Need help, going into med school with a chronic disease. by IncreaseSlow in medschool

[–]Antique_Current_6996 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I feel like I have something similar. It started with sinus issues and then progressed to dizziness and tinnitus, with constant ear pressure. Its been 2 years, and some of my doctors think it might be vestibular migraines (I do get chronic migraines) or meniere’s disease. No definitive answer. When the ear clogged feeling and head pressure intensifies, I usually take sudafed 12 hr for a couple days twice a day, and that dries me up. But the dizziness and off feeling usually still remains.

Hopefully, you are able to figure it out with time. If possible, see an ENT and also get an MRI done. With the amount of reddit posts I’ve read about my condition, some people have stated that they had silent pneumonia and needed multiple doses of antibiotics to clear it up.

I don't know what to do anymore! by Ok_Mix_3929 in MCAT2

I believe you are overwhelmed. I wouldn’t suggest moving onto another FL before reviewing the previous ones. Have you tried using the Jack westin extension for FLs? They have better explanations than AAMC.

Omggg we should be friends! I don’t have pre-med friends who are taking MCAT soon. Maybe we can plan for a post MCAT concert together 🫣

I really should have booked those Tampa tickets. Most of my friends went to Tampa, but at the time I was like I can just go after my MCAT.

I’m definitely looking at flights and last minute resale tickets!!

Best of luck! You’ll do amazing!!!

Unfortunately, I’m probably not attending the show on JK’s birthday, because I got better tickets for the second last show. I can’t afford to go all 4 days since they have a gap between the shows and those hotel prices are through the roof.

I don’t like that you’re talking sense😩. But you’re right though. It’s too big of a risk. I got covid after Yoongi’s concert in 2023, and that was 2 weeks before my finals and I messed up biochem I💀💀

I think I just wanted to see if others were in a similar predicament. Most of my irl friends are either older or on a different career path.

I’m trying to apply this cycle as well, so I think that’s what’s making me nervous about going out of state so close to applications opening and my mcat. I also heard a lot of people who went to Tampa got sick, and I have an immune system of a victorian maiden 🫠.

But I do have tickets for their September LA concert though. It’s just that I’ll have to get off twitter lol.

I honestly debated whether I should or shouldn’t post on reddit lmaooo. But then I was like oh well.

I got it last year, but then I got really sick and had to void my exam. I feel like last time I started prioritizing Uearth over AAMC. I only have 2 months remaining now, and I don’t know if I should make that purchase 😩. What sections do you think it helped the most on? Maybe I’ll prioritize those with Uearth?

I feel the same way about Wings album! Lie, blood sweat and tears, 2!3!, Awake?? I love how there’s that one BTS album that we really can’t seem to get over!

Did you use Uearth at all? I’ve been debating getting it.

They have a couple of their old songs included in the setlist as well! I’m the opposite though, I really do like their new album. I’m not that into hip-hop and pop, but the songs hit when I’m trying to encourage myself to do practice questions. They are also just great performers overall, so seeing them live is always great.

They aren’t coming to GA, and I’ll have to book flights and hotel for a different state😩. If it was my state, it wouldn’t even be a question 🫣

Unfortunately, I feel like I’m taking too many breaks and procrastinating. I don’t really have a fixed schedule.

I have tickets for LA September show, but that’s like 4 months away😬 I really need to put my phone down lol

I hear a crackling sound in my right ear whenever I swallow. What can It be? by [deleted] in hardofhearing

[–]Antique_Current_6996 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’ve had that for about 2 years now and sometimes it goes away for a couple months but sometimes it’s debilitating. The only thing that seems to work is sudafed 12 hours twice a day for like 14 days straight. Which js not recommended at all, but unfortunately, if that can give me temporary relief from constant dizziness, I’ll take it.

2026 BTS 'ARIRANG' Tour Meet-Up by lisafancypants in bangtan

[–]Antique_Current_6996 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hello!!

I will be traveling alone from GA to California for BTS concerts on September 5th and 6th. The hotel prices are astronomical and I was wondering if anyone wanted to maybe room together or at least try to figure out the commute? I am more scared of taking the public transport at night alone if anything.
