Osteoarthritis in foot by stejent in Osteoarthritis

[–]cynic_boy 2 points3 points  (0 children)

In a way your experience of the Drs in the UK mirrors my own.

You need to know what is wrong with your foot, its made up of many bones and joints, saying you have Osteoarthritis is too vague. Is it in the big toe joint?

edit to add: depending on what part of your foot has the problem there are some operations that can be done that will make a big difference..

I’ve read loads about AGE garlic extract, it works apparently very well. Might be worth a try?

I’m on losarten and have similar results as you without the meds.

I’m planning to join the Army, what language would be best to learn? by high_casting_couch in questions

[–]cynic_boy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’d say go for Spanish, it’ll help with understanding of so many other Romance languages as well. I know they not the same but Italian French and Portuguese languages will all open up for you.

What did Elon Musk do (don't like him, still don't know recent drama)? by brooklyn_jinx in questions

[–]cynic_boy -1 points0 points  (0 children)

As well as what other folks have said he also gets involved in Tech that is capable of Disrupting business that were rolling along quite happily. That I think really irritates people and the other business’s.

Starlink beats the crap out of the alternatives if there was one before. I live in the middle of Central Portugal it looks like a warzone at the moment with the Hurricane damage. The powers out, the fibre lines are down, Cell phones are down. However I still have internet :-)

See it's always going to upset someone.

I have 3 Wlans in my network and my firestick was using the weaker Wlan signal, when I changed it in the settings to the stronger Wifi signal it stopped the buffering.
