I flunked out of diabetes 101, but they offered me a job
SwampNut replied to SwampNut's topic in Diet & health exchange
It's unfortunate that some doctors do that. The studies showed that many can stay at 2.5. We have a forum member whose wife has been on that for around 3-4 years now I think. Some of the people I've helped have been doing super well at 4mg. -
That's hilarious on many levels. A few months ago I posted about a retard in an emotional support truck, and I think it was you who asked about video, because you assumed I was in the Rivian, but I was riding. The Rivian has pushbutton suspension drop. It's SLAMMED on the lowest setting, like a Puerto Rican would drive. You clearly like EVs more than motorcycles. Sad. So I did this yesterday. First, there was no way I was getting the last inch compressed. It was a motherfucker to pull down. But I can see a mark where I have hit the full stroke, must have been during the braking part of the advanced rider class a few months ago. And I had to cut the strap, as there was no way to unlock it afterward. Bottom line is there is no way to make the dashcam great, it will have a marginal limited view at best, after printing two more mounts with more mods.

I'd rather have a Rincorn Continental

Yeah, duh. I mean, I needed to hear it, thanks, but duh I should have seen it that way. -

Last night I helped yet another person start on Tirzepatide. I was asked what motivates me, why I spend hours and hours helping people with this. The answer is stories like yours. A friend's wife has been able to put off invasive knee surgery since starting on it. Things like that make me so happy. This weekend I'm presenting on how to use another peptide to stop perimenopause, and the woman I've worked with report life-changing results, starting right here at home. Are you still on the 2.5 starter dose? Stay on it as long as possible. My side effects escalated astronomically with higher doses. Dave is the only person I've heard of, ever, out of hundreds I've talked to, who didn't have that. -
I've been invited to do a presentation at a peptide conference

Headed there tomorrow. This is hilarious. I guess I have the reputation for trying things. ScreenRecording_04-23-2025 18-20-18_1.mov And this is the topic of my presentation. The agenda was just released and many of the women want answers today, not tomorrow. I get it. -
Right, MSM cheerleading and no facts. In fact, lots of bullshit. I had a dozen to pick from, I chose that one (all about the same info) to see if I'd get that predictable response.

Ah, just learned where this all came from this morning. Apparently MSM has been filled with this retard's nonsense about autism this week. Sigh. The entire thread is based on garbage. https://people.com/rfk-jr-says-autism-has-bigger-impact-than-covid-because-covid-killed-old-people-11718613

You mean the guy blaming it on vaccines, or the kid? My own crackpot theory is all that. What we've done to pollute the entire planet, the factory farming, the microplastics that are now clogging brains, prevalent radiation, PCBs. All of it. And now that we're eliminating the controls on pollution and factory farming, bring it on!
-
Yeah, if. We don't know.

New glasses have at least improved things a lot. It seems likely that I'll just pay for the extras and run my chances on the basics with insurance. But also shopping around. -
Reminds me, what was the original point here?
-
1. Yes. 2. Yes. 3. The patients and the parents. Oh and teachers.

They just don't. Nearly none will. And by nearly, apparently they mean none do. Also, does it change my decision? Should it? -
His case is well known and documented. He's become a case study for a lot of journals. Also my answer was really to the claim that just treating symptoms is bad.

Insurance won't pre-authorize this. You get it done and hope for the best. How fucking retarded. I'm quoted $2538 per eye for basic. Plus about $3500 for an enhanced lens that will eliminate the astigmatism, and give mid-to-far clear vision. Not close. I'm not a strong candidate to remove glasses completely, outside of having two surgeries. One to get close, another to fix it based on the findings from that. Yah nah. I wonder if I should shop around. This place is clearly high end. What's the value? My optometrist, who I trust, says this is his top pick. Is the next best...10% less good? Also is there some specialist out there for my specific issue? Dunno. What to do. -
Even worse are the people NOT treated for the symptoms. My neighbor's kid exists in society only because he's significantly medicated for the symptoms which include some violence. 20 years ago they'd just lock him up as a criminal and keep him in solitary, which would be fucked up. All of the drugs he's on are generics, no big pharma conspiracy though. Sorry guys, nothing to see here, move along now. Our local police are trained on this, and more importantly, have shifted funding from cops to people who are useful for this. When called, a psych worker is first in, with guns as backup. Not run in with guns and start shooting. This is glaringly different from a few miles down the road where the other PD literally did that.

It reminds me, I need to nudge her towards switching from semaglutide to tirzepatide, she's being ripped off by a shitty med-spa now. But like cows, some people only move from constant pressure and reminders. Oops was that out loud? Yeah, ten minutes to either clear it, or see how to work around it. Dashcam on the Zero. It has...zero mounting spots that look good. I've spent too many hours making parts and still sketchy. I know there's math on the suspension movement, but sometimes just seeing it is better.
-
I am not qualified to have an opinion on this, just like everyone else here. I do have the opinion, based on data, that we can't really know.

I love a conspiracy theory, but...name one med for autism.
