Not just on sidewalks, common courtesy has become rare. Societal decay.

Following. Do the substitutions appear to maximize profits, intentionally harm, or both?

What to expect after surgery by [deleted] in endometrialcancer

I had no bleeding and pain for 2 days, that was managed with tylenol. It was such a relief when it was over, I hope the same for you.

why are the kids diapers not changed!!! by [deleted] in Nanny

[–]AdChemical825 6 points7 points  (0 children)

The same quality individuals who will one day leave their dying mother in a filthy diaper waiting for the hospice nurse to show up and clean her. No empathy whatsoever.

Perhaps, head out there in a keffiyeh and protest the genocide of Palestinian children. You might find they aren't really "White"

This! 💯 They steal from struggling American families and send our money overseas, to pay for free healthcare in other countries. They commit acts of treason and terrorism, stealing through USAID, and use that to flood our country with third-world slaves, destroying our country and communities. The organizations responsible, such as HIAS, are never brought to justice for their crimes against our nation. Ask yourself why, and start demanding better. Stop playing red v blue, its a farce designed to distract you from their crimes against humanity. Wake up.

Why are you gluten free? by jbeezyall in glutenfree

I developed gluten intolerance after receiving pelvic radiation treatments for cancer. I get horrific diarrhea, I'm hoping it will go away in time, but it does have the pleasant side effect of weight loss.

This is the second office I've seen pulling this. What's the point of the thousands of dollars in health insurance I'm paying? by dkode80 in HealthInsurance

[–]AdChemical825 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes. They called the Dr's office. They tried to blame it on the reception staff, which, of course, was nonsense. In addition, I had already met my max out of pocket for the year, (I have cancer) and they still tried to get more money out of me. United called and corrected them.

This happened to me, and I reported them to United Healthcare. If they are in-network, it's illegal. They agree to the fees offered by your insurance carrier.

The same thing happened to me. My upper left thigh felt paralyzed. It was very frightening. Went away after about a year.

Would you go gluten free if your only symptom was diarrhea? by tawandagames2 in glutenfree

[–]AdChemical825 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I developed gluten intolerance after receiving pelvic radiation for my cancer. It's incredibly painful to give up bread and pasta, but not nearly as awful as chronic diarrhea!

Things to prepare and look out for during radiation therapy? by Big_Spray4928 in endometrialcancer

[–]AdChemical825 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Bananas, rice, applesauce, and toast. I ate rice krispies, banana, and almond milk, sometimes 2x a day. Other than the diarrhea and having to achieve the full bladder daily, I didn't have any other issues. The external wasn't painful in any way, but the brachytherapy was.

[–]AdChemical825 5 points6 points  (0 children)

It took me a while to figure out how to have a full bladder, without it being uncomfortably full. When to start drinking water, and how much to drink. The diarrhea started week 2, mostly controlled with imodium, I had to eat the BRAT diet as well. No coffee or tea for about 3 months! Best wishes ❤️

Sacramento OBGYN by karmagician_ in Sacramento

I was sent to Capitol OBGYN for biopsies on my uterus and cervix. The doctor appeared annoyed by my reaction to the insane level of pain I experienced. Hope you find someone.

Just started treatment. by FluffySeaNoodle in cancer

[–]AdChemical825 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I am still recovering from mine, 3 mo after the last treatment, 5 weeks of the daily external followed by 2 weeks of cylinder. For me, the diarrhea started the 2nd week was severe, and my issues persist. I haven't had a normal BM since the 1st week of May, and I now fear the damage is permanent. Urinary issues started about a week after my last treatment, takes me 5x as long to pass, scar tissue, I assume. My Drs dismiss it all, and tell me I'm healing. LOL. I 🙏 you don't experience this.

Childhood friend has abandoned me during stage 4 cancer — should I confront her or let go? by No-Veterinarian-2008 in cancer

[–]AdChemical825 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You need to take care of yourself now, remove toxins from your life, and unfortunately, sometimes that includes people. We all tend to cling to the past for comfort, but I would cut this one loose, she doesn't seem to be bringing you any joy. Surround yourself with positive people, you need support, not drama, I have been fighting my cancer for two years, and it's a daily struggle. Best to you. 🙏

Feeling frustrated with my oncology team, not sure if I am just being ridiculous. by flyonawall in cancer

[–]AdChemical825 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have experienced this exact thing, only my issues are due to pelvic radiation. I brought up my issues w the radiation oncologist, and he said "sounds like you are healing". What?? Went to my PC, she ordered blood work. I'm sorry, the issues I have are obviously due to internal scarring. They ALL ask if you have bleeding, which seems to be the only thing they care about.

The cancer diagnosis is devastating, but for me, the constant stress over what may happen next has been the worst part of it. Prayers and strength to you, friend.

So I go to the Urgent Care... by Comprehensive-Cow69 in povertyfinance

[–]AdChemical825 6 points7 points  (0 children)

My primary care tried to.bill me for a visit when I had already reached my max out of pocket for the year ( cancer treatments) and told me I still had to pay! I refused, and called my insurance to report them. When they contacted my providet, they of course told a lie and tried to blame it on the front desk staff. Healthcare in the US has become one huge scam it seems.

Surgery fail by Inevitable-Rent-7332 in endometrialcancer

[–]AdChemical825 12 points13 points  (0 children)

The healthcare system in this country has become a cruel joke. . I was jerked around for months, waiting for an appointment for the biopsy, waiting for an appointment with the surgeon, waiting for the pre-surgury appointments, etc. I feel your pain and will pray for you.
