There is a Doctor in my area with TV adds advertising the procedure. That is why I asked about it

I have a friend who's in a similar situation with his hip. It's jacked up enough to be disruptive to his daily activities, flairs up significantly from time to time, and is a source of pain. Bad enough that they would happily prescribe him whatever painkillers he wants, but not bad enough to fix the problem.

Ah, I just remember it from a show I watched as a kid, Dot and the Kangaroo. Still think it's bizarre.

Wooow.. haven't heard that one... truly a frightening song haha. I love that riff at the start and peppered throughout... sounded like the start of a metal song!

They won't prescribe me pain pills, but likely I would not take them anyways. Got an arthritic hip too.

 

[granfire]

the good pills don't work for long anyhow.
and quitting them is a bear!
And they treat you like a criminal for wanting them.

I need some speed.
Coffee isn't doing it.

The coffee is definitely doing its job today out here. Just finished my second cup, and I'm feelin' good.

No caffeine for me normally-had a tiny bit of coke (the drink) this morning. Checked my fitbit, I've been averaging 3-4 hours sleep the last week or two.

No caffeine for me either, have not had any in 2 weeks.....acid reflux is keeping from my tea

 

[Steve]

This made me laugh so hard. "If people talked about coats the way they talk about vaccines."

That stinks. I like coffee too much. If I were to have to quit, I'd be very sad.

I quit drinking a while back. My wife gave up soda and I gave up alcohol. But instead of a glass of wine or a beer in the evening, I'll drink a cup of herbal tea. It would suck to have to give that up, too.

That was so OMG. I just sent that to everyone I know.

You just can't fix stupid.

Totally. And the timing and delivery of the two actors is priceless. That long pause and the end when he says, "Do I look sick?" pause... pause... "Kinda."

I'd like to see more of those guys.

Agreed. Also, since the thread isn't closed, I cannot allow you to have the last word.
