I’ve got a 55” Vizio smart tv and I really like it. It has all the apps to watch tv and movies. We don’t have a real big living room so going bigger would work for us.
But if I take off my glasses I would need a 75” or bigger  :laugh


Injected is nice, But I'd rather be Blown

Monitor was delivered Tuesday afternoon. Got it setup and seems to be better. I have been playing with the settings and able to see it a little better than the TV.  :good   Colors are much cleaner and crisper as well.

Got the garage door opener yesterday. Went out and got the old one down. While doing so discovered that the bracket that mounts to the header over the door was about to fall of due to it was half a$$ed installed. I will fix that so we don't have that issue again.  :good

Yea I hope so but so far I think it is not going to work. All they are doing is stretching my leg muscles. I really think it is something else.

Well, as long as it don't cause you any more pain than what it is now, just play the game for 4 weeks then go back to the Doc and tell him, enough of the bull$hit FIX it.

Well went to therapy yesterday didn’t seem to do anything but today it seemed like it was worse, they stretched and twisted my leg ways that it never has been before. If it gets any worse I will go back to the doc and tell him that it isn’t helping. I am not sure if they know what they are doing. The pain starts at my hip then down my leg. The therapist stretch my calf and ankle WTH.

I kinda expected that, I'd give it another day and if it's worse I'd tell them enough of that $hit, try something else or we're done. :beat

Yeah that’s what I am going to do, go to therapy one more time and if is the same or worse I will cancel it and go back to the doc.  For some reason I feel like it my be a blocked or restricted  artery. Because that leg I have a stent in so maybe that is the problem.

Sounds like a bulging disc poking the nerve or nerves all bundled together and pinching like I had, only way to know for sure is to have an MRI, that tells the whole story.

I just don’t know anymore, because today the other hip would get pain then the other side and leg would. I am just going to back to the doc and see what he says but I have to wait till my appointment. Meanwhile I will go to therapy and talk to them.

Sounds like therapy is making it worse, I was expecting that just tell them they are making it worse and you're not going to do that anymore and to come up with something else, you're supposed to get better not worse.. That sucks big time, been there done that.  :banghead

Got the new garage door up and working.  :good   Wasn't real hard just took time. I replaced everything. I didn't use anything from the old unit that looked like a Craftsman from the 70's that was a 1/2 horse. I installed an 2 horse screw drive Genie. Once all adjusted in I opens the door pretty quick. It also came with a keypad for outside. Been times I wish I had that.  I never have the remote buttons in the trucks, so I just put them away for now. After dismantling the old one, It fit real nice in the trailer for the next dump trip.  :D  :good

Had a meeting with my primary late yesterday afternoon.  They are going to get a referral through and an eye doc to get a second opinion. I hope this will kick someone in the a$$ and get something done besides milk the insurance.
