  1. It takes over a month to get here by mail from Swanson's or have it shipped to Alex at his Laredo address to bring here. https://www.swansonvitamins.com/q?kw=Glucosamine+Chondroitin+with+MSM Amazon MX has it: https://www.amazon.com.mx/s?k=MSM&__mk_es_MX=ÅMÅŽÕÑ&ref=nb_sb_noss
  2. Yes, I am morally superior. I think people should have healthcare.
  3. Red states are debtor states. They receive more federal money than they pay. They have the lowest education rates, lowest life spans, poorest health and score in the bottom of all states for anything that makes life better. Maybe their lack of education causes them to think that accepting the most federal help, food stamps, welfare, etc., is why they don't understand Medicaid? There is a reason you only hear the term, "Liberal Intellectual" and not "Conservative Intellectual." https://www.psychologytoday.com/intl/blog/the-scientific-fundamentalist/201003/why-liberals-are-more-intelligent-conservatives
  4. Red states leave billions sitting in the table for Medicaid and refuse to expand it. This is Tennessee https://www.healthinsurance.org/tennessee-medicaid/
  5. You have to use the US Consulate notary. A Notario has a similar name but is an attorney not a US Notary Public. When the consulate is at LCS the notary is also.
  6. The bank can't alert you if your phone or email was hijacked by a hacker. The hacker gets the notice, not you. Check your security information regularly. If you can get a 2 step authorization code. These free apps will receive a code on your phone to authorize a log in. https://play.google.com/store/search?q=authorization apps&c=apps&hl=en
  7. Email the manufacturer and ask if they have vendors here or how much shipping is to MX or ship it to a Laredo address to be brought here. https://www.shadeforplants.com/
  8. Texas farmers are worried because it will cost them billions. They expect Mexico to retaliate with like tariffs. It will also hurt other big farming states who are already almost bankrupt because China found other soybean sources. US farmers are not happy at all.
  9. Every time I buy something on Mercardolibre or Amazon.MX, Banco Azteca calls or sends an SMS to confirm a purchase. It did irritate me until my US accounts were hacked last week. From now on I will patiently respond to them.
  10. I spent all last week changing security information on my US bank, PayPay, eBay, 3 money transfer companies and others. The money transfer companies always send an email confirming a transfer. They didn't last week and neither did my bank. The hacker got into my accounts and changed my email address to his address so he was sent the notices. It was a Russian sending my money to Poland. He bought gift cards from eBay and other companies I have used so he could cash the gift cards. Download a two-step security authentication app for your phone or computer https://www.login.gov/help/signing-in/what-is-an-authentication-app/. I thought I could count on my bank and other companies to notify me but they couldn't because the accounts were hacked.
  11. Those should be earthworms, not red wigglers.
  12. Some in Mexico. I didn't read enough to know if any are electric. https://listado.mercadolibre.com.mx/recumbent-trike#D[A:recumbent trike] https://www.amazon.com.mx/s/ref=sr_nr_n_2?fst=as%3Aoff&rh=n%3A14327180011%2Ck%3Arecumbent+trike&keywords=recumbent+trike&ie=UTF8&qid=1549108375&rnid=15997893011&ajr=0
  13. A notario has training in closings. A regular attorney doesn't. The papers are not ready until after the closing so how is it a regular attorney is going to read the papers and tell the notario that the notario made a mistake? The only way to have it reviewed is by another notario and that probably won't happen. A regular attorney probably wouldn't know if a notario made a mistake. It is like having a family doctor review the brain surgery of a neurologist. Would you do that?
  14. A Notario is an attorney with additional training who was appointed by a state's governor and approved by the federal government. You cannot have an attorney approve the work of an attorney who outranks him and for which the attorney has no training.
  15. Amazon US is great. Just make sure you enter your MX shipping address so you are told when looking at a product if it can be shipped to Mexico. It is better to click on "Ship to Mexico" on the left menu and the seller, "Amazon.com." Shipping from an Amazon warehouse is cheaper and faster. It always is shipped with DHL. If it is shipped by another vendor it can cost more and might not be DHL. Once DHL has the order you can count on it being delivered within 3 days and that is regular shipping, not Prime.
  16. If you had an allergic reaction, how could Dr Aceves know that in advance? I would not have gone to Ajijic Hospital (Clinic.) I don't understand, if you were practicing yoga before the procedure, why do the procedure? Take anti-inflammatories until nothing works and you must have a more drastic treatment. It is like back surgery. Don't have it without MRIs, discograms, myelogram or other tests first. Then only have surgery if PT or other conservative treatments cannot help. Any surgery is always risky. You are lucky you are recovering and you can afford the recovery.
  17. Tramadol does nothing for me. The best I've found here is the generic Lyrica. It is great for most pain.
  18. I know psychiatrists are MDs but they prescribe medicines for mental health, not pain meds.
  19. Why is a psychiatrist taking a pain med course? Maybe, like doctors in the US thought for years, a person can become an addict if he gets pain meds. A person can only become addicted if he takes more than needed to treat the pain. If it only relieves pain and doesn't cause euphoria, he will not become addicted. People heal faster when the body is not in pain.
  20. Your sister-in-law is wrong. Treating pain helps a patient to heal faster. Tell her to read about it. https://www.npr.org/templates/story/story.php?storyId=120381128
  21. In the first link, the lesson is don't let an 8 year old drive a cart with a 97 year old controlling the pedals. In the second, it is being investigated for cause of death. Supposedly she was struck by a relative but why she dies is unknown. In decades, possibly two people were killed after being struck. Thousands more died from motorcycle, car and truck accidents.
  22. It is very hard to find insurance for motorcycles. I doubt any company insures golf carts. How much damage can someone do going 10 MPH in a lightweight vehicle, damage that cannot be paid out of pocket? License tags are taxes. A license tag does not insure safety only that a road tax was paid. Most electric carts cannot go 20MPH. I think the max speed for my 341CC Kawasaki Gas (lawn mower) engine is 10MPH. Most gas golf carts have lawn mower engines so not very speedy.
  23. License plates are state issued aren't they? Where in Joco are license plates issued?
  24. Why don't you ask the OP if she did that? This wasn't about you. If you are easily led, that's too bad. The generic Lyrica is safer than what she wants and the medicine she wants must be administered by a doctor. Finding a doctor in Mexico to administer it will be very difficult.
  25. Why wouldn't a person ask a doctor about a medication that the person heard about? It would be incredibly responsible to believe all the medication TV commercials without asking about them. I mentioned that it might be better than Ketamine. Hopefully, she has enough sense to find out about it just like asking a doctor about Ketamine. People need to take some responsibility and investigate for themselves what they are told. You are assuming the person asking about Ketamine is too dumb to find out about other medications. I think she can ask her doctor herself.
