I’m on nadolol and noticed my heart rate stays in the 130s- 140s during cardio with the occasional peak to 150. When I hit 150 I need to slow down. Just listen to your body and monitor your breathing and you should be good. I also have a pacemaker so that might have something to do with it as well. ...

re: Nasal polyps surgery

Had sinus and septum surgery about a year ago and they removed a load of polyps. I can breathe for the first time in years. First two weeks I had some pretty nasty drainage that was consistent.

Boiling Basket Replacement

Didn’t know if to post here or the OB board, but figured you could guide me to the right place. I have an old (assuming World War II) aluminum stockpot that I boil crawfish in that inherited from my wife’s great grandfather. The basket I use for the boil is homemade and is on its last leg. I believe...

I usually cube french bread and toast it in the oven for 15-20 at 325 to let it get really dry. Put it in a pyrex with sauce and let it soak over night before baking. This is my favorite [link=(https://cakescottage.com/2019/09/28/white-chocolate-bread-pudding/)]White Chocolate Bread Pudding[/lin...
