    - I don't see how you get a hernia from cirrhosis, but then, you're the med student, not me. -- nm - Mop Apr 30, 22:02 5
      - Well, here is the explanation that I got from the doc but now I need to put the pieces together. The portal hypertension causes build up of fluid in - James Bond (aka Igor) Apr 30, 22:06 2

- Bah, mine either :( -- nm - MojaveMeg Apr 30, 21:37
LYC: I've been doing a no-dairy experiment, and it's starting to look like I'm lactose intolerant. Sonofa. I thought it started much earlier than this -- nm - loosilu Apr 30, 21:22 14
- Drink Soy or Almond milk There's a chocolate milk that tastes great. - Trish Apr 30, 21:59 1
  - well, I actually have to avoid sugar (and those are loaded). Going to try Lactaid to see if it does the trick. - loosilu Apr 30, 22:02
- Got Cramps? -- nm - Redmond Apr 30, 21:57 1

- if you're not having dairy how are you lactose intolerant? -- nm - Remlik Apr 30, 21:25 8
  - Because my GI tract feels good, which is not usual. -- nm - loosilu Apr 30, 21:26 7
    - Well that answers your question (which you didn't ask). - nubby Apr 30, 21:28 6
      - we're all falling apart as we age :( -- nm - peglegpete Apr 30, 21:38
      - exactly my point. Although, I don't think it's been bad for 25 years or anything. Maybe 5? I don't recall. -- nm - loosilu Apr 30, 21:29 4
        
        You may be misunderestimating. - nubby Apr 30, 21:40 2
        
        Yes, you're right. I just don' tknow how long. it's weird to think about it. -- nm - loosilu Apr 30, 21:45 1
        
        what's even weirder though, is that my stomach hasn't made a sound all day. - loosilu Apr 30, 21:47

Over 5 miles walked today. I was feeling like I was beginning to slack off - need some more interesting routes. -- nm - MojaveMeg Apr 30, 20:11 4
- I take my GPS with me, so I can try new routes and measure the distance. -- nm - loosilu Apr 30, 20:12 3
  - I use a pedometer. I need to start driving to parks and the beach, but it's so much easier just to walk out the door and round the block. -- nm - MojaveMeg Apr 30, 20:19 2
    - the pedometer is only as accurate as how you set it. I can't seem to get a good measurement for the length of my stride. -- nm - loosilu Apr 30, 20:24 1
      - True, but it does give me a comparative value, and comes pretty close to what I get from an online route calculator. -- nm - MojaveMeg Apr 30, 20:40

A possible tornado in St. Louis and The Weather Channel is doing some lame storm re-enactment show? -- nm - mara Apr 30, 19:33 3

      - Hmm...I wonder how that AK was available. -- nm - the liioulu with keylime tartlet Apr 30, 18:47 9
        
        Yes, let's shift the goal posts so that we hold everyone accountable except for the person that actually shot the deputy... - Stephen Apr 30, 18:57 8
        
        We could all hold our opinions until the facts of the situation are clearly established...but then that wouldn't be us. -- nm - David Apr 30, 19:15 1
        
        I say we nuke the bastards! -- nm - CQ Apr 30, 19:31
        
        what do you mean, "except for"? How about "in addition to"? -- nm - Beryllium Apr 30, 18:59 2
        
        Far as I know, AK's aren't legal here; so laws won't matter. - Will Hunting Apr 30, 21:27
        
        In the immediate aftermath? - Stephen Apr 30, 19:03
