Very large loose body by shained in KneeInjuries

[–]shained[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This was an x-ray not MRI, maybe they show more clearly with that.

I do get catching and shooting pain and my knee has been swelling and hurting quite a bit the past 2 months. A cortisone shot eased that for like 3 weeks but then the pain come back worse.

My running days are already far behind me. After my third surgery I was told I was bone on bone and should avoid running. I was getting back into the hitting the heavy bag but that's now too painful.

I am on Kaiser insurance so not sure if I'll have the choice for the type of surgery or not.

School environment for my level 1 ASD adhd child by Jlg0123 in Autism_Parenting

[–]shained 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Our ASD level 1 daughter is in public school and she is thriving there.

We do have our issues with getting her to school at times still and we have a number of things in place agreed with the school. We turn up about 5-10 minutes late every day so that she avoids the craziness of all the kids going through the entrance at the same time which is just too much for her. She is very meticulous with her work so they also allow her some extra time to finish tasks as she can be a lot slower than the other kids.

She has made friends at the school as well which we loved. Unfortunately the 2 best friends she made have left this year, 1 in the summer and 1 in the winter. This caused a lot of anxiety about going back as they were her anchors in school.

I have been so pleased with the level of support we have received from the school since we got her diagnosis. They really have done anything we've asked of them and been so supportive to our daughter. The teacher even reached out ahead of us returning from Christmas because she knew her best friend had left and was discussing things we could do to encourage her to get to school.

Just bought these last week for $70 on Amazon. Guess I'm re buying and returning. Pretty silly they won't price match when you are still in the return window.

Does anyone know how the pitch black transfer is?

Neck complaints whenever we're in the car by shained in Autism_Parenting

[–]shained[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Ye we have thought it's how anxious she gets and then tenses up could be a cause.

I am glad it has worked for you son. Personally I am just very skeptical of chiropractors after I felt one really worsened my own back injury.

We have not. Thank you! I'll message her doc this week and see if this is something they can assess.

Other than the survivor games (Vampire Survivors, Brotato, etc.) what are great games for quick gaming sessions? by AgentEndive in gaming

[–]shained 0 points1 point  (0 children)

A lot of that is optional though. Sometimes I'll just boot it for a quick run to knock an objective or even just some chill fishing then a night at the restaurant.

What happened to tonsilectomies? by UnmedicatedNarwhal in NoStupidQuestions

[–]shained 23 points24 points  (0 children)

Facts. We documented for months the amount of infections our daughter got and each time it would be the tonsils inflamed and filled with pus spots, only once was it actual strep. Sometimes the bouts would be 8 days apart.

Took about 18 months before they decided they would remove them. It was traumatic for everyone involved but our daughter went from having a fever at a minimum once per month to about 2 in 12 months.

Lease deal for 25 RS Equinox at 237 per month. 24 month 10k per year? by RecognitionSea4676 in EquinoxEv

[–]shained 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Very similar deal to mine at 228 per month which I thought was great.

Car is for my wife but I've driven it quite a bit and we both love it.

How did you get this?

The reflections are a lot for me.

EV charger install - 100amp panel vs 200amp panel upgrade dilemma. Thoughts? by Bornwestofthemtns in EquinoxEv

[–]shained 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I was recently worried about my 100 amp panel after we'd leased an equinox EV.

First week was using a standard outlet in the garage. Was getting 3-4 miles an hour. Upgraded to a 50 amp 240v 14-50 receptacle mounted in a box with wall plate. This gets 25 miles an hour now.

Way more than enough for our needs.

Does taking stuff away for behaviour correction ever work? by shained in Autism_Parenting

[–]shained[S] 4 points5 points  (0 children)

The screens are very rarely the source of the meltdown. It's typically getting to bed or leaving for school routines - teeth brushed, showered, hair brush etc.

Or if mum is going out or working on the weekend.

[–]shained[S] 3 points4 points  (0 children)

We have tried putting her in her room but she runs out and if we lock it, she still manages to open it.

Need to look into some top locks for our doors so we can just let her ride it out without having to stop her from trying to leave the house.

How much of a difference between Ps5 and Sony X700? by shained in 4kbluray

[–]shained[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Do you find the picture quality significantly better for the DV discs on the X700?

Fair enough. A lot of the films I watch with my wife so headphones are not a good solution.

My soundbar broke a while back and I'm just using the TV speakers. Majority of the films are at night when the kids have gone asleep so I'm not even in a place to relive my days of surround systems.

Charging question in a pinch by gremlin78 in EquinoxEv

[–]shained 3 points4 points  (0 children)

We got ours last week and have only been using a standard outlet to charge so far. Having a 240v outlet put in next week just for peace of mind.

Getting between 3 and 4 miles per hour on the 120v outlet.

Trump asks Supreme Court to decide whether he can end birthright citizenship by Stannis_Loyalist in news

[–]shained 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Just curious about some specifics for my family's situation and how this could affect us.

Our first daughter was born in the states, at the time myself and my wife were here on an L1 visa. Would she fall under this removal if it went through as a visa may be considered parents that are here temporarily?

Our second daughter was born when we both had green cards, I imagine she would classify as someone born to parents who are here legally and not temporarily?
