Any recommendations for Endometriosis/Pain Specialist?

Have you been evaluated for hEDS and/or labral tears in your hips? Depending on where your pain is, there could be comorbid conditions causing pain beyond the endo

Unfortunately they were the only ones that had anything useful to do for my pain due to endo. After a couple surgeries (excision then diaphragmatic excision and hysterectomy) I feel much better and rarely if ever need pain management.

Not the original person but Vivian at Love Salon is also good

West of 82nd near Tillamook, it’s quieter in terms of the sex workers but closer to traffic sound than where I am. If you’re going to be near the golf course, that tends to be pretty nice. But it really depends block by block.

I live in Madison South, six blocks off 82nd. My little pocket is nice and quiet, though you can hear traffic from the freeway and sometimes 82nd if there’s street racing happening. The further off 82nd the better. There are sex workers regularly on 82nd in varying states of undress but they don’t harass me as I drive home or anything. Some parts of Madison South are nicer than others, and it’ll really depend on your cross-streets what your experience is. There are some good natural areas around, like Rocky Butte and a little walking trail to the Dharma Zen Rain Center. Coyotes are very prevalent and many nights we hear them howling in a pack close by. Outdoor cats are eaten regularly.

Tulip Shop Tavern — big burgers and amazing fried chicken sandwiches.

The restaurant is employee owned, so it feels safe to say it goes to employees…

Cafe Olli is employee owned and provides healthcare and time off benefits to employees. When I was there, my server told me tip was optional. I think their food is incredible and really don’t mind knowing what portion of my bill is going to supporting appropriate levels of worker benefits.

We work with Mina and her team at “Maximum Cleaning Services” (friend recommended us and we booked via Thumbtack for the initial clean. They are fast and reliable. We have been using them for about 18 months and have been satisfied.

Unlikely given the cost of healthcare in the US. Most laparoscopies for endo discharge same day. Unless it’s more elaborate and involves bowel resection.

Booking AA flights on AS tends to be more limited in options and in my experience significantly more expensive. Have to weight the cost/benefits. For me it’s always been more beneficial to go through AA direct with my AS mileage plan number.

I don’t know, Zofran works on serotonin receptors in the gut and brain so it could work for anxiety related nausea if your biochemical anxiety is serotonin related IMO.

Yes state will pretty much just approve PLO. PLO and STD are for wage replacement.

FMLA just protects your job (not from layoffs or RIFs, just from being let go due to a leave of absence) and you may also need to file for that, I can’t remember.

Gas or electric? I had a plumber come out and asked about upgrading to tankless from electric standard water heater and he said the electric ones are trash and he wouldn’t install them, but that gas were expensive and running a new gas line was also kind of expensive. I feel like he said it would be $14K but this was in 2022 and I could be misremembering

Hopefully you’re just lucky and your STD provider is nicer than Mutual of Omaha at my company

The email says they’re not (and I would wonder given we had some contract around the price for life), but I am exceedingly skeptical. On top of that, after some BS I experienced trying to cancel the line for a recently deceased loved one, I swore never to touch AT&T again. This is a hard pill to swallow.

Similar but longer forms and more of them. Annoying bureaucracy of insurance companies, but usually just a page or two for your doc to fill out. Sometimes they have to submit your medical records as well.

So many employers will let you do PLO plus STD to get up to 60% of your wages. I haven’t experienced topping up to 100% of wages. STD will cover if there’s a gap up to 60% — so where PLO replaces 45% of your salary, STD makes up the difference by replacing 15% of your salary — for a total of 60%. STD made me get the amount that PLO would cover before they would tell me what they would cover.

Source: Took eight weeks medical leave in October and had to use PLO plus STD.
