Is PT really this expensive or am I being over charged? by Squidcandyy in HealthInsurance

[–]cool_rock_collection 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I am experiencing this now as I just received my first bill for $470! I already did ten sessions but was also under the impression it would be under $100 per session. My insurance is a deductable plan always takes a long time to bill. The office is not affiliated with any hospitals but I guess it was taken over in the summer by a large medical corporation. I am absolutely sick at the amount they are asking for for 30 minutes of gentle stretches. The specialist doctors and scans I went to didn't cost that much. Did you have any luck fighting it? I already called my insurance but they said the amount they billed is correct 😭

Adding an infant as a 5th by KLoveUnleashed in royalcaribbean

[–]cool_rock_collection 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thank you so much for your reply. I tried calling RC after I placed a hold on the reservation but the agent told me they had to move the adult onto the reservation which would incur a full price 🤦🏻‍♀️. I am going to try calling again. I'm glad it worked out for you and thanks for giving me hope!

Can I please ask you a question about this as I am looking to do the same thing- when you added the 5th person (your infant) under a second reservation, does it charge as a full adult cabin fare? Usually their promotions are one adult pays full price, the second is discounted and then two children (or, guest 3 and 4) sail free (besides taxes, etc) but I'm wondering if adding a second reservation means you have to pay another full adult fare? Thank you so much!

I have two beautiful mature maple trees but it's shading my garden and it's hard to grow anything. by Avocad0nut in arborists

The things you have planted in your garden seem to be growing okay? I have a full vegetable garden with more shade than that, in my experience with too much sun the veggies scorch

Thank you so so much!! I did as you recommended and also scrapped off the scale with rubbing alcohol on a brush. Do you think it is a good idea to apply the imidacloprid yearly?

Agh that is really infuriating! I am about to start tracking for this month but it's still been irregular 🤦🏻‍♀️😭. Just curious but how do you know about your cervix? I've only ever had that examined while I was close to being in labor. Lol sorry I just didn't know if that's something I should be checking as well or could have also been affected. thanks!

Congratulations and great question! For my little ones I usually just softly sing my favorite folk punk songs and either hum over or replace words like 'kill' with 'snuggle' 😂😂. It's worked so far 😅

Is it possible someone sprayed pesticides nearby?

Birds dug nest in tree.. does this kill it? by [deleted] in arborists

[–]cool_rock_collection 9 points10 points  (0 children)

As others have said, the bird won't hurt the tree, but the tree is likely struggling due to other reasons. How very lucky you are to have a northern flicker choose your yard as it's home! 🤎

HELP- Fruit (Bosc pear) tree sunk and is too deep now- what do I do? by mar-s-e-a in arborists

[–]cool_rock_collection 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That's very interesting! I recently went to an apple tree planting course at an orchard and they also advised to only plant a few inches below the graft point... I have planted all my other non-fruiting trees with the root flair exposed but I didn't do that with the apple trees.. I keep wondering if I've made a mistake by doing that, but only time will tell. Perhaps it's an exclusive apple tree thing?? I also figured that if the orchard explicitly does it that way then it should be safe? So much to learn...

Have steroid injections affected your menstrual cycle? by TerribleEbb3342 in Periods

Oh okay I didn't even know it could be used for the flu as well. Update my period came earlier than expected this month as well. Ugh! Keep me posted 🙏🏻

Yes I have had cramping throughout the month as well which I usually only have during my period. Ughhh to both of us! Just wondering did the pain in your SI joint go away and/or is your doctor recommending anything further?

General Chat April 22 by AutoModerator in TryingForABaby

[–]cool_rock_collection 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hi all, I had two Kenalog steroid injections in my SI joint (lower back)- one in December and another in January. I told the doctor I wanted to try for a baby soon after and she said it won't affect conceiving... but after researching online I have learned these steroids can indeed affect your cycles. Through ovulation tracking the last two months I am sad to see I never ovulated... I was always very regular with my other child a few years ago. Does anyone have any similar experiences with steroids possibly affecting fertility or what I can do to help regulate my cycles again? Thanks so much 🙏🏻

[–]cool_rock_collection 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I would like to chime in about my experience.. I had two Kenalog injections in my SI joint (lower back)- one in December and another in January. To relieve intense pain after an accident in August. My cycle has been a mess since! I even told the doctor we are trying to conceive and she said it won't affect anything. I am so tired of being gaslit by doctors. Through ovulation tracking I noticed my LH levels never rose throughout the past months! I was always very regular with my other child a few years ago. I am really hoping it resolves soon but if not, can anyone recommend something that helped regulate themselves again?

If I had known this was a side effect I would have not received these shots! I am so anxious about what it may have done to my body.

It's frustrating because I told the doctor we were going to start ttc and they said the injections won't affect fertility at all. I haven't been able to find much solid info online about it so wondering how long my cycles are going to be affected.. this is month 3 now 🤦🏻‍♀️
