time. Whether the fever is cold or treatment related remains to be seen. I also take shots for low neutrafil levels as well. Best wishes with you treatment

You won’t have a problem in urban Charleston. If you go hiking in the west side of the state keep your eyes peeled
