(61,033 posts)oh wait, that would put Vance in the WH.
We are so fucked. Just have to see them fuck up all around, which they're well on their way to. The mid-terms and off-year elections won't be kind to them.

I thought it was strange that the first thing Trump called for after he got clipped in the ear and as the SS was pushing him to safety were his shoes.
State Secret and all that--the man can't walk a straight line.

(10,988 posts)Seems like every other person is telling me they have sciatica. I wonder if some can be side effects of having Covid.
Im limping so I just might notice more people limping. Anyway - I question them and heres a biggie for those on Medicare - at least in NM. Dr will do an Xray but they need to do 6 weeks of Physical therapy before they can get an MRI.
So - I havent even gone to Dr because I live far away from any physical therapy- just doing YouTube physical therapy. (Which is really good by the way)
Also, some of my friends can barely walk the first minute they get out of their car but once they stretch, they walk better. I have foot drop from a snake bite and no ACL but walked fine before getting Covid. Who knows? Any of you guys having more trouble with your legs???

(135,552 posts)DVT is a blood clot in a deep vein, usually in the leg, thigh, or pelvis.
I know a couple of people who have gone through this. Both like Trump are elderly.
The danger of course is if the blood clot breaks loose and goes into the lungs or brains.
