I hurt my left shoulder. I can raise my arm, but when I put my hand on my right shoulder, my left shoulder is in severe pain …
If I had slept wrong, I would have left it to heal naturally, but I want to start playing sports and I want to heal it as soon as possible. ? Anyone know of a good doctor or technician who is covered by Kaiser insurance ?

I had the same symptoms, frozen shoulder,
I got an injection at Urgent Care in Hawaii Kai and it went away in about 5 days, but it came back if I didn't move it, and the injection is good the first time, but it doesn't work after a few times, so be careful. Please be careful.
Take care.

I am so sorry to hear that you are still in pain after a month. We have a massage ? bodywork ? doctor called Kyoseido Therapy located by Kaimuki High School. I don't think insurance will be accepted, but the pain and symptoms that were not cured by Kaiser have been improved by going to this place. By the way, he is a Japanese doctor alone.

During the corona period, I suddenly could not raise my left arm, so I went to see Kaiser and was diagnosed with a frozen shoulder. I went to Kaiser Physical Therapy for a while, but it never got better, so I stopped going there.

Later, when my corona had settled down, I went to see an osteopath in Japan and was diagnosed with a supraspinatus rotator cuff injury. I went to the hospital every day for electric therapy, massage, and exercises using equipment, and I got a little better. One day at a super public bath, a Korean lady gave me a lymphatic massage as a service, and for the first time in two years, my left arm, which had not been able to come up for two years, came back to its normal position.

Now I have pain and numbness in my right arm, and when I saw Kaiser last week, I had an x-ray that day and a nerve test later that day. I was also told to get Physical Therapy so I made an appointment.

I have also had physical therapy and massage without insurance, but it sometimes made my symptoms worse, so if you have Kaiser insurance, why not see Kaiser first? They will refer you to the right department and doctor for your pain and symptoms.

Thank you all !
I will try a few places.
I also consulted with a chiropractor in Kahala who does acupuncture, and the pain went down a little
yesterday.
I was told to wait and see for a few days because the muscle itself is already inflamed, so if the situation doesn't change after that, I will try the injections you mentioned. Thank you very much !

Payment of ESTIMATED tax for sole proprietorships

Question

I have a question about paying ESTIMATED TAX for a sole proprietorship.
I did my tax file for 2023 and paid my estimated tax for 2024 online.
However, I may have made a mistake in entering the information.
On the Department of taxation site, when I go to the
tab and choose what applies
1, Paid for … . Is it correct to use "individual income" here?
2, Filing period year … . Is 2024year correct here ? (2023 ? 2024 ? )

Also, if I input wrong information in online payment like this, will they contact me for confirmation ?
. <1466> I have tried to contact them by phone, but the phone lines have been dead.
Thank you very much.

I myself have a good image of the school, it is very lively and the director is very smiling and responsive.

I am looking forward to hearing your opinions.

I am currently attending the school. What I appreciate most is that almost all of the teachers can understand Japanese. As a Japanese family, it is great to be able to communicate with the teachers, and my child enjoys going to the school without feeling any barrier of Japanese ・ or English. Whenever I talk to the teachers, I know that they truly care about my child. I think the tuition is a good deal when you look at the ratio of time they take care of your child.
The only drawback is the location. If it were a little closer to Town, it would be easier to attend.

I have a question about primary care doctors
do your primary care doctors contact you once a year for check ups
I don't get any
I don't get any because it's expensive here and I tend to be lazy about it
I don't get any notice, so I don't do it after all I'm not sure if I can do it if I make an appointment myself
I know a doctor who gets my mail
I don't really like him
I'd like to change my mind
I'd like to know your situation too By the way, I'm a Japanese doctor now. Doctor.

Mine called me every six months to come in.
It is a Japanese doctor.
Thank you, but
blood tests, x-rays, and other expenses are quite expensive.
Rather than trying to find out what is wrong with me in the early stages,
I feel like he is trying to attract patients because of the decrease in patients due to the corona,

I took a chance and changed doctors.
He is a Japanese doctor.
I have not been contacted for an appointment.
But if you have a problem, he will see you remotely and quickly. I hope you find a doctor you like.

Usually, primary care doctors, gynecologists, dentists, and I make an appointment for the next year at the reception desk at the end of my visit. If it is not convenient for me because it is the next year, I can change it by phone or online (in the case of doctors in Queens, Kapiolani).
As for my daughter's pediatrician, I call and make an appointment around her birthday.
If it helps.

Since I don't get the contact, I have decided to set my birthday as the month of the inspection and do all the various checkups together in that month.

Annual checkups are not mandatory, so I think you need to manage your own appointments.

If you tell them that you are not satisfied with the customer service of your insurance and you want to change, they will find a doctor for you.

It depends on your insurance plan, so even if you want this doctor, it is impossible to change
if the doctor does not handle your insurance.

This is a continuation of my previous post about my child's blood test that showed high lead levels, so she was retested. May I ask if I may ask this frustration here ?
The results of the retest were negative, but they charged me $ 90 for the test ! The pediatrician told me that the first blood draw is done by taking blood from my finger and putting it in a container, so sometimes the wrong numbers are given. He told me that usually the numbers are 2 or less, but there were 9. The Lead Poisoning Prevention Program office called me and sent me a booklet. They said that if these lead numbers are correct, even if there are no symptoms now, there will be problems with learning ability. I was very sorry about where my child had gotten so much lead, and my husband was furious with me, and I was worried about what would happen to her life. On a slightly different note, I recently went to my family doctor's office to have a blood test done because I had severe eczema and the itching was painful. When I went to get the results, I found that I had an allergy reading. My family doctor had also ordered an allergy test at the blood test office, but no allergy test was done, and as a result, I was never able to find out what I was allergic to. By the time I went to get the results, the eczema had gone away and I was told that they would not be able to tell without taking blood when I had an allergic reaction. How is this possible ? I would appreciate any sympathy or advice here as well. I think I need to make sure that when I get a proper bill for this, I make sure that allergy testing is not included.

Well, it's different from Japanese hospitals. ?
I know you wrote that $90 is ! different from 30% of everything in Japan, so
I'd be relieved if it was less than $100.
At any rate, I'm glad everything is okay. If you distrust doctors and clinics,
just switch. It's a country where you can do that without regret.

Blood test fee $ 90 is cheap.

I had an allergy test done before, but the items were very detailed, about 100 items, and the co-pay was $ 220.
I was surprised that my insurance didn't cover it ? but
I was convinced that it clarified where my allergy was coming from.

I heard that a friend of mine had an allergy test in Japan
for 219 food sensitivities and paid 5,000 yen, 15,000 yen at 30% of the cost, so it is not an unsatisfactory medical bill.

A patch test, not a blood test, can be done even when eczema is not present, but the cause may be unknown.

Thank you for your comment !
I was frustrated because if my child did not have a blood test, it would have been a few dollars for a 2 year old check up, but $ it was 90. I had visited this pediatrician many times for other than the usual checkups, but I was not prepared for this because they always $ never charged more than 20. If I thought for sure it should be expensive $ 90 might have seemed cheap.
And the allergy test was for me, not the child, and I have not yet received a bill for it. So it may be a test that is not covered by insurance ! I will call my doctor and check before I wait for the bill !
I was wondering if there is more of a problem with the blood test lab than with the doctor's office regarding these two events. I wondered if anyone else has had problems with blood testing recently, but there doesn't seem to be any.
Thanks for reading !

#5 Mr. Worried

Maybe I wrote that wrong.
$ 220 for blood test was
$ 220 co-pay with insurance.

Without insurance $ it would be over 1000.

I know you are angry about the mismanagement of your child's blood test, but
$ 90 is good because it bought you peace of mind ?

As far as I know, blood tests are usually ordered by the doctor to the lab. The amount charged depends on what is being tested for and how many items are being tested. And I think the percentage covered depends on the type of insurance you have.

Lately, when I move my neck up and down, it hurts a lot, and the pain doesn't go away even after about a week.
I also have stiff shoulders, and my neck and shoulders hurt a lot, but this time it seems to be a little worse.
I'm thinking of going to a hospital to have it checked out, but
if I have pain in my neck, cervical spine, etc., can you recommend a hospital in Hawaii with what specific department, etc. ?
Thank you very much in advance.

It is normal to first see your primary care physician, explain your symptoms, and then have him or her contact a specialist. Even if you say you have neck/shoulder pain, it could be an internal organ or brain disorder. Please get an App as soon as possible.

I think it is an ORTHPEDIC doctor. https://oahawaii.com/

You can call the office and ask them to send you to a neck specialist, or there is a walk-in clinic that does not require an appointment at a time, so they can give you x-rays and pain meds there as well.

Stiff shoulders and neck can be a sign of subarachnoid hemorrhage.
If it is just fatigue, that is fine, but please go to the hospital and get checked out as soon as possible just to be safe.
A primary care doctor should be the first step.
Take care of yourself!

If anyone knows more about this, please let me know.
Actually, the other day I was involved in a hit and run in a supermarket parking lot.
I am planning to use my car insurance to repair it, but in this case ( even if I use it for hit-and-run ) will the insurance premiums go up ?
I asked GEIKO, but they didn't give me a clear answer, so I would appreciate it if someone who has had the same case in the past could help. I have asked GEIKO but they have not given me a clear answer.

I am sure it will go up if you use insurance for whatever reason. Even though I didn't use it, it went up this year for reasons of rising prices.

If you have a police report, you could submit it to the insurance company and let them know that the accident was not your fault.

There is no guarantee that rates will not go up...

Recently, animal petting cafes from Japan have finally "landed"
in Hawaii.

With its good marketing
, it is attractive to animal lovers

and they end up going to places where they can "touch" and interact with animals.

(The cat cafe in Kaimuki is protection based
so please support us. \v966>
Other animal cafes that sell "animals that don't even know what will happen to them in their old age"
are
subject to exploitation by humans.

If you are a true animal lover
please
volunteer and touch them at the Humane Society, which is still understaffed 🙇🏻‍ ♀ ️

no more pitiful Don't you want to reduce puppy mills and unnecessary killings

Thank you for being such a kind soul like you.

I agree !
When a certain Japanese animal contact cafe opened, I was very disappointed because I thought it would be protection based. My Japanese family members each have their own animals, but they are all purchased from pet stores. As long as there are a certain number of people who have a low awareness of animal protection, I think this kind of business will never go away. I am fed up with the culture that treats animals like stuffed animals just because they are cute.

I would love to take her in, but
I have two guinea pigs myself and don't have the capacity.
Once you take them to the Humane ・ Society,
some people will adopt them from there.
In fact, that's where I got my two current ones and my past ones.
As a fellow moll,
I hope you find a good home for them
where they can stay until the end. Please have a safe trip home.
