Hey fishies, anyone here ever had endovenous laser treatments for veins on the leg? I have some reticular veins on my shins and am considering it and wanted some real feedback first. I am 28 and a little nervous, but I’d rather tackle this now rather than have the veins look worse. TIA!

I have vericose. It's progressive. I had several veins shut down using laser. It's not comfortable but it's not that bad. The worst part is the pain injections prior to the procedure and having to wear compression stockings for a week while it healed. Make sure you have a good Dr. That's pretty important.

Are they hurting you/causing you pain/impacting activity? Removing veins is not a benign procedure

Ok, I’m gonna say this. Schools should open. Now hear me out. My wife is a family doctor, she is working insane hours, she is treating covid patients, and there is a lot of days when she has to stay at the hospital without coming home. My neighbour works in a local grocery store, so he has been at work since the Day 1 of lockdown. So if you need medical help, or want to eat, it’s ok for those people to be at work, but their kids have to stay home? Cont’d >>

Hi everyone, I am getting ready for a job interview, and need to create a media plan. I was hoping someone can help me with the next task: basically, I need to create inventory recommendation based on past performance. What I am very confused about is that they gave me Booked Impressions (=4M), but in the task it says I should assume there is unlimited inventory. Am I supposed to use this 4M only to calculate spend, ROAS, etc., but can actually have unlimited allocated impressions? Thank you!
