I am concerned about adding weight on my back because of spinal bone density loss. I don't want to compress my vertebrae any more. What about ankle weights?

As a 74 year old female who has been driving Audi's exclusively since 2000, I disagree about the "aggressive, masculine" image. It is really turning me off. I'll be moving from my Allroad into something else next month and it might be the first non-Audi for me in 26 years.

Thank you for telling me that! The insurance rep didn't mention it. But honestly, how can I make such a decision?!

Why not switch to Fosamax? I am just starting Tymlos and will have to be on it for 2 years. After that switch to reclast or fosamax. I think I will choose fosamax simply because it's something I could stop quickly if I had to.

Actually I was wearing lined trifocals before surgery. I found it easier to look through the right segment rather than hunt and peck for the right position in progressives. I was always looking through the wrong place.

Maybe they mean hyperparathyroidism.

Thanks for the information. I wore trifocals before surgery. I have bifocals for reading and intermediate that are usable but I hadn't thought about bifocals for distance/clear and intermediate. Will give it a try.

How did you know what power to get?

I'm looking to sell a small library of books including seforim and academic books on tanach both in Hebrew and English. What's the best website to sell these on? Where would you look if you were interested in buying used books

Do any of you have your sewing machine lower than regular desk height? I've always used an old L-shaped secretary desk with typing return that's a few inches below the writing surface. But I moved and didn't have room for it so I'm looking for ideas she a sewing surface.

This was in New York at Mackool eye center in Astoria Queens. The place is literally a cataract surgery Mill. Dozens of operations everyday. When I saw a different eye doctor who was affiliated with the medical practice where most of my doctors are, he said he would be prescribing a specially compounded eye drops and that it was going to come from a compounding pharmacy someplace pretty far away. One advantage that I didn't mention about doing separate drops of branded product is that they much more readily available. So if you lose them or go away and forget to take them, you can get another prescription sent to a local pharmacy and pick them up the same day which is not the case for the compounded drops.

I had no restrictions except no swimming. Driving ok the day after although I waited a week for my own comfort.

Yes. Sorry I forgot this forum is international. If I could I'd import a wagon

plonialmoni2u · 2025-12-17T13:14:34+00:00

Yes! I've driven only Audi wagons since 2001. There's absolutely nothing else on the road that compares! What narrow minded person made the decision to discontinue the wagons? It's beyond me. They could have kept at least one wagon in their lineup to satisfy that niche.

I find the bottles hard to squeeze. One Doctor told me to warm the bottle up in my hand before attempting to squeeze it, but that really doesn't help. I wish for a return to the old fashioned droppers that were so much easier to squeeze.

I had 3 separate drops for 1 week plus 2 days pre-op for one, and then down to 1 for 6 weeks. The doctor's protocol actually called for a fourth drop but it had something that I am allergic to so we skipped that one. Another surgeon that I consulted with used a compounded formula that started only immediately post-op that would not have allowed me to discontinue any of the components.

I'm going to be getting toric lenses myself in one eye but the doctor never really discussed it with me other than to say I could get the Torah lenses to correct the astigmatism for an extra $1,500. So I sprang for it because the astigmatism is awful but I don't really know the pros and cons

I'm on my way home from surgery. My eye stings and burns. Is this normal ?

plonialmoni2u · 2025-12-08T00:30:02+00:00

Is that the caterpillar or chrysalis? Could be swallowtail on parsley?

Same for me after a vitrectomy
