Going to doctor's tommorrow, feet have been swollen for over a year, and now they hurt to walk. Not sure why they swelled and nothing is making it go. -- nm - Stacy Sep 23, 12:30 12
- you have mafiaitis. nm -- nm - dr groiny Sep 23, 12:35
- ask if you have gout. swolen sore feet is a major sign. Gout is a build up of Uric Acid in your system. - peglegpete Sep 23, 12:35 6
  - My doc gave me a prescription for Allopurinal for slightly elevated Uric Acid levels. - Subversive Sep 23, 12:39 5
    - You don't really "cure" yourself of gout, though. You're either susceptible or you're not. - Reagen Sep 23, 12:42 4
      - Yeah, I've never had gout pain, trying to prevent it. - Subversive Sep 23, 12:54
      - I just had sausage before reading all this...I really hope it's not gout. -- nm - Stacy Sep 23, 12:51
      - and you take the allopurinal for life to counteract the Uric Acid build up -- nm - peglegpete Sep 23, 12:48 1
        
        In my case, some diet changes I've made might do it, but the allopurinal is a temporary measure for now. - Subversive Sep 23, 12:56
- get well quick -- nm - crash davis Sep 23, 12:34
- Ouchie! -- nm - Redmond Sep 23, 12:32
- I hope they find out what is wrong and that it's an easy process. All the best Stacy! -- nm - lileve Sep 23, 12:31 1
  - Thanks :) -- nm - Stacy Sep 23, 12:34
Speaking of health insurance, they redid the benefits plan at work here this week - Reagen Sep 23, 12:23 20
- For some reason, I was under the impression that you guys were under single payer -- nm - con_carne Sep 23, 12:38 2
  - certain things aren't covered (dental, prescriptions, eye doctor) by our government insurance, so, you can opt to have - Andie Sep 23, 12:40
  - see below. We are, but not for everything. -- nm - Reagen Sep 23, 12:39
- that's better than what happened with mine at the end of last year. - znufrii Sep 23, 12:36
- That's awesome. Sometimes that can happen with older grandfathered plans. -- nm - TFox Sep 23, 12:27 2
  - Mop's sarcasm aside, I would note that we're mostly talking about drug plans, dental, optical and a few other things. - Reagen Sep 23, 12:30 1
    - Yeah, I get that, but even still... it happens with good ol American plans sometimes too. - TFox Sep 23, 12:32
- For those who have forgotten, Reagen's Canadian, so health insurance generally means... - Mop Sep 23, 12:26 8
  - I can't forget what he is. My monitor came with Smell-o-vision so all his posts come with a wiff of maple -- nm - crash davis Sep 23, 12:29 3

  - dental and optical is not covered ... -- nm - Beryllium Sep 23, 12:29 3
    - Yeah, the biggest benefit of extended health care is generally the dental and prescriptions. - Subversive Sep 23, 12:34
    - The good health care plans in Canada mean you get to die waiting in a hospital room rather than in the ER. -- nm - Mop Sep 23, 12:31 1
      - or a hallway, depending on the province -- nm - Beryllium Sep 23, 12:31
- good news! just in time for the baby -- nm - crash davis Sep 23, 12:26
- I want a major medical option - Epiphany Sep 23, 12:25 2
  - If we could, we would. The insurance companies suck the money out of employers because they have to cover everyone and thus pass on the risk. - Mop Sep 23, 12:28 1
    - That is how insurance works, after all. -- nm - TFox Sep 23, 12:29

    - well, he's not some British railroad tycoon -- nm - oblique Sep 23, 12:43 1
      - what i said -- nm - Danedukenuuk Sep 23, 12:45
  - He was like this on Growing Pains. That's why Mike got all responsible. -- nm - Inigo Sep 23, 12:31 5
    - He used to give bibles to the studio audience before shows. Not a joke even though it seems like one. -- nm - Redmond Sep 23, 12:34 4
      - I have no issue with that. This is kinda loopy though. (And the Romaninan girl owns him) -- nm - ty97 Sep 23, 12:41 1
        
        It's a free country. However, I don't really go to a taping of a television show with the intention of having my soul saved for all eternity. - Redmond Sep 23, 12:43

    - TB, in relation to the habits in first-person shooters online.... -- nm - Reagen Sep 23, 12:31
- I'm not sure I'd want to play in a battle that big as I feel 50% of the gamers I've encountered online have a chromosone missing. -- nm - crash davis Sep 23, 12:21 4
  - Hopefully you could only hear the members of your own team... -- nm - TFox Sep 23, 12:27
  - Killzone 2 is nice that way. First off, most people don't even have headsets, and there seem to be fewer pre-teens playing it. -- nm - Shaun Sep 23, 12:23

- [deleted]
- Thank god for Mackenzie Phillips. -- nm - Kanye Sep 23, 12:09 1
  - I'm happy for Mackenzie, and i'll let her finish, but yo, only Kanye was the only one to spark an internet meme. (nm) - musubi Sep 23, 12:11

  - [deleted] 14
    - Oh, well in that case. But who knows. I hope it's not true. -- nm - lileve Sep 23, 12:30
    - not that this is the kind of thing the rest of the family is necessarily privy to the truth on. -- nm - TFox Sep 23, 12:13 12
      - I mean, maybe he didn't let her buy a pony with her money and she is following through with making him regret it. -- nm - Spawn Sep 23, 12:15 6
        
        maybe she has a crooked doctor implanting memories. -- nm - Beaker Sep 23, 12:16 5

        I'll give her a mulligan for the first time, then. - ty97 Sep 23, 12:11 1
        
        maybe he was good in the sack - Beaker Sep 23, 12:12
        
        From what she can remember. She's not sure if it happened before that since she was so gone on drugs. -- nm - lileve Sep 23, 12:11 1
        
        maybe she came on to him! Totally not his fault. -- nm - Beaker Sep 23, 12:12
        
        err, scratch that logic -- nm - zork Sep 23, 12:10 1
