Some of the ranches are big enough they do have helicopters. It’s not impossible.

I was thinking of this dude: https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Angus_Barbieri's_fast

What a cracker of a question!

Short answer, yes.

Long answer, what sorts of side effects happen as a result of said medication? I don’t think there’s a single medication or even supplement out there that doesn’t have some sort of side effect (e.g., ibuprofen can cause gut bleeding, iron supplements can lead to constipation, grapefruit can screw with all sorts of medications), so balancing the cost benefit ratio is important.

The problem comes is the suggestion of travelling to destination X (in your case, the Bahamas) doesn’t just pop up out of thin air - friends may have travelled there recently, perhaps there has been a recent advertising push, etc.

Another family member looking up some destinations to travel, then speaking with you later - same external IP of the home wifi being reported, bam you get advertised the destinations they looked at the most.

Choosing a “random” topic again also doesn’t come out of thin air.

Last I heard 2035 was already going to be pretty crap, 2050 was unlivable.

As other comments have said, deal with the origin of the pain first, THEN…

If it’s bad enough to take meds but not too bad, then one 500mg paracetamol and 200mg ibuprofen (my go to for pain). The paracetamol will generally be one with some caffeine in it.

If it’s a BAD headache, then 900mg aspirin.

I do have a headache hat which is kept in the fridge.

That is literally how you are supposed to play Dixit.

A lot of companies have tried to dodge their liability responsibilities by claiming it was an unrelated third party that is responsible.

The consumer still has a contractual relationship with the vendor, not the upstream provider.

The vendor is the one who should ensure their supply chain is safe, and can’t demand a stupidly low price that gives no room for safe practices.

Bit harder to breed emus than pigs.

Don’t get into stranger’s cars, and don’t give out your real name or number or address on the internet.

Now you do most of these things when you call an uber. 😅

Not just that but I’ve seen posts mocking the captain for being a lesbian, and wokeness for why the boat crashed.

For anyone worried about this, you can ask for a bite block.

Antibiotics and other prescription medications are more often prescribed to older folks, so the increase should be seen in those populations, not primarily more in younger populations. It is unlikely that antibiotics or other similar medical interventions are responsible for the phenomenon seen in the op article.

Also, as a prescriber, I do warn my patients of the dangers of taking antibiotics willy nilly. 🤷🏻‍♀️

Get a proper sleep study, see an ENT and sleep physician, if you are overweight lose some, sleep on your side.

Snoring is produced by soft tissues vibrating when they flop where they shouldn’t (i.e., blocking airway).

It is thus indicative of reduced airflow, which can result in negative health outcomes - including yes, brain damage. The full condition is called obstructive sleep apnoea (OSA), but there are other conditions like upper airway resistive syndrome.

From the pictures I see online, it looks like an over the counter mandibular advancement splint (MAS). MAS are used for management of OSA, but only per the prescription of a sleep physician, who needs the results from a sleep study as well as an examination of the patient.

Not all OSA sufferers will tolerate let alone benefit from a MAS. There are drawbacks and side effects with a MAS that may not be discussed with all patients, let alone purchasers of an OTC product.

I have a custom fitted one, and even as someone in the industry, I find there are certainly limitations to it.

When I was playing Mario kart I kept trying to look up and I ended up with my head tilted all the way up. Not sure if I’m just not used to it. 😅

Eyes felt fine, but I probably played for an hour at most tonight.

They work well with my Samsung phone (DeX is detected), the cable is a bit annoying but I can understand why it has to be the way it is.

Quality is pretty decent. 3d mode does work too, but I think I prefer my quest2 for that.

Putting aside whether it’s normal for you to be experiencing aging so early*, you should still see another PCP because they didn’t manage your actual concern: “I am experiencing issues functioning day to day life, and would like a plan to manage this”.

It would have been one thing if the doctor had said “yup, just you, so let’s get you into an assisted living arrangement now”, or “I’m fairly certain this is just your shitty genes, but to rule out anything else, let’s send you for X tests and see the Y specialist”.

From your post, it doesn’t sound like that was the case.

*The joke goes that after thirty you don’t get injured, you get permanent disabilities.

And that’s only if your area has actual regulations on what free range even means.

For reference, here in Australia:

Under the law, eggs labelled as ‘free range’ must come from hens that are able to roam and forage outdoors for at least eight hours each day. The maximum outdoor stocking density for free range egg farming is 10,000 hens per hectare of land or one hen per square metre.

That is awful! I buy a brand that has 40 per hectare, they have portable sheds that gets rotated across the property, and the hens get guard dogs to protect them as they roam.

There are many things adults should and should not do in the early years of a child’s life to set them up for success in the future… including not inoculating their mouths with decay causing bacteria (common pathway is testing food temp on a spoon, then using the same spoon in the baby’s mouth).
