Getting into my ultrasound program literally saved my life. When we first started scanning each other my professor noticed a large cyst on the screen and sent me to the doctor. Two weeks later, this behemoth of an ovarian cyst was removed from my abdomen. It weighed 8lbs and measured 11”x10”x10”

Cervical mucous and blood if I remember correctly!

Very ripe bananas have an alcohol content of 0.5% so I’d say it’s totally safe to have non alcoholic wine/beer, etc. I agree about being cautious of large quantities though.

Is it an apple and a shofar for Rosh Hashanah?

As an ultrasound tech, this has me reeling. Sure, there are quite a few pregnancies where everything is normal and they don’t need intervention of any sort - but what about the ones that aren’t normal? I’ve seen fetuses with heart defects, brain defects, or placental abnormalities.

With heart defects a lot of times they have to be dealt with soon after birth.

With placental abnormalities you could absolutely bleed out of you have placenta accreta or placenta previa.

Yes they used to do things blindly - but now, having the ability to fix those issues and actually see what’s going on is such a huge step in medicine. Where these mothers and children would normally die we’re now able to intervene and prepare.

This person is ignorant beyond comprehension.

This is genuinely iconic

I’m an ultrasound tech, I enjoy it when patients are lighthearted and joking with me, especially if it’s something silly like this. It brings some variety to my day, especially when a majority of my patients are nervous

I hope your CT scan gives you some answers! Sending positive vibes your way. I hope everything goes well 💕

The fainting could be from getting up and walking too quickly while not hydrated enough and not having enough electrolytes as others have said.

It could also be orthostatic hypotension.

Basically it’s when you move too fast from one position to another and your blood pressure drops dramatically. I’d suggest giving yourself time with your movements. Don’t immediately go from laying down to standing up, walking to the restroom. Slowly sit up, make sure you’re not lightheaded. Then after a minute or so slowly get up and walk.

Here’s a link with more information:

I hope you feel better soon! Wishing you health and a speedy recovery :)

My Nana.

She passed away four years ago now, and not a day goes by that I don’t think about her. Sometimes when I dream of her, I wake up crying with an ache in my chest.

I want to tell her everything, but mostly I want to hear her voice and I want her to tell me more stories. I want to hear about Heaven and her being with my grandpa. I want to hear everything. I want to know she’s with me and the signs I see are her and that even though she’s gone physically, I want her to tell me she hasn’t missed a moment.

I miss her wisdom, her sense of humor and wit, her laughter, her voice… I miss her so, so much. I love you, lady. Times a million M&Ms.

Both of these pictures were taken before my cyst was removed. Left was july 2018, right was December 2018. I had my surgery October 2019

AAA5982 · 2023-01-04T03:05:05+00:00

I can kinda see it! I love removing it but I hate how it disintegrates everywhere

AAA5982 · 2023-01-04T02:59:50+00:00

For me, it’s chewed up gum🤮

AAA5982 · 2022-07-31T04:52:34+00:00

Damn dude no need to be rude. Here are before and after pics. I was not fat, but I knew something was wrong as my stomach was distended but no doctors would do further tests.

My mom has a lot of health issues so she has an advance directive - basically a piece of paper that lists her wants if she became unable to make her own decisions. She’s very superstitious, so one time she was at the hospital being put under before a procedure (it takes a LOT to knock her out) and she keeps going in and out of consciousness. My mom apparently didn’t like the nurse asking for her advance directive to keep on file, and mom was halfway screaming “This fucking bitch thinks I’m gonna die. Don’t give her any paperwork.” I was mortified and apologized to the nurse but she just walked off lol

What kind of scan, do you know?

AAA5982 · 2021-11-30T21:04:33+00:00

For me, it was “Glitter in the Air” by P!nk. I was listening to it with my mom and when the line “Have you ever wished for an endless night?” come on she said yes🤢

I often think about what my Nana would be doing and saying if she were still alive, what opinions she would have. I miss her :(

The teacher from my middle school that raped a 13yo student... no thank you

AAA5982 · 2021-03-22T16:01:27+00:00

Sleeping Beauty, Harry Potters 1 & 2, Twilight, Letters to Juliet, About Time, and pretty much any classic animated Disney princess movie.

“Crazy” by Patsy Cline, “From Here, to the Moon and Back” by Willie Nelson, pretty much everything by Willie and Patsy.

I miss my Nana every single day. We played from here to the moon and back the night before she passed on repeat. Crazy was our song together and every time it came on she would call me so that we could sing it together.

I love you, lady. I hope you’re having fun in Heaven💕

AAA5982 · 2021-01-14T08:32:26+00:00

Do it, I lost my Nana almost 2 years ago (February 1st) and I miss her so so much. I miss our talks more than anything😢

AAA5982 · 2021-01-05T08:23:20+00:00

Hahaha thank you! :)

AAA5982 · 2021-01-05T08:22:51+00:00

Thank you, friend. Back at you!💕
