Neither TIAs (ministrokes) or seizures will show up on CT. sometimes seizures will have some residual stuff on mri, but not always.

This is useful as saying a stroke didn’t show up on his prostate exam.

My BiL lost a ton of weight on Ozempic but he said it was one of the worst experiences of his life.

He was 46 and morbidly obese toeing the line between pre-diabetes and just actual diabetes. And he has four young kids. He lost 120 pounds but he said he was basically incontinent, nauseated, and just generally felt like poo poo and farted constantly. It can save your rear end, but you won't like it much.

how long does it take to lose 120 pounds on the miracle drug, rapid weight loss is rather unhealthy, is it actually dangerous for that reason?

This was over the course of a year and he and my sis got him a personal trainer for the gym and went on a pescatarian diet 6 days a week and cut way back on booze. He's much healthier and working with a dietician to maintain now that he's dropped so much weight, but it was an ordeal. The pills ain't magic, and you go through a lot of pain for not a lot of gain if you don't accompany the medication with lifestyle changes.

If he quit now he, his party, and the government would all be better off but he just can't help himself.

Die Mitch Mcdonalds!

Is this right?
He can't step down because Kentucky's governor is a Democrat who gets to select the next Senator from Kentucky if there is a position to fill. The state legislature passed a law requiring the Gov to pick a replacement selected by the previous Senator's state party apparatus, but the law hasn't been challenged constitutionally.

So there is real danger that McConnell is replaced by a Democrat if the Gov just ignores the potentially unconstitutional law. Given that Sinema/Manchin are the necessary buffer to keep any crazy non-oligarchic poo poo from going down, it's a risk too big to take.

Kentucky's Dem Gov is also a slight favorite to win re-election, so Mitch will never step down. He might disappear totally ala Feinstein, but he will be a Senator until after Beshear is no longer the Gov of Kentucky.

dems: Mitch McConnell is a strategic and tactical super genius. We can’t stop him. we can’t even hope to contain him. We want to do so many good things, honest, but we are just mercilessly dunked on by the Lebron James of congressional procedure

I think that death might have something to say about that old bitch's plans.

They all know death is knocking, but it's either die in the relative obscurity of retirement or lie in the capitol where the rest of the government and the national media rend their garments over how great you were. They've made it this far, so why not stick it out a little longer for the good one?
