re: Glacier National Park - Staying Within Park Req's
Posted by PTBob on 8/31/25 at 5:22 pm to TheJunction
just booked a couple nights at many glacier for july next year. we planned a little late and it was all booked up but we stalked the website multiple times per day and some availability opened up. if your dates are a little flexible, the website will show you availability for all the glacier park hotels/stays for the entire month on one page and you can plan from there.

re: 2025 Fall Garden Thread
Posted by PTBob on 8/16/25 at 11:46 am to PillageUrVillage
Let the garden get out of control. Wood for the raised beds rotted and so going to start over for next spring. 2 blueberry bushes in the back. 
I mowed to knock all the BS and try to prevent it from getting out of control. Did some blueberry bush trimming
My question is, how would yall fix this up to get it back in action. There were 2 raised garden beds one at the front of the picture, one at the back. The blueberry bushes were in the back of the back raised bed.
I'm not worried about the fall just want it to be ready for the spring. Would just murdering everything other than the bushes with round up and then building raised beds again in the winter and bringing in some good dirt/soil for the beds be okay or is there a better way?

sometime last year my phone kept going in and out of SOS including in areas where I should have service.
took it to AT&T and they gave me a new sim card and haven't had the issue since

doing it stoned better than doing it sober probably

That’s extremely shortsighted . In the scheme of brain surgery, putting in a VP shunt is usually not a big deal. And the prognosis is pretty positive if it’s treated.
agreed, it's highly treatable and is sometimes one of those surgeries that seems like a miracle.
i've had multiple patients who were confused, had poor balance, festinating gait and then had the shunt procedure and were completely back to normal.
local neurologist estimates that 25% of people in memory care units don't actually have dementia, they just have NPH. their symptoms can be very similar.

replacing an addiction with a different addiction is a pretty good strategy
now, you'd rather it be a healthier addiction (exercising, golfing, reading etc.) but it's absolutely a good strategy

Lot of good YouTube channels of people doing it in various types of boats. I watch Zoffinger on 2nd monitor a lot and he tried but gave up. Made it from
Tampa to North Carolina I think. His boat had a ton of problems.

Had a border collie. We would play fetch with a big arse stick in a field close to a tree line. Like others have said, he'd go until he or I died. I'd have to make him stop.
I'd occasionally make a bad toss and the stick would go off in the woods pretty far. I'd be damned if he wouldn't go in the woods, search, and bring back the exact same stick in a place where there were a billion.
Miss him.

Do you have any personal feelings about stem cell therapy
I don’t, sorry. Other than the fact that many pro athletes use it to recover from surgery and injuries. I actually plan to ask Dr. Emblom about that at my follow up.

I will absolutely return back to 100% and so will she, barring any complications of surgery. I'm 37. Her age is a major benefit.
Follow the precautions, do the rehab completely including the return to sport stuff.
3 months I'll be back to playing league tennis and that is not an aggressive timeline.

The surgery is a scam.Do the MRI on any average joe and it will show a torn labrum. I used this program and it worked: Upright Health
Many people can manage it conservatively. Many can’t. The surgery is not a scam. It absolutely can fail if you don’t follow the post op restrictions.
He’s also making money off of you not doing the surgery.

Had my right hip labrum repaired and underwent femorplasty due to cam lesion a week ago yesterday.
Dr. Emblom at Andrews Sports Medicine in Birmingham. Crutches for 2 days, cane for a couple days, now assistive device free.
I’ll remove the sutures Wednesday. Haven’t needed pain meds since the second night.
I am a PT and am doing my own rehab and knew potentially what to expect but so far has been much easier that I was preparing for.
You will have some ROM restrictions initially to protect the newly repaired labrum.
I’ll be going back to work this coming Thursday.

Look up a Peter Attia podcast about blood pressure. He lays it all out and doesn't opine on things he doesn't know shite about a la Huberman. He does delve deep into the weeds sometimes but I find his podcasts extremely useful.
He recently did one with "Dr. Lipid" about cholesterol. One this week is on insulin resistance. Both of which play a role in metabolic disease and HTN.

Odd, wonder why the overlap between infectious disease and LGBTQ health

when looking through the available doctors in that specialty there were quite a few docs that specialized in trans stuff.

Newer research shows that hyper responders benefitted from 28/g a day. I think 10% of population are hyper responders.
I’ll see if I can find the paper.

re: Who here uses a CPAP machine?
Posted by PTBob on 12/27/24 at 10:08 pm to boxcarbarney
got one in october. have tried and tried to get used to it just can't. it's not the pressure, it's just something about the mask. i've used 3 different variations of nasal pillow.
in the 3ish months i've had it, i've made it 4 hours twice. i have to wear it 4 hours per night, 70% of the time to be in "compliance" with insurance.
oh, i was 5'9, 195 when i got it. was exhausted some days and if i could squeeze in a 10 minute nap i would absolutely take advantage. my sleep study said i had 5.1 events per hour. 5 events per hour is the minimum number to qualify for a cpap under the "mild sleep apnea" diagnosis.
i've since lost 20lbs. 172 yesterday. still skinny fat, though. i'm not tired at all during the day now so i think losing some weight helped my issues.

he's a good coach and a great recruiter. brought a bunch of guys from their championship team including the QB.
he's got a reputation for being difficult to work with from an administration standpoint. marshall fans are big mad on twitter. obviously i have no clue if what they are saying is true or if its sour grapes but hopefully we don't run into that problem.
if he's successful at usm, i'd be surprised if he didn't get p5 offers.
