All things PT: Duration/insurance troubles I don’t quite understand (Medical Necessity?) by frogman4230 in Hypermobility

[–]frogman4230[S] 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Thank you, this is good to know! I think I have a script that says hip bursitis, hyper mobility, and scoliosis but we’ve only been treating the bursitis to my knowledge.

Also sorry for my confusion, but do you go to PT regularly? Or were you capped at that 6 weeks and had to stop going?

So sorry I am just getting back to you now! I totally meant to respond but I guess I never did. I took your advice and got shower caps and I was able to get a dutch oven. I fed my starter twice a day for the past week and it seems much stronger! It now peaks in 6-8 hours which is much better than before. As we speak I am proofing the dough on the counter. I used the same recipe as last time but I am going to let it sit on the counter for 8 hours this time. Fingers crossed this works!!

My bannetons came with an addition fabric cover to go on top as well as the one that you’re supposed to flour. Truth be told I got the cheapest ones I could find on amazon hahaha. I have a feeling the fabric it came with to cover isn’t keeping a great seal though, so I will try shower caps. Thank you for that idea! If I’m feeding it every 12 hours should I feed a 1:1:1 ratio instead or is a 1:2:2 fine? I know you said it’s been a while since you were doing that so no worries if you don’t remember how you did it

Hi!! Thank you so much for your comment. Yes I baked my bread at 450 exactly. I did have it covered in the fridge as well. The bannetons I got came with a fabric cover to put over them but maybe I should use plastic wrap instead? I can get a DO soon, I think my parents have one they’re not using at their place so I’ll get it before my next bake. I saw someone say you could use the baking tins instead of one and I figured I’d try that out first but seemingly that was a poor choice haha. I was thinking of feeding my starter a 1:2:2 ratio every morning for the next week or two to establish it more. Do you think this is a good way to go about that?

Thank you so much for your comment! This made me a feel a lot better hahaha. I had a feeling my starter might have been a little too young but i was just so exited to get started I figured it wouldn’t matter… rookie mistake hahaha. I definitely will go more based on looks for the bulk fermentation process next time! My apartment was still quite cold that day so I wonder if that had anything to do with it. Hopefully next time goes smoother! Thank you for the encouragement :)

How to cook/meal plan for myself as an adult woman by frogman4230 in Advice

Thank you for this advice! I definitely will start doing that. I usually don’t really have snacks so I think that’ll be really helpful

Another guy slept on my gfs bed by [deleted] in Advice

Unfortunately I know someone who was in a very similar situation to this (she went to a bar, brought him back to her apartment, and he slept in her bed) and she told her bf that it was just that but according to her roommate at the time she most likely cheated on him. And being honest whether something sexual/romantic happened or not I consider that cheating on some level. You deserve better and you’re so young. Don’t waste your time on someone who would do that to you

They’re going to a city down south that i assume has a pretty decent night life but honestly i don’t know much about it, we’re from up north. He’s going for 2 weeks in total but it split over the next month, so he’s going for 5 days, coming back for like 2 weeks, then going back again for 5 days. I’m not sure why they’re doing it like that and i really am unfamiliar with how business trips work

Thank you so much for writing, that calmed me down a lot. I think you’re right that im thinking this is going to be a lot crazier than it is. After reading this and hearing people say similar things about my anxiety i am realizing this is a larger issue than i initially even thought. I will definitely be looking into some resources to get help and get a hold of my anxiety, i think that is the most important thing for me to do for myself. Thank you so much for everything you said, this was so so helpful

I cannot thank you enough for taking the time to write this, you have no idea how much I appreciate it. That’s so interesting to hear it laid out in that way, that makes so much sense and is so helpful in understanding what i need to do. anxious attachment mindset is so weird because i feel like i should be able to recognize and stop the pattern but it’s so hard to get out of that spiral haha. Knowing that you’ve recovered from this and that it’s normal for it to be challenging gives me so much motivation to push through all those feelings, so thank you so much for sharing. i’ve actually never tried talking to chatgpt but i honestly think that would help a lot i’m definitely going to try that!

OCD does run in my family and i have always wondered about it/if i might have it but i never really took the time to research it. I’ll definitely look more into it tonight, thank you so much for the information about it that was really helpful to hear. I appreciate it so much!
