Either way, it would have been tiny and malformed.

Sounds like you’re not in the U.S.

If he thinks five grand is a big hospital bill, he’s not living in the real world.

“freshly dig” ?

Doctor. Could be tinnitus.

Oh. It’s Texas.

It is fucking horrible. If you don’t get that, you’re living in a different century.

Analyze your limitations. We all think we’re Superman sometimes. We’re not.

Taking care of yourself will pay off, literally if you are in the U.S. and subject to our horrible healthcare.

It’s easy to lapse into a sedentary lifestyle – don’t do it. The couch is not your friend.

I got food poisoning there the day after Christmas.

Note to self: never go to a fast food restaurant the day after it was closed for a holiday.

Asshole.

California. 62. Been driving a manual for over 40 years. Most recently a six-speed.

Being treated like shit.

What did this dumb shit expect?

Asshole.

Hang in!

Ive had diabetic ketoacidosis a few times. Once it starts coming on you can’t eat Anything. For a couple days or more.

Then the treatment is ice chips and IV insulin for a few days.

Coming out of it, your stomach is the size of a walnut and the thought of eating makes you want to make you puke.

My roads back to eating:

Broth from ramen cups. Liquid meal replacements. If you have a soy allergy, take a close look at the ingredients. Miso broth.

Drinkable yogurt.

Bland pasta with just olive oil.

Granola bars.

My experience is that I eventually get hungry again.

Best of luck dealing with your situation.

Edit: per others, chicken soup (I can get the broth down) and Pedialyte or Gatorlyte. Getting dehydrated does not help.

That’s what I heard too. But it turned out to be great. I haven’t had it since, sadly.

Bear stew.

My landlord shot it and cooked it.

I thought it would be awful … But it was delicious!

Mostly sticking with ham these days.

Similar situation here. There’s two of us and my SOs veg kids. It doesn’t make sense to make a lot of anything.

Turkey is bland anyway, and I don’t want to be eating one for two weeks.

Frankly, I’d rather live under a freeway overpass. Or just die.
