*pharmacy technician hat* It's also possible that is has to do with step therapy: other drugs work, and are cheaper, so a lot of insurances won't cover azelastine until you're on record as having tried other (cheaper) stuff first
JESUS CHRIST CAPITALISM IS THE REASON I HAD A TWO MONTH SINUS INFECTION.
Sorry not yelling at you, just yelling :D Of course the insurance company wants me to buy the OTC they donāt have to pay for. Jesus CHRIST.Ā

My gp was just like, "Just use Flonase whenever you're congested." And it's worked wonders; I've only had one sinus infection since, as opposed to the several a year I'd had before that point.

Azelastine is an antihistamine, where otrivin is... something else. Have you tried flonase yet? That's what we give people here in the hospital!
Sadly, Flonase sits at the very top of theĀ ādoes nothing for me at allā list. Doesnāt even make my nose run. Just sits there and tastes bad. :DĀ

So, this was fascinating, but i initially read "History of Consumption" and went the tuberculosis route, not the consumer goods route and was a little perplexed at how the Sears catalogue linked to pulmonary health.
HAHAHA ME TOO. I didnāt mention it because I didnāt want to dilute the message, but yeah my immediate thought wasĀ āthe history of tuberculosis? Thatās an understandable but very niche class...ā

Oh! can we get deets on where to send the old Roombas For Science? Our poor old Rosey is ready to go to a nice farm upstate.
Oh, this wasnāt anything formal, I just asked Knotta (who is a childrenās librarian) if she wanted it for anyone who was nerdy enough to want to take apart a Roomba. But you should check around with childrenās libraries, STEM programs, and scout troops in your area, someone may want it.Ā

Oh, speaking of, didn't a friend of yours do research and have a recommendation for uprights? When we got rid of the wall to wall, we switched to lighter cordless stick vacs, but we're on the third and they ALL suck. (or I guess technically, don't suck) gave up on Hoover eons ago, Bissel lost our loyalty with this last one that chokes up on ANYTHING other than the finest dust. (who puts a 80 degree corner in the throat of a wimpy stick vac?!)Ā
Yes! One of my co-workers wanted an efficient, cost-effective vacuum that would handle their dogās hair decently. They went with the Dirt Devil Quick Lite. I looked at it, but I opted for the Black & Decker Airswivel Ultra because it was slightly lighter and had a longer cord.Ā
There are things Iām not crazy about -- to unlatch the handle (so that it tilts) you just put your foot on the vacuum and press down, and then it snaps back into place when youāre done, but it doesnāt always snap on the first try and Iām just waiting for that latch to break. It also doesnāt have any way to adjust the height of the brush, so it can be rough going on denser-weave carpets. If you have wall-to-wall carpeting I would not recommend, but I just have small area rugs and runners, and it does fine on all but one of those, and itās pretty good on my vinyl flooring, too. Itās great at getting up dust and cat hair, and for $70 I didnāt expect a lot of bells and whistles, so on balance Iām glad I bought it. But I think itās definitely a vacuum for someone like me, who only has 900 square feet to vacuum and most of that not carpeting.Ā Ā

I tried for years to use neti pots and they never worked. Turns out I have a deviated septum.
Yep, I have a punctured septum, so it just goes in one nostril and out the other.

@copperbadge The fact that your roomba was named MagNeato has me in stitches. XD
It gets better, it wasnāt even a Roomba -- it was a roomba-knockoff by the Neato Company, thatās why we named it MagNeato :D My original Roomba was Dalek Suck (after Dalek Sek).Ā

Do you know about plantar fasciitis? It causes arch pain, and I hear it can happen through running. I had it for a year (I did it through actual injury and couldn't rest it until 4 hours after, so mine was a bad case) and it sounds similar to what you're describing.
Thatās what I thought this was! Thatās why I ran on it, because plantar fasciitis pain usually fades with activity. Itās been suggested to me that it looks more likeĀ peroneal tendonitis and I think thatās probably the case. Notably, I get some relief when I ice not the bottom of the foot but the back of my ankle.Ā
