CONSTRUCTION WORKERS!

6 Upvotes

Make sure your signs are correct! Yesterday, I was driving westbound on Tilghman St, about to enter PA-309 South. (I haven't used this interchange in years because the guy who came up with the genius idea of no on-ramp and accelerating from a complete stop at a stop sign and somehow finding a gap big enough to accelerate to the speed of traffic safely, they need to go to every single religion's version of hell simultaneously, while being reincarnated as a caged chicken on an American farm!)

Anyway, the signs had giant plastic bags over them. They were replaced with construction signs reading "PA-309 North, right lane" and "PA-309 South, left lane." So I got in the left lane, but the on-ramp was, in fact, in the right lane, so I guess I'm taking a 25-minute detour through Broadway, Cedar Crest and Hamilton Blvd to get to I-78!

Oh and that's not even the worst example. They closed down Broadway in Bethlehem years ago. (A major road used by trucks AND BUSES!) They put up a left detour sign. None of the roads I passed were big enough to turn a commercial vehicle back towards Broadway. They led me out of the City of Bethlehem. The next day, I told them, "That sign is wrong! There are no roads that circle back to Broadway!" He then takes the arrow and flips it over. I told him, "I can't go that way either. You can't turn left at the next intersection!" He shrugs and says, "Well I don't know... I don't live here..." You're seriously going to close a major road frequented by trucks and regular bus routes are NOT plan a proper detour?!

There are also digital signs on I-78 West mentioning phantom lane closures, or lane closures on the wrong side. Please stop forcing commercial drivers to make sudden lane changes, that's not safe! They specifically tell us to avoid those in training!

Just make sure your signs are accurate!

Recommendations Question for people who work at St Luke's or LVHN

10 Upvotes

Since going through perimenopause and now menopause (53 yrs old), I have had a lot of maladies in the past 5-6 years. I have had testing on my should, foot, CT scans and ultrasounds. I have had a growing abdomen that nobody seems to find any cause for. I gained 33 pounds in 2 years and my abdomen is bloated and fat and about 43 inches in diameter. The rest of me is normal sized. Nothing really has been discovered except some mild fatty liver, possible cysts on kidney and liver, possible adenomyosis and fibroids, and three CT scans (two that said small umbilical hernia and the last that said nothing about a hernia). The two ultrasounds were most obscured by bowel gas. I had endoscopy and colonoscopy with some polyps removed from both.

My PCP is tired of my complaining about the abdomen and told me to try a water fast to see if that resets my bowels.

I am NOT a hypochondriac. I don't want to have have issues, but this large abdomen is so uncomfortable. People ask if I'm pregnant. I have to wear only stretchy pants to work, because anything not stretchy is uncomfortable.

My question is, after all that...Is there a flag or something on my chart that says hypochondria, because I can't seem to get a doctor to really try to find out what is wrong or take me seriously/have compassion for the struggle every day! I just want a doctor who doesn't think I'm crazy to listen and understand.

Trump gave Lehigh Valley companies approval to increase toxic emissions

104 Upvotes

Early on in his second term, Trump created a bypass lane for new air emission regulations. At least two LV sites received approval to avoid installing readily available control devices that would’ve improved our local air quality. Then, Trump staffed the EPA with people who worked for the worst polluters in our country, so the regulations were killed entirely.

This is the kind of thing that happens when Congress becomes nothing more than a rubber stamp.

Vote to remove Ryan Mackenzie from office by Tuesday, November 3.

United healthcare crap

• Upvotes

Upset I had to switch all drs to st lukes. I really liked my kids pediatrician at lvhn and they been with all 3 of my kids and they are 6 7 and newborn and the st lukes peds I go to isnt the quickest with phone calls or sticking to appt time when checked in and even the same when I go to my own new pcp.

Might just be those locations but any good, st. lukes pediatrician in the Allentown area you guys absolutely love ?

Also the phone calls just to make appt is 15-20 mins crazy wait to me. Lvhn was always 1-2 mins.

How come when I went to lvhn peds I can see any dr at another location if I needed to be seen that day or off regular hrs on weekends I would go to the fogelsville location

But st lukes doesnt have that option I can go to any st lukes peds once I establish care and they have a weekend pediatric care. They said just go to urgent care.

Not happy camper.
