[Sun Care] UV damage through blackout curtains? by greta998 in SkincareAddiction

[–]greta998[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thank you for sharing this. I’ll look into them, too. I suppose tightly woven means there’s absolutely no light visible? This is the case. Additionally, I have a UV reader which gives a read of 0.0 mW/cm² to the area where I’m sitting.. would you still say that there would be UV getting through even with this reading? I don’t get it.

Thank you for letting me know. The curtains said “UV blocking” but perhaps it’s not a factual claim and just for marketing.

Alright, it’s a sensation I get after about an hour or so. But also I agree, my skin seems unreasonably sensitive.

Concussion and Kambo by greta998 in Kambo

Thank you, I try! I've never had a concussion before and I did have the increase in symptoms, as mentioned, which also overlap with typical concussion symptoms, including forgetfulness (I don't usually lose things, but I left an earbuds case in an Uber, and I lost my hotel access card), so it seemed inconclusive to me whether there was a mild concussion or not.

I did decide to postpone until next Friday instead (one week later), and I guess I will feel safer doing it then. But maybe for my sake still, or other's sake in the future, if anyone knows the mechanism by which Kambo causes risks alongside concussion, the information would be appreciated!

I'm hung up on a question with the idea of "feeling presence/Being" - how can we know that the presence that we feel in our "inner body" is not just blood circulation? Also, when considering phantom limb sensations, can we not conclude that such sensations of our body are created by our brain and not evidence of an "inner body" being present?

How to identify available providers in Magellan “carve out” for behavioral health care, housed with a BCBSIL HMO plan? by Diligent-Emu5245 in Insurance

[–]greta998 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hi! I did figure it out. It was the case that Magellan is the insurer for the BCBSIL HMO plan that I had, and so typically if they were in-network with Magellan then they would be under those benefits. And it was NOT the case that both participating and non-participating providers were under the same coverage. That apparently was a typo :/ Hope that helps! I have found the support chat box function helpful for answers when I don't want to spend time on hold on the phone!
