You guys are so funny - arguing for the sake of arguing.

Texas mods feel good about everyone. AP does have a certain way of letting us down easily. Iā€™m not ready to say he is going to Texas. Iā€™m also not discounting the fact that only one team being mentioned besides us, and by many ā€œin the knowā€, is a real concern as to our odds at securing his commitment. They wouldnā€™t all be saying it if the interest wasnā€™t legit. Letā€™s hope we win the battle. Would love to get the ball rolling on a star studded defensive haul.

Also, maybe move all this to the utley thread where it belongs?

Honestly, for that level of beef, I really don't like it to have been frozen. Prime and above I prefer fresh.

And wagyu is soooo rich, it's a chore to eat a whole steak. Find a local place to get it fresh even though it costs more, get a little bit less to break even.

And research how to cook it if you're not a pro. All that fat needs to be rendered, can't just medium rare quick like a normal steak.

Did a splurge one night myself, can't remember the occasion. But I ordered one at Jeff Ruby's in Nashville and it was beyond good! It was cut thick, unbelievably tender and juicy . Regardless of what steak I order, I want a thick cut and I want it medium rare.

You can and should go medium rare, but a thick one with wagyu sometimes needs to be seered and slow cooked or reverse seered.

I'm no expert, I just screwed it up once and someone told me how I screwed it up.

I had one at Kayne Prime in Nashville, it was incredible. But 6 ounces felt like 12 ounces, so rich!

Have you seen an Ophthalmologist to make sure no eye issues? (I definitely donā€™t know jack about eyes).
If itā€™s a optic nerve issue, or even a visual cortex problem that presents itself as a visual problem, have you seen a Neurologist.

Iā€™m assuming that you have seen both.
Have you been checked for a B-12 or Folate deficiency? Both are associated with cases of Visual Snow Syndrome.

This sounds like it is a form of nerve pain or neuralgia. Even nerve injury.
I would recommend taking two course of action
1. Take vitamin B6 100 mg daily, vitamin B12 1,000 mcg daily and Super B complex one daily. I like Nature Bounty but mainly because Krogerā€™s has it 2 for 1 all the time.
Do not take more than 100 mg of B6 daily. Itā€™s the only water soluble vitamin that can be toxic at higher doses. 100 mg is definitely safe. I had tinnitus (auditory nerve damage issue) Was told nothing could be done. It rarely bothers me anymore by doing the above vitamin mix.

2. Neuropathic pain modulating meds can help any neuralgia type issue. One I frequently prescribe is Sertraline (it has been shown to help with Visual Snow Syndrome in some patients. There are two families of medications that can help with nerve pain, dysfunction issues. Anti-seizure meds and antidepressants. I treat nerve pain frequently with these meds. The nice thing is once your Visual Snow Syndrome resolves, you can stop the medicine that helps you. The most important thing is not to go high dose. For seizures and depression, it takes a higher dose than it does for nerve related issues.
If the medicine doesnā€™t help you, donā€™t let the doc just keep going higher if it isnā€™t helping. If itā€™s helping at lower doses, then trying a higher dose is reasonable.
I will list the ones that I have the most success with:
Anti-seizure meds: gabapentin, pregabalin, oxcarbazepine
Make sure that the doc stays low dose. Remind them that they are not treating seizures.

Anti-depressants: Sertraline, paroxetine, Effexor, Celexa, Cymbalta, trazodone.
Older meds can help too, but take longer to help: amitriptyline and nortriptyline
Make sure that the doc stays low dose. Remind them that they are not treating depression.

lamotrigine Has shown promise and helped some patients (I know nothing about that drug) but found it looking for something to help.

Find the nearest Neuro-Ophthalmologist as they have probably treated VSS before.

VSS has been associated with ocular migraines. Find a medication that helps your migraines and it may get rid of the VSS too.

I hope that helps.

To the rest of VN, this is the very reason why I canā€™t just skip ahead to catch upā€¦

So this is for the people who have cut the cable cord and donā€™t use big cable companies. What do you guys use? I mean we donā€™t really watch a lot of premium channel movies. We do like Netflix and thatā€™s about it. Mostly we watch sports and some other things on regular channels. So whatā€™s a good alternative to cable for getting local channels?

Also, what do you guys do for internet?
