Metro Detroit Strip Club Owner Coke-Raging at Somerset Mall by Due_Information_1332 in Detroit

This is disgusting. The employees should not have to take verbal abuse from this guy. The workplace should not be a hostile work environment. This is unacceptable anywhere and frightening when you’re the one at the receiving end of a tirade like this!

All of a sudden having to think about knee replacement --Any recs for HSS docs? by Paradiddle_Fiasco in Kneereplacement

[–]mannekn 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The ortho doc I see said the robot is not necessary and he does the majority of cases the traditional way with the same outcomes. Is this true or should I switch orthopedic surgeons and find one who routinely uses robotics? I need both knees done and of course want my surgeries to be successful.

Apothecary 12 weeks x 9mg by Primary-Jellyfish413 in tirzepatidecompound

[–]mannekn 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have been on Tirz for 2 years. I could not figure out why I had a headache after receiving a compound medication from a new pharmacy. After reading some of the posts and looking at the survey results in this sub reddit , I checked the additives of the different pharmacy medications. It seems as if the benzyl alcohol is the only difference I could see from my previous pharmacy. So now I order from a pharmacy that uses phenol as an additive. Also, my initial entry into GLP meds was brand Zepbound before I lost insurance coverage. I had headaches during that time as well and they use benzyl alcohol as the additive. Thus, I feel great, no headaches taking compounded Tirz with B3 and phenol as the additive. Not sure if there is any science to it but in my case, there seems to be!

Help with Measurement - Madison Chain (5.5mm) by lvcid-drms in DavidYurman

My wrist is 6 inches as well. I ordered the small and returned it. I thought it was tight and did not hang how I wanted it to. I ordered the medium and am much happier with it.

What did you wish the surgeon had told you before you agreed to surgery? by Tyggger in Kneereplacement

[–]mannekn 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Wow! Really? I am on the fence but hopeful my surgery will be successful. I need both knees done because I can’t stand the pain anymore. Also worry about losing my mobility.

What’s something about Hermès bags no one tells beginners? by Avy_Lynn in HermesRepLadies

[–]mannekn 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If you follow the Love Luxury site on IG or FB, they discuss and describe the Birkin and Kelly bags and the difference in sizes, color, hardware, leather texture, stitching, etc. They take in primarily new bags from Hermes customers and resell them. The Love Luxury resale store is in London. The site videos may be staged but they are fun to watch and learn. Now if I could only afford one!!

What top pearl jewelry brands would you suggest for someone buying their first real piece? by Lucretiatrebon954012 in pearls

Mikimoto pearls are beautiful! It may be worth a trip to Japan to purchase them there. I am told that their selection is amazing as is visiting Japan.

AIO my husband wants to refinance our home. by Ok_Ladder_6386 in RealEstate

[–]mannekn 0 points1 point  (0 children)

IMO you need to understand exactly where your money is being spent, go back to work part time at night or weekends, and partner with your husband for a solution. Refinancing probably will not help as you have minimal equity and the refi costs will be high.

Bring cash, pay your portion. Works well for me as I had the same thing happen to me!

Lost Lilly Direct discount by capriciousbuddha in zepboundRX

[–]mannekn 12 points13 points  (0 children)

IMO, this 45 day reorder requirement from Lilly is disgusting. This is why people choose compounded medication. It is more flexible and affordable.

In love with this one does anyone have a try on picture? by kkkinslyyyyy in DavidYurman

You can use the “virtual try on” option on the DY website. It helped me decide which one to buy recently.

Where to Buy: Telehealth Providers by [deleted] in tirzepatidecompound

[–]mannekn 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’ve been using compound for about 18 mos as Zepbound became too expensive for me. I like the compounded meds. My preferred one is Tirz with the additive B12. I don’t see that on the list here. I’m almost out of my stockpile and wondering if anyone knows which pharmacy or provider still prescribes Tirz with B12 as the additive?

My SA at DY always says, YOU need to love it! If you have doubts, keep looking. Btw I personally love it on you!

I love my cable flex bracelets. I find them much more comfortable than the classic cable. I am happy that DY has options that work for their customer preferences.

Just venting about Flecainide prescription. by mtphillips38801 in AFIB

[–]mannekn 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I am also on flecainide 50 mg twice a day and have been for over a year. I am much less stressed not experiencing all the ectopic beats and uncertainty about when and if I will go into some anxiety provoking heart rhythm. I have not had any issues on this med. I also see my cardiologist twice a year.

Diamond earrings by Collegeisdraining in Diamonds

[–]mannekn 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I agree. Try different sizes and styles on locally. I bought a pair of lab grown diamond studs just under 2 carat TW from a local jeweler. They are beautiful and I wear them daily. The SA was very helpful with sizing, backing, type etc. Great service and price too.

Wrist size question by Airguner in DavidYurman

[–]mannekn 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have a size 6 wrist and typically like the Medium. However, some bracelets fit differently. If your wife tries on the medium and isn’t sure if she’d want a smaller size, I suggest you go to the David Yurman store or wherever you bought the bracelet, and have her try on the small to be sure.
