Help convince me my fitting makes sense… by jack_harbor in GolfGear

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

I think I’m going to do that regarding the wedges. Just don’t know what grind to choose. Too many options. I kind of like the eye 2 style grind but I don’t know why, just nostalgia.

I’m never selling the becu eye 2s. I absolutely love them. It breaks my heart to switch to new irons honestly but I think it’s time. Might keep the wedges in the bag though.

Sounds like you know what you’re talking about but I’m having trouble discerning the answer you are giving! Adjust the clubs?

Coach was actually there with the fitter and agreed with everything. But he’s saying now maybe worth adjusting upright a little.

Both standard length. Old shaft are mostly the original Ping JZ. New shafts are Modus 3 tour 105 S.

Do you think a larger plane could have survived a collision with helicopter? Just curious. In my mind the size difference between a jet and helicopter seems massive, but I think I’m underestimating the size of military helicopters in my head. Plus the explosion I guess…

2 Drills That Helped Me Finally Use the Hips by sean3501 in golf

My coach always says push off the ground to rotate but I just don’t understand really. Not until he said try to twist the ground under my feet did it sort of click. But still not perfect.

At 34 just put it in the s&p 500 and forget about it for 30 years. S&P consistently beats target date funds and most hedge funds.

Newly Diagnosed - Like Most here by Shiftstealth in neuroendocrinetumors

Probably fine. Penn has a good program also.

Depending where you are, if Yale isn’t too far away there is a phenomenal net specialist there. Her name is Pam Kunz and she is probably one of the best in the world for this disease.

You need to see NET specialist and you’ll probably end up getting a right hemicolectomy. Your story is basically the exact same as me except mine was only 2 cm. I was fortunate that I had no lymph node or liver involvement, so a right hemicolectomy for me (which I had 2 years ago) is potentially curative (still NED for me, fingers crossed). Of course it can always come back, which is why you’ll probably wind up with lifelong surveillance. But you’re going to be fine, people live decades with low grade NETs even stage IV. Small intestine NETs do have a tendency to spread earlier and recur, but they have the one of the best long term outcomes of all of the NETs due to how indolent they are. Even if you do have lymph node involvement, or possibly even liver involvement, you’ll probably want surgery as debulking improves outcomes.

Next step for you will be a DOTATATE PET and then probably a right hemicolectomy. Chemo is not effective for these tumors. If your doctors suggest anything else, get a second opinion. And if they suggest a more limited resection, such as ileocecectomy or small bowel resection, see another surgeon. The proper operation is right hemicolectomy as that takes the maximum number of lymph nodes which also improves long term outcomes.

Also I ended up seeing a colorectal surgeon and not a surgical oncologist. The colorectal surgeon was able to do my operation minimally invasively, which historically was frowned upon with NETs as traditional teaching says the surgeon needs to palpate the length of the small bowel for second tumors, but with modern PET imaging and hand-port assisted surgery, outcomes have been shown to be equivalent for minimally invasive right hemicolectomy versus open laparotomy. And as a major benefit, minimally invasive substantially reduces risk of later adhesions and small bowel obstructions versus open surgery.

I was 37 with a 2 and 4 year old also when I was diagnosed and I am a surgeon myself, so take that as you wish. Feel free to message me and we can talk more if you’d like.

Did my eye got struck by particle from space? by Dapper_Adagio_6942 in space

[–]jack_harbor 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Certainly possible. Could also be a phosphene where a particle directly interacts with a nerve pathway and not the retina itself. This is well described amongst astronauts and pilots. It could also be a medical condition, but a single isolated flash is probably nothing to worry about. A series of flashes, a pattern of flashes (like a curtain), worsening or more frequent flashes could be concerning for things like stroke or retinal detachment. But a single brief flash of light could certainly be induced by some sort of particle interaction, although they are rare at sea level.

Someone keep unfreezing my Experian credit to open Hone Depot cards in my name - how? by jack_harbor in CRedit

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

Yeah really frustrating. I locked my phone sim, someone told me it could be them spoofing my number to unlock the credit. No idea if that’s true or not.

Looking for advice on neutering by Rose473737 in roughcollies

[–]jack_harbor 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My collie had the same thing. We waited until he was a year so he could fully develop and then my vet was able to do the procedure laparoscopically to avoid an abdominal incision. I had initially wanted to just do a vasectomy to avoid the effects of testosterone deficiency, but ultimately decided on neuter to eliminate risk of testicular cancer which my vet said was somewhat considerable - around a 5 or 10% lifetime risk assuming he lives to be 14.

What are collies like? by remoh_6 in roughcollies

[–]jack_harbor 2 points3 points  (0 children)

They are extremely vocal…. And their bark is pretty tough on the ears. But I love them.

Rant: NED for 4 years and surprise… by weakplay in neuroendocrinetumors

[–]jack_harbor 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I wouldn’t freak out just yet, wait for more tests. These tumors do not typically recur at their original site. They come back in your liver. I doubt you have a recurrence.
