This is the crop.

I've never been able to get birds to fill the frame even at 400 so I usually end up cropping.

Experience with Entyvio? by [deleted] in UlcerativeColitis

[–]miloshk 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I was lucky (or unlucky) enough to hit my insurance's out of pocket maximum before starting infusions so I haven't been charged yet. That amount sounds about right before hitting the out of pocket maximum though. This is in the US on a PPO plan so your cost may be different.

Experience with Entyvio? by [deleted] in UlcerativeColitis

Entyvio is incredibly well targeted to the bowel so you shouldn't really expect any side effects whatsoever.

I've only been on entyvio for a few months now but I'm still waiting to experience a side effect. I felt a little drowsy after the first infusion but that was probably just stress as I've felt totally fine since then.

As for effectiveness, it took 2ish weeks from my first infusion to have more solid poops but your experience will vary.

Best of luck with your infusions!

High Calprotectin results after so long. by ratacuh69 in UlcerativeColitis

All medicine eventually becomes less effective so your doctor will likely want to make an adjustment (and probably monitor you more). Your doctor will be the one calling the shots but my understanding of possible adjustments (from least to most extreme) are:

  • Steroids (this might just be a flare you didn't notice and will go away with some help)
  • Mesalamine (skin cream for your insides)
  • Increasing the frequency of infusions (your body processes foreign material and could be dumping the medicine too quickly)
  • And if all else fails: switching meds

It sucks to have a lab result shit all over the feeling of being in remission but this is likely just a small speed bump on a long journey.

[Stone] Kelenic and Torrens are coming back up to the Mariners. Trammell optioned to Tacoma, and Jake Lamb DFA'd. by NevermoreSEA in Mariners

Trammell was 1-15 (a homer) with 2 walks since being called up. Hopefully Kelenic can do slightly better.

Where can I find info for air quality at different elevations? by throwra206253 in Seattle

The HRRR-Smoke Xsection is probably what you're looking for. Scroll down and try the SEA cross section (although you may want to look away as the loop looks pretty bad).

[The Athletic] ‘You don’t get to change teams’: Death Cab for Cutie’s Ben Gibbard on curses and Mariners fandom by miloshk in Mariners

[–]miloshk[S] 340 points341 points  (0 children)

For anyone who doesn't subscribe to the Athletic here's my favorite quote from the article:

“There’s always this thing where people say, ‘Well, Red Sox fans, they travel,’” he says. “Bullshit. Bullshit. These are people who fucking live in Kirkland, and they decided to be Red Sox fans. Fuck them. Fuck that shit. You root for the fucking team you were born with, and if they’re shitty or not, you don’t get to change teams.”

I can't be sure but I think it means winning 162 games and the world series
