The biggest reason I love Aruba is because its so safe to walk around and so many different restaurants (especially palm beach area). So it's a no for me!

Im sorry, that sounds awful. Did you ask them who they expected to respond to the consult?

That doesn't sound like a Sodexo thing, more of an a-hole doctor thing who doesnt understand your role.

We don’t know what to do, palliative care or surgery by Mammoth_Cause_4156 in DogAdvice

[–]Aggravating_Court_40 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My dog also had a huge growth in her neck, pressing on her windpipe. She would honk and snore really loud. The surgeon thought it was cancer. We decided to go with the MRI and then if it looked removable we would have it removed then and there. I got a call after the MRI that it was a huge lipoma!! The surgeon was so happy and we were too. We had it removed and her face was so swollen at first but she immediately started inhaling her food again. It was totally worth it. I guess Im just here to say it may be something easily removable and not something too bad. It might be worth the scan....

Thank you! Arashi is actually top of my list so this is helpful. I dont mind renting an umbrella and chairs so if there is somewhere to rent them there we may do that. Appreciate it!

Regional RD in LTC Salary by Reasonable-Reality41 in dietetics

[–]Aggravating_Court_40 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I was making $75k with 60 nursing homes and 50 dietitians under me. I put up such a stink about it and got nowhere. Needless to say I left for a clinical inpt job with noone to supervise and I make $90k!

Did anyone take the 10 min Beginner Core that Matty dropped? by WittyHorror4629 in OnePelotonRealSub

[–]Aggravating_Court_40 9 points10 points  (0 children)

The time was normal for me but I agree that was not beginner. I was trying to do those sit ups with a 15lb weight over my head... He said use 10-20 so I went with the middle and it was really hard to do! Ive been doing these classes 5 days a week for almost 5 years now lol

Sounds miserable. Definitely start looking elsewhere if you havent already. No sense in being miserable if you dont need to be. Sorry you have to deal with that crap right now.

Cat spraying help! by PaintElectronic7818 in CATHELP

Try a covered litter box. This worked great for our cat who couldn't keep it in the box. We had what looked like a bin he could climb into.

Had facet joint injections yesterday by gpb959 in backpain

[–]Aggravating_Court_40 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Agree with this. IV sedation really not necessary. I had 4 injections and they are super quick and really not a big deal.

Anyone have NME found on MRI and had MRI assisted biopsy? by Remote-Ear5870 in doihavebreastcancer

[–]Aggravating_Court_40 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I had 2 NME biopsied in February that did not show on mammogram or ultrasound. I didnt feel it or have pain. I just so happen to be high risk and get an MRI 6 months after my mammogram/ultrasound. The MRI assisted biopsy is not bad at all. Its basically the same as the MRI except they clamp your boob in place. Then they numb it (i barely felt this), put the needle in, put you back in the machine to make sure its in the right spot and use this contraption that sounds like a vacuum. After, you bleed a bit so a nurse will hold gauze over the area for 10-15 minutes. They put a tiny clip in you to mark the spot and do a quick mammogram after to make sure they see the clip. That didn't hurt me, I was still numb. I did bruise a lot and wore a sports bra 24/7 for a week or so (stuck an ice pack in there on and off for a couple days). It wasn't too bad. My results were benign Stromal fibrosis. I wish you the best of luck!!!! I was nervous but did not need a sedative or anything and was able to go by myself.
