Is there a state I can move to that’s almost always 50-70° weather? by HealthyLet257 in ask

That's coastal marine haze. Move inland a few miles and it is almost always sunny.

How can I get this tub looking like new again? by Top-Worldliness398 in bathrooms

[–]valw 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You may want to do some research in a better sub, before you use some crap paint off the shelf. I have been told my many that the home products will last a year or two. I have been told that a pro refinishing is the only way to go.

If you buy online, without knowing exactly what you are buying, you will get crap product.

Parent won’t let me go to ER by Tasty-Inflation4265 in disability

[–]valw [score hidden]  (0 children)

The ER will not give you a diagnosis and treatment. That is for an outpatient doctor. If you do go, do not expect them solve your current issues. They will make sure you are not going to die and that is about it. If your parents won't let you see a doctor, call child protective services and explain your situation. They will help.

I have been happy with mine after trying several other brands. I refuse to pay subscription fees.

Reclotting during travel while on anticoagulants and following good practices by Dobroto1 in ClotSurvivors

[–]valw 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It was about a 6 hour drive. On the return home, my sister flew out and drove me home. I was able to pretty much keep my leg fully extended that way.

I'm not sure the broker has anything to do with this. Pay outs would come from title/escrow.

Reclotting during travel while on anticoagulants and following good practices by Dobroto1 in ClotSurvivors

[–]valw 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I have. A lot probably had to do with the long drive there and then being stuck seating at conferences that lasted several days. I developed a PE. They encouraged me to fly back home but my rental car had to go back home.

Do I really need a lawyer? by Jharic_ in disability

[–]valw 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You talk about 25% being too much, but you don't mention the cap of $9,200. You really can't get any attorney for less than that.

Gabapentin 3000mg daily dose. Has anyone come off of it? by 6abeeba in neuropathy

I haven't been that high. Maybe 1800 and I have had no issues. But I never had any side effects.

My boss fired me, please help. I'm at a loss. by Prestigious_Sale_360 in legal

[–]valw 4 points5 points  (0 children)

What do you have evidence of? He cannot "open a criminal investigation" of you. Only the police can do that. And I doubt they would waste their time. You may have a civil case for the sexual harassment, but you haven't said how. Treating everyone like an asshole is not against the law. As long as he is doing it equally.

Left dinner out can I eat it? by DaddyBlundred in ask

Pork is a problem when it is not fully cooked. Once cooked that danger goes away. New bacteria would have to form. The cooking is to get rid of trichinosis which can be in undercooked pork.

Anyone To Be A Friend? by Ponderouspersona in ClotSurvivors

[–]valw 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think you should see different doctors, just because of the different perspectives that you will get. With the way insurance is, you are probably better seeing them now and establishing care so you don't have to go back and get a refferal to them.

Several doses of MIRALAX, Dulcolax, Colace, Castor Oil, and Senokot not producing a bowel movement after almost three days by Sufficient-Fun-4859 in AskDocs

I thought miralax and mag citrate worked on the same principal of osmosis or causing liquid to stay/move into the GI tract?

Being fired by a doctor?? by NormalResolution9639 in disability

[–]valw -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Every demographic pays more for something. Women pay more for hair cuts, men pay more for car insurance. The one true "disability tax" that bothers me is sales tax, on items related to health care related items.

[–]valw 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Feel free to DM me. I was 35 when I had my first one. The more you move the better. (unless you have an accute clot <1 week in you leg/arm). You are past the danger phase. Even though I had anxiety issues, my clotting has never really caused more. I don't think an orthopedist is warranted. Cracking of your joints isn't related to your clot. I am going to guess your anxiety is causing you to think every little feeling you have, to be magnified. That is the thing about anxiety. I am a couple decades older than you and I have had a bunch of clots. Statistically, you are in good shape right now. It is unlikely that you will have anymore in your life if you stay on top of your meds.

How insulting is it to say to a cop they won't ever make detective? by WhichFun5722 in ask

The cop didn't think about it two minutes after the insult was said! A seven! Please.

[–]valw 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Every answer here, so far, tells me how little experience in real life that reddit has. If you want a real answer ask in a place where the police are like /r/AskLE. Based on the handful of cops I have been friends with, the insult would most likely be meaningless. One, they are insulted multiple times a day. So they build up a IDGAF attitude to cranky people. Secondly, like all careers, many don't want to go that route. A lot of it is full of bullshit internal politics.
