Why do retired people get the early appointments? DH seems to get all the early appointments too and then you are caught in early morning rush hour traffic

I tell them when I want to go.

I on Saturday it was$1 a gal cheaper at the gas station. But after I poured a 5 gal jug into the tank from the gas station I decided it's better paying the extra and have a man fill up the tank.

Probably by now the price at the gas station probably went up

i think they are price gouging us. No way it went up that fast.

Always go to the best if practical. I am having problems with my eyes. I had an excellent visit with another great Dr. today, an ophthalmologist I believe from the Middle East My gyno and allergy dr today were both Asian. I do live in Calif but it makes me wonder, why do we not have any Caucasian drs any more. I certainly don’t mind. I get excellent care , just an observation
I am doctored out.

Hershey has very few caucasion Drs and at Lancaster they have allot more caucasion. Hershey is the big teaching hospital

That's because they broaden the definition, it doesn't mean what we think of as autistic anymore, now it means "abnormal thinker" and includes things like ADHD and OTC and Aspergers even in their mild forms. Its kind of ridiculous. I understand how the same coping and learning techniques work so they want to spread it to all who need it and not just the ones who are in noticably bad shape. but in the end it just becomes an excuse and ego blow to the ones who before wouldnt have qualified, while watering down the severity of those few who actually struggle. They should have different terms/ words for how severe it is honestly. Like calling all cases of bleeding a "Gash" sometimes thats an understatement, but most of the time thats an extreme word for a smaller problem.

I agree. I am starting to understand I have adhd but it just means I need to learn how to control how I do things better. Not use it as an excuse for never finishing anything

I think other ethnic groups just try harder or have families that put learning at a higher level. I have quite a few Muslim drs and they are good. Probably some of the best drs I have ever had. Of course at my age I have never had this many drs.

Many, many, many, many years ago, man stored milk in natural skin bags and the natural bacteria caused it to ferment, turning into yogurt. A form of preservation. Does that help your appetite?

All DH cancer Drs are Chinese. They are hard to understand but When I googled them, they did lots of research and wrote many research papers. That is a sign they are very interested in there work and it's usually a sign of a knowledgeable Dr.

Yeah it makes sense.

But how many people had autism, ADHD etc years ago and lived without a diagnosis.

Like Crohn's disease people used to have a stomach ache until a diagnosis came along. Nobody knows when it actually started. Just when it became diagnosed

True. It wasn’t talked about and/or sometimes WAY WAY back they were just sent to a special home or a state hospital or whatever for being “different” so people didn’t know. It’s more easily talked about now and more diagnosed

I tried sleeping but I couldn’t really sleep or barely plus I woke up and it’s only around quarter to 11. I was really really hoping it would be a lot later by now LOL but anyways, the idea dawned on me to try a hot shower for the pain (body aches) etc. so I am about to do that now LOL
