Pain management

Hi, I have a bit of joint pain and stiffness and take OTC pain meds on an almost daily basis. I’ve tried PT, acupuncture, and massage. Each feels great for a little while and then eventually it comes back. I’ve lost weight and done some light exercise but it’s not helped. Any suggestions or should I just go to the dr? Thx!

Middle school is rough!

Hi yall, I’m new here, but I need help! My 13 yo daughter has asked if we can hide that my gf lives with us, including covering or hiding pictures of us together when her friends are over. She doesn’t want anyone to know at school that her mom is a lesbian. She says she will get bullied, which tbf I know is true. That being said, what I do in my home is my business and I will not hide at home.

This all came up because one of her friends cat sits for us from time to time and we recently hung a few pictures of us as a couple up in the hall. She’s afraid if her friend sees it, then the friend will tell the whole school and my daughter will get bullied.

Other than the usual things of telling my daughter how to deal with it or that bullies are bad or that maybe friends aren’t really our friends, what should I do or say to comfort my daughter but not hide the woman I love? Thx!

Verizon debt came back?

Hey y’all, I had some financial trouble about a year ago and couldn’t pay my Verizon bill so it went to collections. I finally paid the collection in full in April. Then last week I checked my credit report and a random $35 amount was reported only on Experian as owed. It is still showing closed and paid in full tho. I called Verizon and their records show nothing owed. Anyone know what would cause this? Thx!

Esophageal dysphasia

Hey yall, I have had my colonoscopy/endoscopy with no findings other than a tiny polyp that has been removed and a hiatal hernia. I have been prescribed pantoprazole, which is helping with my reflux. My issue now is choking - frequently! Not necessarily requiring intervention, but choking on water, air, or food at least once a day. Is it worth asking GI since nothing was seen? Is there anything that can be done? Thx!
