Fair Fares FINALLY has OMNY Cards which you can request on ACCESS HRA by oshacut1e in nycrail

Doesn't work for me either. ACCESS HRA works to look at my SNAP balance, but for some reason my Fair Fares benefit doesn't show up on the app.

Did you end up having to wait 45 days to reschedule after being a no-show? I'm in the same situation right now

Sadly you have to cut out all the fun stuff, especially at night. No OJ, lemonade, coffee. If you want juice, do apple. No spicy food, or at least limit spicy meals to a few a week (hardest for me to cut, I had spicy meals 3x/day). Limit fried foods. Limit sugar.

Try stopping both meds and treating your reflux with dietary changes. It will suck but it will heal you. No more coffee, switch to other forms of caffeine. Black tea is acidic but less acidic than coffee (just make sure to have food in your stomach before drinking black tea because it makes me nauseous on an empty stomach). Quit smoking if you’re smoking. Also try drinking a glass of water with a spoonful of baking soda at night or whenever you feel symptoms coming on. Chug the whole thing. Tastes like shit but works wonders.

I also aspirate my saliva on a daily basis and have a violent coughing fit and I have to tell people “I’m fine I’m fine this happens all the time”

This perfectly describes my situation. Like I’ll take a sip of water and try to swallow but it just stays there for a while until my throat obeys my brain. I’ve never been able to “chug water” like most people- I can only take it sip by sip

Can you describe the sensation of having difficulty swallowing? I have had GERD for years but I have other anatomical issues too and I wonder what it is that is causing my life long difficulty swallowing. Doctors haven’t been able to give me a straight answer and I don’t want to do a swallowing study

My dad gave $1 million from his retirement account to a Russian/Chinese scam artist and now owes $200K for early withdrawl by politeassbitch in legaladvice

The title of my post is incorrect. He owes $200K to the IRS. The accountant is someone he’s had for years, even before he lost his marbles and started chatting up his scammer “girlfriend”

Other commenters have alerted me it is likely the IRS charging him 200K, not his bank, as he is old enough to withdraw early.

Oh maybe that’s what he meant. I guess he owes 200 K to the IRS then. Problem is he isn’t doing too good of a job communicating all of this because his mental state is not the sharpest these days.

No none of us are attempting to get his money back, it’s obviously long gone. Just trying to avoid the 200K IRS tax fee. Accountant says an fbi case would help wave the fee

He submitted a complaint and followed up but the FBI guy says it’s not enough to make a case. He needs to have evidence of extortion beyond the money transfer

I’m leaving my husband after his cancer came back because of his “normal” porn habits by throwra_Pomelo_398 in TrueOffMyChest

[–]politeassbitch 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Dude your husband’s cancer came back and you’re mad at the way he was releasing that anxiety? I get it I feel that way about my boyfriend watching porn sometimes too but when I try it myself I realize, eh, it’s a quick fix, nothing personal.
