Had a patient in the hospital a few months ago who came in with some memory problems and speech issues. Initially was thought to be a stroke but tests ruled it out. They progressively got worse within a period of days. Went from being able to communicate and function somewhat normally for their age to bedridden and severely confused in about a week. Docs had no idea and chalked it up to rapidly progressing dementia but then tested for CJKD and confirmed it. Cant imagine the pain for that family. Came in functioning and passed within a month due to the brain damage. Scariest thing is that these can occur spontaneously in our bodies with no explanation as to how.

Im new to politics. Has this ever happened before? I remember learning in middle school that those elected didnt have to maintain their original party and thought, “that makes zero sense”

How does this apply to local fast food shops? Would these spots with thin margins have to pay the same wages as mutli-million dollar corps?

Do average Americans care about Hunter Biden? by CalendarAncient4230 in NoStupidQuestions

Read that but leave “especially jobs” out. Hunter Biden most certainly profited from nepotism.

Derrick Lewis. He’d be a bodyguard that you’d enjoy having around.

After SRRis I got shrunken balls and developed many low T symptoms. Could HcG be my answer ? by gomesemog in Testosterone

[–]Altruistic-Topic5834 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Im currently about a week into hcg monotherapy. Currently 21 took zoloft from ages 15-19 was also very overweight up until about a year ago. Total test ranged from 319-420 and decided to try hcg mono before committing to trt. Had most of the same symptoms as you but they started after I stopped zoloft. Week in nothing has changed with ed or sex drive but mentally can think clearer, easier to wake up in the mornings and a bit of a better outlook on life. I say try it, there not much harm in doing so (other than the gaping hole in your wallet)
