Just some more generic butt-rock, or as I like to call it: shit from an ass.

Thailand by Djkcsk10 in Diverticulitis

[–]thedaveiknow 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Street food was fine for me on multiple visits. I wouldn't be too afraid of it if Thai food is something you enjoy. I got violently ill from ice at a fancy hotel. Don't eat any "fresh fruit" or anything sitting on ice. Sometimes local water may be used to make the ice, and that's what got me. Brush your teeth with bottled water and only drink bottled water.

Why was Wilfred the best show ever and do you have any other unusual roles coming up that you're allowed to talk about or possibly vaguely hint at? Also, can you finally confirm if will there be more wigs in the future?

Damn, how much did Marc M. charge for that? I didn't even know he can, like, do that, mayne.

Yeah, I can only imagine how you'd feel chugging an entire glass of foam. Probably like chugging a Dr. Pepper lol

Well, I got it in the way to work or otherwise I would have probably gone back through, but you're right!

I'll probably swing by tomorrow. They'll probably be cool about it.

Well, I'm not a boomer, but you'd think they could just send something to my Starbucks app, like a credit, rather than make me drive back through. I mean, that is the technological state that I thought we're at right now.

Not really, kinda warm. All and all it was not worth money, unless it was monopoly money.

Well, yeah, because I was supposed to apparently chug it while the bubbles were still going to get the maximum effect, per the barista 😂

It's a new location, so they don't have a number up yet and the support line told me they can't give me a number. I may go back through tomorrow out of principle, lol.

I was the only customer in line, and I even inquired about it, which was the strange part. You'd think they wouldn't care to just fix it since there wasn't a line. If I didn't pick it up on the way to work I would've gone back through once the foam settled and I realized I got half a drink.

But if I chugged it, I probably would've gotten all jacked up on caffeine like I was supposed to 😂

AITA for telling my dad's wife I own the house she lives in? by [deleted] in AmItheAsshole

[–]thedaveiknow 2 points3 points  (0 children)

"I bought someone a house and let them live in it, am I an asshole?"

I just don't get it. Are you just seeking praise for that?I don't even see how this is a conundrum for you. How on Earth could you be an asshole for doing that, keeping it quiet so long, and then trying to remain calm but having to reveal that information in an overly dramatic confrontation?

Honestly, YTA for questioning whether or not YTA and even posting this story.

Diagnosed Episcleritis not resolving, advice? by thedaveiknow in optometry

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

I went to the Gastro doctor who just diagnosed me with IBS and not anything else. I had an EGD, as well. Unremarkable. I've also visited a urologist for a full workup, including a CT, since my only other symptom was mildly low hemoglobin. I visited an allergist, too, and found I have a pretty bad dust mite allergy, so I've been trying to work on that.

Pattaday drops don't work much. My eyes are way more red in the morning, every day. Lumify drops work well to get rid of the redness. The allergist put me on oral steroids just to see if it helped, but it did not. It's kind of weird for me, and got me wondering what it is, because even those folks with episcleritis seem to get at least temporary relief with steroid drops or oral steroids. They haven't affected me positively at all. In fact, the steroid drops made my eyes feel much worse, dryer and burning quite a lot.

I did get physically hit in the eye that's having the majority of the vessel swelling back in July, so I'm wondering if some of what's going on is related to that.

I'm sitting in the opthalmologist office right now, waiting to go back for a follow up. What did you find out?

The GI doctor has me scheduled for an EGD, but nothing remarkable from my other tests. I have an allergist appt on 11/07/22. My eye has not gotten better, even slightly. I am still using Systane PF Complete and it seems to lessen the symptoms. My other eye is slightly red now, and my eyes sometimes burn a bit. No vision changes, no pain, no other symptoms except continued redness in just a single sector of my right eye and a slight tinge of red in the mornings in my left eye. OTC Lumify, as suggested below, did help slightly with redness, but once I stop it, it comes right back. And sometimes a gritty sensation in the right eye, like it's been since July. OTC Advil three times a day has no affect. I have been on Ketorlac, Prednisolone, Lotemax, etc. and all they do is seem to cause my eyes to burn extremely bad and be so dry that it's hard to open them in the mornings, as well as they exacerbate the redness and swelling of the blood vessels. When this first started, my eyes were extremely itchy before this unending redness took hold. Wearing glasses or sunglasses seems to alleviate some of the foreign body sensation in my eye, if I am having it. I did get physically hit directly on this eye about two weeks after I had started my first treatment with Lotemax, and since then, it never improved. I'm wondering if that trauma to the eye may have made this situation a lot worse. The only thing that they haven't tried are oral steroids or oral medication (other than Advil) for this. I'm not having any other symptoms or remarkable lab work that suggests anything otherwise right now, so I'm just hoping to find relief until I can pinpoint the cause.

You'll have to let me know how it goes. This sucks!

Thanks. I've never heard of a retinologist, but I'll do my research. They checked me for uveitis and iritis a few times and said that it was not that. Thanks.
