That's awesome. So happy for her and all the others like her who now have hope. Anyone who understands the treatment, do you know if the reverse is possible too? I have hyperacusis and could benefit from deafening, esp if it's eas

Having (Jewish) Israeli, pre-Israeli, and pre-pre-Israli heritage, I don't personally find "From the River to the Sea" offensive but I do find it non-constructive and insensitive. Globalize the intifada otoh is awful. I follo

My aunt lives in Tel Aviv from 1933 to 1952. She told me they actually started shelling the city that night, not the next day. As well, there was fighting in the streets. They had to turn off the lights at night and hide in the basement to

Can confirm. A crypto bro / lawyer invited me to learn to shoot. I hate guns but figured it was a way to spend time with him. The result is I now have noxacusis, a repetitive stress injury of the ear. At times I've been unable to

I have a rare disorder called hyperacusis from a noise trauma, which causes pain from everyday sounds. While I'm thankfully not sensitive to these kinds of sounds, most are and it's quite dangerous to us. This disease is repetitiv

I have a medical condition that makes me sensitive to everyday noises. It started when a friend invited me to learn to shoot but was complacent about my hearing safety. Lots of conditions have pain from sound but this is no ordinary conditi

I have chronic tendonitis in my elbows and hands. They say it's non-rheumatologic but don't know what it is. How frustrating medicine can be. There is no specialty in medicine for treating undiagnosed diseases. You just bounce aro

That'd be true if it weren't for cheap leverage that you get with real estate. 3%/yr with 5x leverage is 15%/yr

I think PrEP is great and I don't think we do a great job of getting it to people for whom it makes sense. That being said, the CDC has an excellent position on who should be getting it and that's not a lot of people. PrEP is well

I agree with other comments. He was careful with his wording to reflect how he feels, without blaming others.

I feel bad for OP here. It sucks and you deserve the same love and affection that everyone else does. Your needs and desires don't change just because you have this disease. I would like to point out that while PrEP might not do it, a

Because one is not better than the other. They perform complementary functions. Hence, I would suggest either finding time for both (I don't) or alternating. That is, one day you sleep more and don't exercise and the next day you

Well, there's that crazy guy who's trying to make it available to the public for at home experimentation. He already tested it on himself, trying to get himself bigger muscles as I recall. One of the comments I saw from a microbio

Those kinds of business plans were typical of that era and venture capitalists were accustomed to investing in lofty dreams. Naturally, it didn't pan out most of the time and they've gotten smarter. Theranos managed to outlive mos

Mine were removed when I was 2 because they were huge! Like all surgery, it comes with risks and tradeoffs. It's great that we have a better idea of what the risks are now but that's not a reason not to do the surgery. Let's

There's also skeletal changes with age: the facial skeleton shrinks starting in our 40s-50s. Got a reference for severity claim? That measured in terms of AHI or significance of the events?

We don't build housing, builders do. We simply decide what is permitted to happen. We could eliminate restrictions on construction and that would help but the rate of housing growth would still be limited by money available to pay for

My company has an anonymous internal forum and I don't even like asking simple HR questions on there! I once complained about my disuse of my dependent care FSA going unnoticed. That's as far as I'm willing to go. A touchy su

While we're at it, we should also add sleep apnea to the list of disorders to screen for. Sleep apnea causes anxiety. Estimates of prevalence range from about 1-2% at the low end to 30% for certain demographics. And increasing with tim

I think people also forget that it's not as simple as taking a pill and all is good. All medications carry side effects and risks. Even Tylenol can cause major problems like hearing loss down the line. As I recall, the life expectancy

Actually, it turns out that they also fabricated data on their test (Herpes I think) and they ended up having to send out letters to tens of thousands of customers who got false positives. They must be pissed... think of all the damage thos
