About batteries.

I have a number of Invicta watches that need new batteries. I have the tools to move forward but I would like to have a supply of the correct batteries before I open any backs.

Is there a few different battery model numbers that someone could recommend I buy before I get started?

Thank you.

Help a novice please.

New watch and the band adjustment is not obvious to me. There’s a slotted screw on one side and not on the other. There’s slotted screw just spins in either direction. Just don’t want to mess anything up. Thank you.

I’m a 63 year old retired United States Marine and I used to think I was “bulletproof”. A year and a half ago my pain free life changed and the insanity of “pain management” became “painfully” obvious.

Before I go on I must tell everyone here that compared a lot of you, your stories and the pictures, I have nothing to complain about. At my age we are rarely prone to looking outside of the immediate family for support. My parents are passed so it’s just me and my wife and she’s being a true angel. I’m also adopted so I have no family history to look at.

Here’s what’s going on. 1-1/2 years ago I had a violent pain in my neck. The long process of referrals, x-rays, MRI’s and CT scans starts. Then the steroid injection that never ever helped me.

They finally scheduled the fusion of C-4 to C-7. I had absolutely no pain during recovery. About 6 months later I start getting a violent pain from my lower back through my right leg and I couldn’t hardly walk.

So that process had to start just like with my neck. Same surgeon fused L-4 and L-5. Recovery for that was a very VERY PAINFUL week and a half.

No pain killers pre neck surgery. No pain killers pre or post lower back surgery except for a small amount of something I can’t spell to be accurate here. They helped buy they gave me enough for 3-4 days.

Move forward to today. I’m dealing with another pinched nerve in my neck between C-7 and as I understand it T-1. I have had the worst pain I have ever had running doe my neck into and around my shoulder blade into my elbow and down my right arm into my hand and fingers. I have been begging for painkillers and rhe only thing “ pain management” will give me is nerve blockers which are a joke. I actually had someone tell me that they didn’t want me to get addicted. ARE. YOU FU@@ING KIDDING ME!!!

All of the required steps are done and I have the final meeting with my surgeon on May 6th where we decide on surgery or whatever we are going to do. Between now and then I get no pain killers. When we meet he will have his staff call me to scheduled the surgery. I can’t get a painkillers before the surgery AND if I have any post surgery pain I can just be a good boy and take a nerve blockers. I’ve considered going out on the street and risk getting arrested or fentanyl laced something.

I have a fairly high pain tolerance but this is what pain killers and pain management should be focusing on.

Has anyone else been put through this insanity?

Thank you for listening.
