  1. Thanks. I was, quite literally, about to ask this very question. Since starting the roids 2 weeks ago, my symptoms have improved a lot. I was wondering if that would affect any markers I might have in my blood.
  2. Thanks to @Sbbruin for recommending this thread. My doc suspects I have RA. Put me on a steroid last week until the blood test comes back. Thing is, I haven't gotten the blood test completed yet because I've been busy. Here's everything I've been dealing with. Any thoughts? Rash on my left shin that has basically been there for 3 years. It, occasionally, starts to go away, but flares back up. Lots of fatigue and sore joints. I've always been super athletic. Over the past couple of years, I actually have to use handrails to get up and down the damn stairs. Lower left side of my back (SI joint) has been hurting for a couple of years now. Most of the pain is in my feet, ankles, knees. I say this in the strongest of anti-pussy ways ... I've always been able to deal with pain. I ran a marathon on a dare, I played soccer on two broken ribs, long story short, I once had to jog 4 miles on a newly torn ACL. What I'm dealing with lately is very debilitating and above and beyond just getting old, IMO. One of my eyes gets bloodshot every couple of months. Eyes are dry a lot. I do not have nail issues, pitted or otherwise. (This seemed to lead the teledoc away from further PA or RA testing when I first mentioned my symptoms a couple of years ago.)

    Getting old sucks

    Got home from school. Tired. Go to take a nap. GD cat starts pawing at the door. I rise up to throw a pillow at the cat, and pull my right quad. Awesome.
  4. Good Christ. We're still goong to see these two on the field this year?
  5. Saw Stroh, Ashton Porter, and another recruit on Bevo Blvd. /csb
  6. Is it the two teams I mentioned, or something else? If it's the former, you haven't been subjected to "We're the real UT" half a million times like me. If it's the latter, what am I missing besides incorrectly giving aggy credit for NIL prowess over blatant cheating?
  7. Awesome. The two schools I least want to be successful - Vols and aggy - are all over this NIL stuff.
  8. Cool. It looked intriguing. Based on the responses, I'm in.
  9. Since moving back to Texas (5 years ago) and being able to attend spring and regular season games, I've had no issues finding parking on the south side of MLK. A couple of times, we've parked in a lot; couple of times in a garage. $20 or $25 IIRC.

    USMNT 2022

    I've been on the fence per the goalie debate but, those of y'all with concerns about Steffen have been proven correct.
  11. The obsession with crushing one's penis was a tad much, but the rest was ok. Can't believe that girl let a scorpion sting her 4 times in the face.

    Diagnosed with rheumatoid arthritis this week. That sounds fun.
  13. I didn't buy my first gun until about 5 years ago. My emotions were power and responsibility. Worked at Little Caesar's while in high school. This was during the "Pizza, Pizza" days. I never went home without at least 4 pizzas and 3 bags of crazy bread. Luckily, I weighed 120 lbs at the time AND played basketball about 4 hours a day, or I would have been a blimp.

    This streaming? A search on watchnow.com didn't come up with anything.
  15. We're doubly lucky. Our friends are in the Disney Vacation Club (I think that's it). They've gone every summer for years. We get to join them every other summer. Free condo for a week at the Animal Kingdom Lodge. Anyway, between them and my wife's obsession with All Ears or Big Ears or whatever it's called, I just have to follow.
  16. Hey man! I resemble that. Well, actually I live one suburb over, but I teach in Garland.
